  • Origin of Bank Filtered Groundwater Resources Covering the Drinking Water Demand of Budapest, Hungary
    ORIGIN OF BANK FILTERED GROUNDWATER RESOURCES COVERING THE DRINKING WATER DEMAND OF BUDAPEST, HUNGARY I. FORIZS Laboratory for Geochemical Research of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences J. DEAK Water Resources Research Centre Pic. Budapest, Hungary Abstract - The ratio of Danube water/infiltrated precipitation has been determined using stable oxygen isotope data on four parts of the protection area of the bank filtered water works supplying drinking water for Budapest, Hungary. These ratios comparing to those cal- culated by hydraulic modeling rarely match each other. The Danube water transit time calcu- lated for few wells by isotopic data are usually shorter than those determined by hydraulic modeling. The relation between the 8 O values and the nitrate, chloride and sulfate pollut- ants shows that the source of the pollutants is on the island area (sewage water, agricultural activity and salt used for de-icing asphalt roads). 1. INTRODUCTION The drinking water demand of more than two million inhabitants of Budapest is mainly covered by bank filtered water of the River Danube. In 1990 the average drinking wa- ter consumption of Budapest was 976,000 m3/d [1], and it was 780,566 m3/d in 1995 [2]. The bank filtered wells are located on the both sides of the Danube north and south of Budapest, in Budapest, and on the bank shores of the Szentendre Island and Csepel Island (Fig. 1). The ratio of the Danube water and the infiltrated precipitation in the supplied water is a very important question related to the drinking water quality. The infiltrated precipitation is potentially polluted by agricultural activity and communal waste water of unsewered settle- ments.

  • Changing Settlements in a Hungarian Forest in the Middle Ages1
    PILIS: CHANGING SETTLEMENTS IN A HUNGARIAN FOREST IN THE MIDDLE AGES1 Péter Szabó Pilis is a still visible forest in the heart of historical Hungary, covering an area of approximately fifty-five thousand hectares. In the Middle Ages, it was surrounded by the most significant lay and ecclesiastical centres of the Hungarian Kingdom: Esztergom, where one of the archbishops of Hungary is based; Buda, the most important royal centre from the thirteenth century on; and Visegrád, a royal castle of primary importance. Including a fourth town (Fehérvár) at a relatively small distance, the territory was called medium regni in the Middle Ages. Although the history of the four towns has been studied often and from many points of view,2 not much has been said about the territory that lies among them: the Pilis forest. The region comprises two separate mountains, one is called Pilis, the other one Visegrádi mountain. Nevertheless, the traditional usage is to refer to the whole area as Pilis. To the north and east, its boundary is the Danube, whereas to the southwest the border-line is the valley of Pilisvörösvár, enclosing a triangularly shaped territory, with the three castles on the edges. Before one attempts to examine the settlement structure of Pilis, some preliminary remarks on the history of the area are inevitable. The most important fact is that Pilis was a royal forest all through the Middle Ages, which means that it was under deliberate protection and control of the royal family, and also served as a most favoured hunting preserve. The second significant element in the history of the region was the strong presence of two monastic orders: the Cistercians and the Paulines, with one and three monasteries, respectively.

  • Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry C. 1700-1848
    Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry c. 1700-1848 Robert William Benjamin Gray UCL Thesis submitted for a PhD in History, 2009 1 I, Robert William Benjamin Gray, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 25th September 2009 2 Abstract This thesis examines the nature of lord-peasant relations in the final stages of Hungarian seigneurialism, dating roughly from 1700 to the emancipation of the peasantry in 1848. It investigates how the terms of the peasants’ relations with their lords, especially their obligations and the rights to the land they farmed, were established, both through written law and by customary practice. It also examines how the reforms of this period sought to redefine lord-peasant relations and rights to landed property. Under Maria Theresa land reform had been a means to protect the rural status quo and the livelihood of the peasantry: by the end of the 1840s it had become an integral part of a liberal reform movement aiming at the complete overhaul of Hungary’s ‘feudal’ social and economic system. In this period the status of the peasantry underpinned all attempts at reform. All reforms were claimed to be in the best interests of the peasantry, yet none stemmed from the peasants themselves. Conversely, the peasantry had means to voice their grievances through petitions and recourse to the courts, and took the opportunity provided by the reforms to reassert their rights and renegotiate the terms of their relations to their landlords.

    Lo Tishkach Foundation European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative Avenue Louise 112, 2nd Floor | B-1050 Brussels | Belgium Telephone: +32 (0) 2 649 11 08 | Fax: +32 (0) 2 640 80 84 E-mail: [email protected] | Web: www.lo-tishkach.org The Lo Tishkach European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative was established in 2006 as a joint project of the Conference of European Rabbis and the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. It aims to guarantee the effective and lasting preservation and protection of Jewish cemeteries and mass graves throughout the European continent. Identified by the Hebrew phrase Lo Tishkach (‘do not forget’), the Foundation is establishing a comprehensive publicly-accessible database of all Jewish burial grounds in Europe, currently featuring details on over 9,000 Jewish cemeteries and mass graves. Lo Tishkach is also producing a compendium of the different national and international laws and practices affecting these sites, to be used as a starting point to advocate for the better protection and preservation of Europe’s Jewish heritage. A key aim of the project is to engage young Europeans, bringing Europe’s history alive, encouraging reflection on the values that are important for responsible citizenship and mutual respect, giving a valuable insight into Jewish culture and mobilising young people to care for our common heritage. Preliminary Report on Legislation & Practice Relating to the Protection and Preservation of Jewish Burial Grounds Hungary Prepared by Andreas Becker for the Lo Tishkach Foundation in February 2009 with the support of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany & the Conference of European Rabbis.
