Summary edit

Description
English: Women's jewellery from the cemetery of Lesencetomaj-Piroskereszt
  • Veszprém County, Hungary

At present the grave field of Lesencetomaj-Piroskereszt is the sole large necropolis of Keszthely culture that has been dug and documented in accordance with modern archeological criteria. Up to now, 1737 burials have been archeologically documented; a total of 1790 graves are preserved. Currently known are the southern, eastern, and western boundaries of the burial ground. In a heretofore unique way, the finds here make it possible to trace the the development of certain artifact types (particularly the shape of earrings) that are characteristic of Keszthely culture.

  • Photographed while on display from 22 August 2008 to 11 January 2009 in the exhibition "Die Langobarden. Das Ende der Völkerwanderung" at the Rheinisches LandesMuseum Bonn. On loan from the Laczkó Dezső Múzeum, Veszprém.
Deutsch: Frauenschmuck vom Gräberfeld von Lesencetomaj-Piroskereszt
  • Komitat Veszprém, Ungarn

Derzeit stellt das Gräberfeld von Lesencetomaj-Piroskereszt die einzige nach modernen archäologischen Kriterien erschlossene und dokumentierte große Nekropole der Keszthely-Kultur dar. Bisher wurden 1737 Bestattungen archäologisch dokumentiert, insgesamt sind 1790 Gräber überliefert. Bekannt sind gegenwärtig die südliche, östliche und westliche Begrenzung des Begräbnisplatzes. In bisher einzigartiger Weise lässt sich anhand der Funde die Entwicklung bestimmter für die Keszthely-Kultur charakteristischer Fundtypen (insbesondere die Art der Ohrringe) nachvollziehen.

  • Exponate in der Ausstellung „Die Langobarden. Das Ende der Völkerwanderung“ vom 22.08.2008-11.01.2009 im Rheinischen LandesMuseum Bonn. Leihgaben aus dem Laczkó Dezső Múzeum, Veszprém.
