Fagaras Country - history in brief - (German: Fogarasch, Fugreschmarkt, Hungarian: Fogaras) - Fagaras was during the Middle Ages, together with Amlas, a traditional Vlach enclave in Transylvania. The first written document mentioning Romanians in Transylvania referred to Vlach lands ("Terra Blacorum") in the Fagaras Region in 1222. In this document, Andrew II of Hungary gave Burzenland and the Cuman territories South of Burzenland up to the Danube to the Teutonic Knights.) - A local legend says that Negru Voda left the central fortress to travel south past the Transylvanian Alps to become the founder of the Principality of Wallachia, although Basarab I is traditionally known as the 14th century founder of the state. - After the Tatar invasion in 1241-1242, Saxons settled in the area. In 1369, Louis I of Hungary gave the Royal Estates of Fagaras to his Distribution of TRAMBITAS Listings across the Great Hungary 1891 vassal, Vladislav I of Wallachia, the territory remained in the possession of Wallachian Princes until 1464. - It was a great period for Fagaras during the reign of Mircea the Great, Wallachian Prince (1386-1418). - The Fagaras region was an administrative unit of the Kingdom of Hungary since the 15th century. Fagaras county was formed in 1876, when the administrative structure of Transylvania was changed. - In 1910, county had a population of 95,174 people. Population by language: Romanian = 84.436, Hungarian = 6.466, German = 3.236 - In 1918 (confirmed by the Treaty of Trianon 1920), the Transylvania became part of Romania. Fagaras territory lies in the present Romanian counties Brasov and Sibiu (the westernmost part). Beclean - Brasov County, ROMANIA Trambitas Family 2009 Beclean (rom.)

Distribution of TRAMBITAS Listings across the United States 2009 TRAMBITAS Valerian Family - history in brief - Romania/Hungary (Transylvania) Valer TRAMBITAS (Valerian TRAMBITAS) was born abt 1875 / 1879 in South Transylvania (Fagaras area). He was Romanian and orthodox. Transylvania was in that time (till 1918) occupied and ruled by the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, and come back to Romania after the First World War. - He met Caterina-Paulina SAVU, (she was born in 1879) and married with her in 1897. The maiden name of Caterina-Paulina's mother was Elena BUCUR (Elena BUCUR died in 1929). Elena BUCUR was married with Dumitru SAVU (SAVULESCU?). - In English language Caterina-Paulina's name is Katherine-Pauline. - From the Immigrations Arrivals List (New York, 1907) her birthplace was Bethlen, also the last residence before leaving Transylvania for USA was the same Bethlen. - Beclean (in Romania from 1918, Hungarian and German name: Bethlen) is today a commune in Brasov County at 5 Km west from Fagaras City, on the National Route DN1. Still today, a lot of TRAMBITAS or TRIMBITAS people live there. Also, Beclean is very close to Netot, (from 1966 Gura Vaii) the village from where the BUCUR Family have the roots. - Caterina-Paulina had 2 sisters, one was "Mother" Melania at the Pasarea Monastery ("Bird" Monastery), near Bucharest (no children) and the second was Marioara DUMITRESCU (1897-1981) lived in Topoloveni, Romania (no children). Valerie TRAMBITAS (Jimmy Darcy) They passed illegally the border (in that time) between Austria-Hungarian Empire and Romania and found work in Bucharest (Romania). Their first 3 children were born in Bucharest. - They were very Christian-traditional family, respect the tradition. In the past (even today), often the first born in a family keeps the first-name of the father (adding an "a", "e" or "ie"). In those times, the Romanian population in Transylvania name their children with the names of Roman Emperors in ancient Roman Empire (Romania came from Rome, Italy) or Greek, to oppose the Hungarian authorities to translate/transcript the names in Hungarian language. - So Valer TRAMBITAS first 3 sons were named Valerie (1898), Alexandru (1901), Traian (1903). In 1906 Valer TRAMBITAS arrived in USA, without his wife and his 3 sons born in Bucharest, Romania. (www.ellisisland.org) Regarding all the entrances between 1903 (Traian's born) and 1907 (arriving of his family in USA-see below) I found: Valiuan Trombitas, Farm labourer, Age: 26 y.o., married Ship of Travel: Chemnitz, Port of Departure: Bremen Date of Arrival: Mar.03, 1906, Date of Depart: Feb.17, 1906. In 1907, coming from Bethlen-Beclean, Transylvania (part of Hungary till 1918), through Hamburg Port (depart 4th April 1907), his wife and his 3 sons arrived at New-York Port (21 April 1907, ship Barcelona). (www.ancestry.com). -The USA Immigrations Officer wrote that they were attempt by Valer TRAMBITAS (from Portland, Oregon - 203 Burnside St.) Distribution of TRIMBITAS Listings across the United States 2009 as husband. Today (2010) the address is Portland, 203 W Burnside St.-click here to see the house. -But the Immigrations Officer wrote the names for the new arrivals as he heard (the correct pronunciation of the name is Trambitzash). So, Trambitas became Trinsbiczas and the others Katalin (30), Valer (9), Alexander (6), Toajan (3). - Here, the things are pretty clear, they are Romanians, Orthodox, no doubt. In USA (Portland, Oregon), Valer and Katherine-Pauline TRAMBITAS had another boy George and a girl Lena. Valer TRAMBITAS and Katherine-Pauline had 5 children: 1. Valerie Visarion (born 1898, Romania - died 1972, Clackamas, OR). 2. Alexandru (Alex) (born 1901, Romania - died 1973, Los Angeles, CA). Alex TRAMBITAS (Jimmy Hussey) 3.

