Description:This volume is a landmark accomplishment in providing an overview of how archaeology has contributed to a better
knowledge of Hungary’s past and how this discipline evolved during the five hundred years from King Matthias’ reign to our
own age. It presents the many bits and pieces of information that can be gained both with the spade, the archaeologist’s traditional tool, and with more modern research methods, such aerial photography. The authors of the volume are all field archaeologists and renowned experts in their own field, who have collaborated to offer us a glimpse into their profession. This
lavishly illustrated volume will no doubt be useful and enjoyable reading to all those interested in the past.
