Summary edit

Description
English: Rectangular, elaborately decorated belt mount of a spatha.
  • Szentendre, Pest County, Hungary

The belt mount was found in Grave 34 of the Lombard grave field at Szentendre. This was a disturbed grave, presumably of a man.

At Szentendre, a grave field with 91 burials was excavated. This site provides the name for a type of Lombard grave field typical of the north Danubian region which - in contrast to the markedly smaller necropolises in the southern Pannonian region - between 90 and 100 burials took place. Wooden coffins and in some instances mortuary chambers were placed in the graves.

The grave field of Szentendre is counted among the classic Lombard grave fields in Pannonia.

Den Gürtelbeschlag barg Grab 34 im langobardischen Gräberfeld Szentendre. Es handelte sich um eine gestörte, vermutlich männliche Bestattung.

In der Ortslage von Szentendre wurde ein langobardisches Gräberfeld mit 91 Bestattungen ausgegraben. Das Gräberfeld von Szentendre ist namengebend für einen im norddanubischen Raum verbreiteten langobardischen Gräberfeldtyp, der - im Gegensatz zu den deutlich kleineren Nekropolen im südpannonischen Raum - zwischen 90 und 100 Bestattungen umfasst. In die Gruben waren hölzerne Särge und z.T. Totenhäuser eingestellt.

Das Gräberfeld von Szentendre zählt zu den klassischen langobardischen Gräberfeldern in Pannonien.
