Gołębia 11, 31 007 Kraków, Polska; [email protected] The archaeological site, Apc-Berekalja, is located in northern Hungary, about 70 kms to the northeast from Budapest [2]. The site lies at 132–135 m a. s. l. in the wedge of Great Hungarian Plain (Alföld). It is lo- cated between Mátra and Cserhát Mountains which belong to the North Hungarian Middle Mountain. Great Hungarian Plain is tectonic Pannonian Basin with subsidence movement filled by very thick Quaternary de- posits. It is drained by the Zagyva river what belongs to Tisa basin. There is very flat relief with some rem- nants (called «finger peninsula») of terrace on the right bank and wide flood plain of the river. Therefore flood plain is slightly slope eastward to the Zagyva river, which flows about 1,5 km from the archaeological site. Relief of this flood plain is very flat but some shallow depressions (the Holocene backswamps) lie be- tween terrace’s remnants. On the left bank, approximately 2,5 kms from the site, the volcanic cone of Somlyó hill formed limit of the valley. It is linked with the Mátra Mountains' southwest foothills which is built from volcanic stones, such as andesite, rhyolite, tuffs and its agglomerates. Present day area is completely defor- ested and under agricultural cultivation. An industry of this region is weakly-developed. The site is located at the border area of Heves and Nógrád Counties, about halfway between the villag- es of Apc and Jobbágyi. Very clay sediments, more than 4 m thick, was accumulated in several phases in the backswamp probably during whole Late Glacial and Holocene. First phase of overbank accumulation oc- curred since the Late Glacial and Eoholocene, than phase of soil development, in Mesoholocene, took place. First results of micromorphological studies confirmed that it is soil developed in situ on overbank sediments and it was settled by Neolithic people. An increase of sedimentation rate led to the fossilization of the soil and it could be also the reason of decrease of Neolithic settlement. Buried soil and Neolithic culture was dated at about 6500–6000 BP. A phase of an increase of fluvial activity occurred in valleys of whole Central Europe [1]. Enough often floods during the Neoholocene were the reason that settlement of Roman time were located on the remnants of terrace, not in backswamps on the flood plain. One of the part of geoarchaeological research was geochemical analysis. This analysis provided an informations about concentractions of macro and trace elements in studied deposits. The necessary measure- ments conducted by XRF method. A geochemical background was established on the basis of results for As, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn. The quite high value of this parameter is rather connected with the meaning of Matrá and Cserhát Mountains volcanic stones in enrichment in various elements. It is very good visible on case of chromium and nickel. In buried soil was noted a significant concentration of Cu and Zn which can be con- nected with the presence of cultures from Neolithic. Such powerful flood episodes both in ancient and mod- ern time could lead to mobilization of some elements in deposits of whole area of Zagyva catchment. Cur- 133 rently an agriculture plays a decisive role on the degree of contamination which is usually limited to topsoil, alternatively to shallower layers of subsoil. On the basis of factor analysis (FA) conducted within XRF spec- trometry, an increase of arsenic concentration was caused by human activity. It adequately correlates with the modern way of land use. The high concentrations of another elements reflect a typical geochemical char- acter of volcanic stones, but because of specific structure of investigated deposits, they can be strongly bound by clay fraction. 1.

Świętokrzyska 15, 25–406 Kielce, Polska; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] 2 Czech University Life Sciences in Prague, Faculty of Environmental Science, Kamycka 129, 165 21 Prague 6, Czech Republic; [email protected] Kamionka is a right tributary of the Kamienna river, flowing on the northern part of Holy Cross Moun- 2 tains region in Suchedniów Plateau. River length is about 17 km and the catchment area is about 107 km . o The slope of Kamionka river is 5 /oo. It is a meandering river classified as upland rivers, typical for this re- gion. Catchment area is located within Roman period metallurgy region and later within the Old Polish Indus- trial District where since the Middle Ages number of forges were developed on many rivers. The develop- ment of industry of this period was associated with a local mining of iron ore, which was processed in a near- by forges. At the beginning of the sixteenth century within the catchment there were operated 7 forges. They were located mostly along the Kamionka river. Later the number of those forges were changed. At the turn of the 19th and 20th century, forges were replaced by larger industrial plants. Downstream of old forges in sediments preserved inserts or layers of charcoals. Significant volumes of charcoals and their accumulation may be as- sociated with the close proximity to the old forges. Results of OSL and 14C datings suggest that this material was laid down at a time when in this place was built the first modern forge: 0,44 ± 0,06 ka (UJK-OSL-68) and 40 ± 80 BP (MKL-3250) after 1799 cal. AD respectively. On the floodplain are visible traces of old water reservoirs. These reservoirs was operated by water mills and forges. After drying, they became part of the floodplain. Locally, traces of these ponds are poorly visible and enable them to locate only by drillings in which are found slag layers. Geochemical analysis con- firmed the presence of slags in the sediments of the old ponds in this area. The presence of this material in lake sediments was related to the functioning of forges nearby. Geochemical analysis showed the lack of this type of pollution in the sediments of the floodplain. They exist only in old lakes sediments (PK 40 profile), especially around Ostojów and Suchedniow where was located most of the forges (Fig.). Modern industrial activity in this area also contributed to the build-up of specific deposits on the Kamionka floodplain. The fill- ings of the Holocene paleochannels were found numerous pieces of contemporary ceramics and slags. In recent centuries it occurred to the accumulation of specific types of deposits in the Kamionka catchment. Those sediments are slag in the pond sediments and charcoal layers in the overbank alluvia. The presence of these sediments are associated with forges activity on the river. Slags and charcoals only in pond and abandoned channel fill deposits indicate also a lack of floods which covered whole valley bottom during the Little Ice Age. 134 .

