KOVÁCS TIBOR, MAGOS GÁBOR & URBÁN LÁSZLÓ ABSTRACT: (Rare and protected insects (Insecta) in the area of the Mátra and Tarnavidék II.) This paper provides locality data of 106 insect species from the Mátra Mountains, the Tarna Region and the Uppony Hills. Eight spe- cies are of community interest listed in the Habitats Directive (Cerambyx cerdo, Cucujus cinnaberinus, Limoniscus violaceus, Lucanus cervus, Osmoderma eremita, Probaticus subrugosus, Rosalia alpina, Saga pedo); one species (Osmoderma eremita) is strictly protected and 49 species are protected in Hungary. Species interesting from faunistical point of view: Omoglymmius germari, Osmoderma eremita, Anthaxia plicata, Cerophytum elateroides, Megapenthes lugens, Podeonius acuticornis, Aplocnemus integer, Prostomis mandibularis, Tetratoma desmarestii, Mycetoma suturale, Necydalis ulmi. The following species are new to the Mátra Mountains: Omoglymmius germari (Rhysodidae); Anthaxia plica- ta (Buprestidae); Cerophytum elateroides (Cerophytidae); Ampedus elegantulus, A. nigerrimus, A. nigroflavus, Ischnodes sanguinicollis, Lacon querceus, Megapenthes lugens, Podeonius acuticornis, Reitterelater bouyoni (Elateridae); Chlorophorus hungaricus, Paracorymbia fulva, Necydalis ulmi (Cerambycidae); Camptorhinus simp- lex, C. statua (Curculionidae). The following natural habitats are especially valuable on the basis of their insect fauna (taking into the considera- tion a previous paper on the same area): Ágasvár – Ágasvár-oldal, Cserepes-tetõ, Disznó-tetõ – Fekete-tó, Ezerháztetõ – Szénégetõ – Tót-hegyes, Kisgombosi-legelõ, Mraznica-tetõ – Tõkés-kút-tetõ, Oroszlánvár, Óvár – Óvár-oldal, Som-hegy, Úrráteszi-rész (Mátra Mountains); Burja-hegyese, Debornya-fõ, Kis-Nádú-völgy, Ökör-hegy, Szállás- verõ-hegy, Szederjes-verõ, Vajdavár (Tarna Region); Damasa-hegy, Damasa-szakadék (Uppony Hills).

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.

    Valuch, Tibor. “Following the Life Stories of Participants in the 1956 Hungarian Revolution.” Hungarian Cultural Studies. e-Journal of the American Hungarian Educators Association, Volume 9 (2016) DOI:10.5195/ahea.2016.253 Following the Life Stories of Participants in the 1956 Hungarian Revolution1 Tibor Valuch Abstract: To date, analyses of the 1956 Revolution have devoted little attention to examining the events pertaining to this period from the aspect of social history. 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.

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.