Lena (born 1909 Portland, OR - died as a child) Valer TRAMBITAS died in 1910 (see the USA Census 1910, 1920, 1930). Katherine-Pauline died in 1955, Portland, OR. Her burial place was St. John the Apostle Catholic Cemetery - Oregon City, Clackamas County, Oregon, USA. (Trimbitas, Katherine Pauline, b. 1879, d. 03/02/1955, Block 12, Lot 5 #E).

El trabajo ofre- ce una vision de conjunto de esta Cruzada y del itinerario del rey Andres, quien volvio desengafiado a su Reino. Summary: The main subject matter of this research is an appro- ach to Hungary, during the reign of Andrew Il, and its participation in the Fifth Crusade. To achieve such a goal a well supported study of king Andrew's ambitions in the Balkan region as in the Bizantine Empire is depicted. His marriage with a daughter of the Latin Emperor of Constantinople seems to indicate the origin of his pre- tensions. It also explains the support of the Roman Catholic Church to this Crusade, as well as it offers a detailed description of king Andrew's itinerary in Holy Land.

  • Ecclesiastical Monuments of Brașov/Kronstadt/Brassó and the (Imagined) Topography of a Transylvanian City in Late Medieval and Early Modern Times
    Ecclesiastical Monuments of Brașov/Kronstadt/Brassó and the (Imagined) Topography of a Transylvanian City in Late Medieval and Early Modern Times Liviu CÎMPEANU Institutul de Cercetări Socio-Umane, Sibiu Institute of Social Sciences and Humanities, Sibiu Personal e-mail: [email protected] ECCLESIASTICAL MONUMENTS OF BRAŞOV/KRONSTADT/BRASSÓ AND THE (IMAGINED) TOPOGRAPHY OF A TRANSYLVANIAN CITY IN LATE MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN TIMES Abstract: By definition, a monument has extraordinary features that mark landscape and human minds alike. Without any doubt, the Medieval and Early Modern World of Europe was marked by ecclesiastical monuments, from great cathedrals and abbeys to simple chapels and altars at crossroads. A very interesting case study offers Braşov/ Kronstadt/Brassó, in the south-eastern corner of Transylvania, where historical sources attest several ecclesiastic monuments, in and around the city. Late medieval and early modern documents and chronicles reveal not only interesting data on the monasteries, churches and chapels of Braşov/Kronstadt/Brassó, but also on the way in which citizens and outsiders imagined those monuments in their mental topography of the city. The inhabitants of Braşov/ Kronstadt/Brassó and foreign visitors saw the monasteries, churches and chapels of the city, kept them in mind and referred to them in their (written) accounts, when they wanted to locate certain facts or events. The present paper aims in offering an overview of the late medieval and early modern sources regarding the ecclesiastical monuments of Braşov/Kronstadt/Brassó, as well as an insight into the imagined topography of a Transylvanian city. Keywords: Middle Ages, Ecclesiastical Topography, Historical Sources, Brasov, Transylvania.

Back then I was interested in material culture, focusing on late medieval tableware and import pottery in Transylvania. Arriving to CEU and having the opportunity to work with József Laszlovszky opened up new research possibilities and my interest in the field of landscape archaeology. First of all, I am thankful for the constant advice and support of my supervisors, Professors József Laszlovszky and Katalin Szende whose patience and constructive comments helped enormously in my research. I would like to acknowledge the support of my friends and colleagues at the CEU Medieval Studies Department with whom I could always discuss issues of monasticism or landscape archaeology László Ferenczi, Zsuzsa Pető, Kyra Lyublyanovics, and Karen Stark. I thank the director of the Mureş County Museum, Zoltán Soós for his understanding and support while writing the dissertation as well as my colleagues Zalán Györfi, Keve László, and Szilamér Pánczél for providing help when I needed it.