ZOFFMANN * The topographical position and size of the site, the number of detected houses, the presence of the early phase make the Apc-Berekalja I settlement one of the most significant sites of the LBK in Hungary. The ongoing processing of the excavation data provided already some very important observations. The geoarchaeological results demonstrated the presence of the in situ soil of the Neolithic period and effects of floods on the settlement. The study of the chipped and ground stone material coming from the Neolithic features revealed no conspicuous changes in the lithic industry of the settlement from the pre-Notenkopf to Želiezovce phases of the LBK. Lithic raw materials came exclusively from territories to the east of the site, which is an evidence of the isolation of the LBK groups that inhabited Apc.

  • Eger Bull's Blood Project (Heves)
    RENCOM – Workpackage 4 – Hungarian case studies: Eger Bull’s blood project Page 1 Eger Bull’s blood project (Heves) Winegrowers play a major rule in this county. Bull’s blood is one of the two most famous wines in Hungary (the other one is the „old Tokay” from the county next to Heves) which is grown in Eger, the capital city of Heves. After the transition in the early 90’s, many new small farmers have appeared on the hills of Eger, who try to produce Bull’s blood. At this time there wasn’t any approving method to control the quality of wines. This situation was very harmful for the wine-growers who tried to sell quality wines with high prices, and of course it was very harmful for the famous brand, „Bull’s blood”. But many small farmers produced red wine under the brand’s name “Bull’s blood”, whose quality were not suitable, and before the transition, in the foreign markets the brand became the synonym of a “moderate quality” Hungarian red wine, and these bottles abided on the bottom shelves of the supermarkets. Another problem also arose: Eger’s farmers can’t deal with each other if the Bull’s blood has to become the region’s dominant famed high quality wine or it should remain an in quantity produced and within easy reach market-leader red wine. We try to focus on a special network in which actors try to rebuild the brand of the wine in the Hungarian market as well as in the world market.

In this study Valuch explores the life stories of those who participated in these events from six decades ago in an attempt to introduce the most important characteristics determining various life phases from before and after the revolution. Based upon life interviews conducted during the 1990s with former 1956 participants living mainly in the city of Debrecen and its surrounding Hajdú-Bihar County, Valuch’s examination outlines those experiences determining their socialization, including family background, political attitudes predating the revolution and political activity conducted during 1956. His focus will then turn to the issue of how these individuals experienced the period of retribution following the revolution as well as attempts by the Kádár regime to marginalize participants in the 1956 Revolution. What general effect did collaboration with the revolutionary movement have on life during the Kádár regime and the political attitudes held by these individuals? In the final section, factors characterizing life stories from the 1956 period will be analyzed. This is a correction to the original article. For information about the changes made, please see the erratum http://dx.doi.org/10.5195/ahea.2017.272 Keywords: 1956 Revolution, political activity, life stories, the Kádár Regime Biography: Tibor Valuch is a social historian as well as research chair at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Center for Social Sciences Institute in Political Science.

  • A BRIEF HISTORY of the JEWS in HEVES COUNTY, HUNGARY Copyright ©2009 Dr
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE JEWS IN HEVES COUNTY, HUNGARY Copyright ©2009 Dr. Ágnes (née SZEGÕ) ORBÁN, Tiszafüred, Hungary Funded, in part, by the "J. and O. Winter" Foundation INTRODUCTION This work is the result of one and half decades of research. The majority of the material is from Hungarian public collections in the Hungarian State Archives, the Archives of Heves County and the Archives of Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County. Rememberances from interviews are included from the collective memories of Jewish and Christian families in and around Tiszafüred, Hungary. Until 1950, Tiszafüred was a part of Heves County. In 1995, I published some articles with this theme in a book titled: The History and Demography of the Jews in Tiszafüred. While researching the history for this thesis, I discovered a lot of history of the Jews in Heves County. Gratefully, my research efforts were funded, in part, by the "J. and O. Winter" Foundation. RESEARCH GOALS The primary goals of this research was to answer important questions regarding the role Jews played in the following areas: · Jewish immigration and settling in Heves county · Jewish modernization of Heves county · Jewish impact upon agriculture, industry, commerce, society and culture in Heves county · Jewish assimilation in Heves county · Jewish Holocaust history in Heves county RESEARCH Heves County lies on the border of the Northeastern Mountains and the Great Hungarian Plain. At the beginning of the 20th century its territory was 3.761 square kilometres (1452 square miles), the county included six districts, 133 settlements; two cities and four little towns, 255,345 inhabitants lived there.

The first geochemical changes had occurred with the appearance of settled people in Neolithic Age who started farming cultures. However, this primitive cultivation and animals raising had local character, so an introduction of heavy metals to soils, water and air was limited to concrete areas. What is most important, changes which occurred in Neolithic Age was convertible. Irreversible and sometimes global distur- bances was started by Industrial Revolution in 18th century. Therefore the part of ele- ments have been running in natural cycle (for example Zn, As, Pb) or its migration accelerated (22). It is worth remembering that part of these elements represent of harmful element group called by P e r e l m a n (14) as excessive elements (depend- ing on the geochemical landscape). An increased content of these substances is often dangerous for biosphere because its toxicity. In this paper analyzed a degree of contamination five heavy metals: chromium, copper, nickel, lead and zinc, and also one semi-metal, arsenic.
