Jászság ist die westlich von der Theß liegende, durch die Flüsse Zagyva und Tarna und durch den Bach Ágó umgeschossene mit Auen bedeckte Landschaft auf der Tiefebene. Im XIII. Jahrhundert siedelten sich auf diesem Gebiet die mit den Kumanen nach Ungarn kommenden Jassen von Steppeniranern Abstam- mung an, die sich sowohl sprachlich, religiös, trachtlich, als auch in ihrer Le- bensweiß von der ungarischen Beöikerung des Landes beteutend unterschi e- den. Das Wirtschaftliche, geistige und religiöse Zentrum des Gebietes ist von An- fang an die Stadt Jászberény, die in den Quellen zuerst im Jahre 1357 in der Na- mensform „Beren" erwähnt wurde. Im Jahre 1550 ist es schon eine Siedlung mit städtischem Rang, obwohl sie schon früher so betrachtet wurden und es ist Ver- waltungsitz sowohl in der Zeit der Türkennherrschaft als auch in der Zeit des Dreierbezirkes. Gleich von der Ansiedlung an genossen die Jassen verschiedene Vorrechte (Steuer- tind Zollfreiheit, ein von den anderen Komitaten unabhängiges Leben, selbständige Vervaltung, Blutbann), für die sie dem König für ewig Wehrdienst schuldeten. Nach der Türkennherrschaft, im Jahre 1702 waren seine Privilegien in Gefahr, als das Gebiet und das Volk von Jassen und zusammen mit den zwei Kumanien dem Deutschen Ritterorden von dem Kaiser Leopold I. für 500,000 Goldgulden verkauft wurde. Die Jassen und die Kumanen ergaben sich aber in dem Verlust ihrer uralten Privilegien nicht, im Jahre 1745 wurden sie nämlich für eigenes Geld zurückgezahlt. Diese berühmte jasskumanische Redemption (Selbsterlösung) gab dem Jassen die alte Freiheit und Privilegien zurück und eröffnete allmählich den Weg des wirtschaftlichen Aufschwungs. Mit dem eigenartigen Verwaltungssystem des jasskumanischen Dreierbezir- kes und damit zusammen mit dem grcßten Teil der Vorrechte wurden im Jahre 1876 aufgeräumt. Der Wirkungsbereich von Jászberény wurde von diesem Zeit- punkt an in bedeutendem Maß vermindert, und die neue Lage beschränkte stark die weiteren Möglichkeiten der Entwiklung. 3 EDIT BATHÓ Die Jászság ist heute von 18 Siedlungen (4 Städte, 14 Dörfer) gebildet. Die Hauptstadt von Jászság ist Jászberény, die eine gemütliche Stimmung, 28,000 Einwohner, entwickelte Industrie hat und ist reich an Kunstdenkmälern. Die Jassen sind heute auch sehr stolz auf ihre ehemalige Privilegien, histori- sche und volkstümliche Traditionen und natürlich auf ihre Identität. In Jászberény, der ehemaligen Residenzstadt der Bezirke Jász-Kun trat 1873 - unter den ersten in Ungarn - der Gedanke der Gründung eines Museums auf. Größter Betreiber dieses Anliegens war der Wizebürgermeister Orbán Sipos, der als Herzensache ansah, dass die geschichtlichen Denkmäler des Gebietes Jász an einen würdigen Platz gelangen und so Nachwelt erhalten bleiben. Das Jász- Museum, welches bei der Gründung in einem der Hofgebäude des Rathauses Platz fand, wurde am 24. Dezember 1874 der Öffentlichkeit übergegeben. Die ständig wachsende Sammlung wurde später mehrmals umgesiedelt, bis im Jahre 1931 der ständige Paltz für das Museum im leer stehenden Pferdestall des Rat- hauses endlich gefunden wurde. Seitdem funktioniert das Museum in dem, im Jahre 1842 im klassizistischen Stil mit dorischen Säulen gebauten, Kunstdenkmal- Gebäude und sammelt und bewahrt mit Ausdauer die schriftlichen und sachli- chen Dokumente der Geschichte der Jász Region. Die teuerster Schatz des Jász Museums ist das so genanntes Lehel Horn oder Jász-Horn, an das sich eine unserer schönsten Heldensagen, die Lehel-Sage an- knüpft. Über den Zeipunkt und über die Umstände, wann und wie das Horn nach Jászberény kam, stehen uns keine bestimmten Angaben zur Verfügung. Nach den jetzigen Angaben der wissenschaftlichen Forschungen ist 43 cm lange, aus Elfenbein wunderbar geschnitzte Horn, im 11. oder 12. Jahrhundert in Kijev ge- fertigt. Annämlich ist es in einer Werkstatt gemacht, wo die Meister die Merkma- le der Zierkunst aus Byzanz gut gekannt haben, sie haben aber den örtlichen An- forderungen und Bedingungen angepasst. Das verzierte Horn gelang wahr- scheinlich im Laufe der jász (alanisch)- russischen Beziehungen zu einem der Jäsz-Kapitänen und so haben die nach Ungarn ziehenden Jászén mitgenommen. Das Horn symbolisierte in jeder Zeit Epoche die Zusammenhörigkeit des Jas- sens. Die ehemaligen Jasz-Kapitäne haben es oft an ihrer Seite oder an ihrer Schulter, als das Zeichen ihrer Macht getragen, und haben ihren geerthen Gästen bei feierlichen Gelegenheiten im Jász-Horn Getränke angeboten. Den Jäszkapitä- nen gebührte die letzte Ehre, dass das Jászhorn auf ihren Sarg gelegt wird. Auch heutzutage ist das Horn der teuerste Schatz der Jassen, das bloß bei wichtigen Gelegenheiten aus dem „Heiligtum" genommen wird und man es zu großer Freude des Publikums ertönen lä ßt. Die Tätigkeit des Jász Museums wurde in den vergangenen 13 das Wirken von zahlreichenden hervorragenden Direktoren garantiert: z.B. Viktor Hild und János Banner Archäologen, Kálmán Réz Historiker, József Csalog Archeologe, Sándor Erdész und János Tóth Ethnograph. Ab 1950 gab es eine bedeutende Ver- änderung im Leben des Museums, welches zu diesem Zeitpunkt in staatliche Verwaltung gelangte und als ein Teilmuseum der Bezirks-Museumsorganisation weiter funktionierte. Das Museum arbeitet heute auf diese Weise, aber wir be- 4 JÁSZBERÉNY IST DIE HAUPTSTADT VON JÁSZÉN kommen in jedem Jahr eine bedeutungsvolle Summe zu unserer wissenschaftli- che und kulturelle Arbeit von der Selbstverwaltung von Jászberény.