  • Migration of the Brassó (Brașov) County Csángó: the Impact of Politics, War, and Economy
    © www.kjnt.ro/szovegtar Emese-Gyöngyvér Veres Migration of the Brassó (Brașov) County Csángó: The Impact of Politics, War, and Economy The Csángó people are of two groups: the Moldavian Csángó, who live along the outer rim of what was once the Kingdom of Romania, and the “Seven Villages” Csángó, who live in the arch of the Carpathians near Brassó (Brașov), the near- last Transylvanian city along the former Hungarian-Romanian border. Despite its name, this latter group actually occupies a total of ten municipalities, four of which – Bácsfalu (Baciu), Türkös (Turcheș), Csernátfalu (Cernatu), and Hosszúfalu (Satulung) – form the single village of Négyfalu (Săcele). Near these lie three others – Tatrang (Tărlungeni), Zajzon (Zizin), and Pürkerec (Purcăreni) – and a bit further in the other direction, i.e. towards Kolozsvár (Cluj-Napoca), are Krizba (Crizbav), Barcaújfalu (Satu Nou), and Apáca (Apața). Until 1848, these villages were popu- lated by serfs who laboured for the Brassó Saxons and adhered, under the princi- ple of cuius regio, eius religio, to the Lutheran faith. Though there exist a number of facts from the group’s past to explain how they came into serfdom, as that does not belong to the topic at hand, they will be omitted for the purposes of this paper. Still, it should be pointed out that religion has been not only an important element in their lives, but also a force behind their tendency toward migration. By contrast, the Csángó of Moldavia, who do not share the same origins, are Catholics. In the paper to follow, I will be discussing the impact of various migrations of the inhab- itants of these villages over past two centuries on the lives of the group’s members.

  • A Comparison of the Medieval German Settlement of Prussia and Transylvania
    Issue 4 2014 Sword, Cross, and Plow vs. Pickaxe and Coin: A Comparison of the Medieval German Settlement of Prussia and Transylvania GEORGE R. STEVENS CLEMSON UNIVERSITY The German medieval settlement of Eastern Europe known as the Ostsiedlung was carried out by Germans and the Teutonic Order in both Hungary and Transylvania, but with vastly different results. Of the regions settled during the Ostsiedlung, Transylvania offered colonists some of the strongest incentives to settle there; in addition to an agreeable climate and fertile soil, those who settled in Transylvania also stood to enjoy generous expansions of legal and economic freedoms far beyond the rights they held in their homelands. Yet the Ostsiedlung in Transylvania was arguably a failure compared to the success of the movement in Prussia. Much of this contrast can be explained by comparing the settlement process in each region, conducted largely by peaceful means in Transylvania but by the sword and cross in Prussia. Conquest and conversion supported by secular and ecclesiastical authorities allowed Germans to dominate Prussia and cement the primacy of German language and culture there. By contrast, peaceful settlement left Transylvania’s large indigenous populations intact and independent. This cultural plurality, along with the long journey required to reach Transylvania and inconsistent support for settlement there, ensured German settlers in Transylvania never became more than a minority population. The medieval settlement of Prussia and Transylvania, from here on referred to by its German name, Ostsiedlung, was carried out by Germans and the Teutonic Order in both regions, but to vastly different ends. The German settlement of Transylvania was mostly peaceful, with the majority of settlers being miners, merchants, and peasants.

  • History of Research on the Land of Făgăraş
    STUDIA UBB GEOGRAPHIA, LVIII, 2, 2013, pp. 157 ‐ 168 (RECOMMENDED CITATION) HISTORY OF RESEARCH ON THE LAND OF FĂGĂRAŞ PAULA OLIVIA CIMPOIEŞ1 ABSTRACT. – History of Research on the Land of Făgăraș. The aim of this study is to analyze the scholarly papers and the cartographic documents which mention the Land of Făgăraş as a geographic region. This study is based on detailed consultation of the specialized literature. It reviews the last two centuries of research on the Land of Făgăraş. The importance of our research consists in unveiling the main sources which consider the regional space as a whole and which refer to it as a space that generates identity in different modes. In the last 20 years in Europe we witness a rise in the significance of the cultural region, especially the “land” type entities. They frequently appeared in the countries that share a Latin past. French specialists in territorial planning have adopted a law that confers them the title of project regions because they provide characteristics such as social and economic cohesion leading to sustainable development. Investigating these spaces as well as investigating their former approaches can prove to be very successful for the future purpose of focusing on their competitive advantages in the process of regional planning. Key words: research, cartographic documents, regional identity, Land of Făgăraş, history. 1. INTRODUCTION The present paper catalogues the manners in which the Land of Făgăraş is presented in the specialized literature, in the opinion of Romanian as well as foreign researchers. By means of this paper we seek to contribute to the framing of the main points of view that followed in the scientific debate regarding the land, especially those that emphasize unitary characteristics.

In September 4677 a two-day conference was held in Braşov, Romania (known as Brassó in Hungarian and Kronstadt in German), organised by the Beauftragter der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien, marking the occasion of the F66th anniversary of the coming of the Teutonic Order to the area known as the Burzen- land in Transylvania. The conference was dedicated to the theme of the presence of the Teutonic Order in the region of the Eastern Carpathians from the 7Jth to the 7Kth centu- ries. As the area in question now belongs to different modern countries a number of medievalists and archaeologists from Hungary, Romania and Germany were invited to participate. The conference resulted in the publication of a collection of 7K articles (including 74 which are based on the papers presented at the con- ference), divided into five sections. The volume also includes an index of persons (pp. 4VW–4VF) and geographical locations (pp. 4VF–4[F) giving both German and modern placenames. The first section (‘The European Context’) includes three articles presenting the activities of the Teutonic Order on the frontier of 7Jth-century Transylva- nia within the regional, Central Eastern European context.