  • The Stage and Inheritance
    1 The Stage and Inheritance he Indian subcontinent is the only subcontinent in the world. That in itself Ttells us that India possesses a unique geography while also being intrinsi- cally linked to the larger continent, Asia. These two impulses, a pull toward engagement as part of a larger whole and a push to be apart due to a unique ge- ography, have influenced India’s history and behavior through the ages and have determined the nature of her engagement with the world. Geography matters because it has consequences for policy, worldviews, and history. The “big geography” of Eurasia, to which the Indian subcontinent is at- tached, divides that landmass into a series of roughly parallel ecological zones, determined largely by latitude, ranging from tropical forest in the south to northern tundra. In between these extremes, are temperate woodlands and grasslands, desert-steppe, forest-steppe, the forest, and more open taiga. The zone of mixed grassland and woodland was the ecological niche for settled ag- riculture to develop in two areas—in southwest Asia, from the Nile valley to the Indus valley, and in southeast Asia including China—where civilizations, states, and empires grew. Of the two, its geography enabled southwest Asia to communicate easily. Throughout history, from the Nile to the Indus and later the Ganga, exchanges, migrations, and change were the rule with civilizations growing and developing in contact with one another even though they were separate geographically.1 The topography of the Indian subcontinent is open on three sides: the west, south, and east and is blocked off to the north by the Himalayan range.

Miceli** Abstract: Throughout history, religious and political authorities have had a mysterious attraction to each other. Rulers have established state religions and adopted laws with religious origins, sometimes even claiming to have divine powers. We propose a political economy approach to theocracy, centered on the legitimizing relationship between religious and political authorities. Making standard assumptions about the motivations of these authorities, we identify the factors favoring the emergence of theocracy, such as the organization of the religion market, monotheism vs. polytheism, and strength of the ruler. We use two sets of data to test the implications of the model. We first use a unique data set that includes information on over three hundred polities that have been observed throughout history. We also use recently available cross-country data on the relationship between religious and political authorities to examine these issues in current societies. The results provide strong empirical support for our arguments about why in some states religious and political authorities have maintained independence, while in others they have integrated into a single entity.

  • The Romance Population in the Medieval Kingdom of Hungary
    ANALELE BANATULUI, S.N., ARHEOLOGIE ISTORIE, XXII, 2014 http://muzeulbanatului.ro/mbt/istorie/publicatii/ab.htm THE ROMANCE POPULATION IN THE MEDIEVAL KINGDOM OF HUNGARY Peter Bučko* Keywords: Romance population; medieval Hungary; Srem; Spiš; Transylvania, Tokaj; pilgrims; Hospitallers; Templars Cuvinte cheie: populaţie romanică; Ungaria medievală; Srem; Spiš; Transilvania; Tokaj; pelerini; Ospitalieri; Templieri (Abstract) Medieval kingdom of Hungary was since its very begining founded on the basis of multiethnicity and openness to foreigners. Foreigners in Hungary, especially in the 11th and 12th century came from Western Europe. Great immigration waves of the romance population are documented mostly during the reign of king Géza II (1141 – 1162), when they managed to settle in peripheral regions of the country and increase the population and signicance of weakly populated regions. Foreigners in the 12th recieved privileged status as the „guests“. In the 11th and 12th century these guests have settled in Srem, Spiš, Transylvania and Tokaj. Some information about Srem region are provided by crusades chronicles. In Srem there was a village called Francavilla, which belonged to the oldest and most important romanesque settlement in Hungary. e Guests in Transylvania had their own church organization and there were several bishops of Transylvania and Bihar/Oradea of western european origin. Other regions with Romanesque population – Spiš and Tokaj laid on international routes. e collegiate chapter of Spiš even owned vineyards in Tokaj – in Sárospátak, one of the oldest Hungarian cities with privileges. A large number of documented pilgrimage passing through Hungary could also stand behind the increase of new romance population in the country. Additional aspect of the Crusades was the creation of religious orders, the Knights Templar and the Hospitallers, who just few decades after their formation appeared in Hungary and were engaged in the life of Hungarian kingdom.

  • Anna Komnene's Narrative of the War Against The
    GRAECO-LATINA BRUNENSIA 19, 2014, 2 MAREK MEŠKO (MASARYK UNIVERSITY, BRNO) ANNA KOMNENE’S NARRATIVE OF THE WAR AGAINST THE SCYTHIANS* The Alexiad by Anna Komnene is well-known. At times it raises controversial issues (e.g. concerning “full” authorship of the Byzantine princess), but all in all it represents a very valuable source of information. In this paper the author strives to examine just how precise and valuable the pieces of information she gives us in connection with the war of her father emperor Alexios Komnenos (1081–1118) against the Scythians (the Pechenegs) are. He also mentions chronological issues which at times are able to “darken” the course of events and render their putting back into the right context difficult. There are many inconsistencies of this type in Anna Komnene’s narrative and for these reasons it is important to reestablish clear chronological order of events. Finally the author presents a concise description of the war against the Pechenegs based on the findings in the previous parts of his paper. Key words: Byzantium, Pechenegs, medieval, nomads, Alexiad, warfare The Alexiad by Anna Komnene1 is well-known to most of the Byzan- tine history scholars. At times it raised controversial issues (e.g. concerning “full” or “partial” authorship of the Byzantine princess),2 but all in all it represents a valuable written source. Regardless of these issues most of the scholars involved agree that it will always remain a unique piece, a special case, of Byzantine literature,3 despite the obvious fact that Anna Komnene’s * This work was supported by the Program of „Employment of Newly Graduated Doc- tors of Science for Scientific Excellence“ (grant number CZ.1.07/2.3.00/30.0009) co-financed from European Social Fund and the state budget of the Czech Republic.

  • 1111 Years Ago... : the Battle in Pressburg In
    1111 years ago… The Battle in Pressburg in 907 Edited by Lajos Gubcsi PhD, 2018 he Battle at Pressburg in 907 34 The Battle at Pressburg in 907 35 The Military and Political Background to the Battle hen deciding on the primary aspects of warfare – organisation, defensive Wcapabilities, standing forces and combat readiness – it is vital to assess current threats and prepare to address them. fter the Hungarians had taken possession – or at least military control – of the Aentire Lesser Hungarian Plain east of the Fischa, Leitha and Morava rivers in 907, they set the background to the Battle of Pressburg and attained the conditions they needed to fight it. The first stage in realising these conditions was the taking of Pannonia by the chieftain Kurszán – leader of the Hungarians together with Árpád – in 900, which pushed the eastern boundary of the western marches out into the Austrian Marches. he conditions subsequently came fully into place between 902 and 906, when Tthe Hungarians consolidated their positions on the flanks. To the west, on the northern flank, the forces of the Tribal Alliance finally overcame the Frank-aligned Moravians in 906, detaching Moravia from the Empire. There were in fact two major events in the region. One was the extinction of the Principality of Moravia, and the other the final defeat of the Bavarians in Moravia. It is highly likely that some Moravians entered into an alliance with the Hungarians. It was the situation itself, however, that created the tension. The Tribal Alliance (about to become the Hungarian Principality) had to keep its forces on constant alert to defend the lands it had conquered.
