E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In this paper we want to provide a brief introduction to our current research on the Early to Middle Bronze Age (Hatvan to Füzesabony period) settlement sites in the Borsod plain of North-eastern Hungary. Our work is based on intensive archaeological surface survey, aerial photography, topographical measurements and magnetometer survey that provide important data both on the intra and off-site level. With the results obtained so far, it is possible to provide a much more nuanced picture of both the internal structure of the tell and tell-like Bronze Age sites of our study area and their development through time than was hitherto possible. As an example of the ongoing research we will discuss some results of our work at the site of Tiszabábolna-Fehérlótanya including the surface finds, magnetometry and archaeozoological results. Auszug Nach einem kurzen Überblick über die methodischen Grundlagen des BORBAS Projektes (Borsod Region Bronze Age Settlements) wird in diesem Beitrag der Kenntnisstand zur früh- und mittelbronzezeitlichen Besiedlung (Hatvan- und Füzesabony-Periode) der Borsod-Ebene in Nordostungarn dargestellt. Neue Forschungsergebnisse im Rahmen des BORBAS Projektes erlauben es, ein differenzierteres Bild des Aufbaus der einzelnen Siedlungen und ihrer Entwicklung im Laufe der Zeit zu entwerfen als dies bislang möglich war.

It was supported by the dynamic increase of foreign trade of the NMS, which increased more than the EU average. Thus, the share of this region in foreign trade also grew. The value of the goods exported from the Central and Eastern Euro- pean countries increased and in line with that tendency, the role of logistics services augmented. The transportation and logistics market has grown by double-digit figure for several years which reflects well the dynamism of this market. In line with the increasing oil prices the costs of transporters also grew. The increase of oil prices seems to be a permanent process with which the actors of the sector have to reckon. In the first half of 2005 the transportation sector in Hungary reached a significant growth mainly due to the outstanding performance of the international transportation (approximately +25%). The annual growth of the sector was more than 18% which is significantly higher than the average of the previous years (2.5-4.5%).

    OUR COMMON FUTURE INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE CULTURE 2 OUR COMMON FUTURE: MISKOLC Miskolc? No question Miskolc invites and awaits everybody who imagines his future together with us and who choose this developing city lying in a Northern Hungarian environment as their living space. In this booklet we present our city, with providing a colourful selection of facts only. Let the most important facts speak about our city instead of us: The most convincing among them are: • Available qualified workforce at competitive costs; relatively high population: about 300.000 inhabitants, including the agglomeration • Thanks to the high level dual vocational training system, continuous supply of able and well trained employees is ensured • 3.000 students of engineering at the University of Miskolc: a unique venue in Hungary • Very low employee fluctuation rate <2% Compared to others: Budapest >10%; West Hungary >7% • Excellent infrastructure: motorway, public transportation, energy supply, information communication network • Optimal location for reaching Western and Eastern European markets • Well established database about suppliers having excellent understanding of metals • Availability of highest support intensity is higher than in other regions! • Rich industrial past and technical culture • Beauty of the natural environment • A city offering colourful and diverse cultural, sport and recreational possibilities • Professional and effective investment promoting support ensured by Miskolc Holding And for what more? It was not us but the Financial Times that has recently declared the economic region of Miskolc to be highly attractive in terms of direct foreign investments. Launched among European cities, Miskolc reached the 16th place, out of almost a thousand of applicants and ahead of several major cities of Europe, on the competition searching future investment locations.

  • Assessment of Landscape Conflicts in Motorway Planning, Ne Hungary
    JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL GEOGRAPHY Journal of Environmental Geography 11 (1–2), 27–36. DOI: 10.2478/jengeo-2018-0004 ISSN: 2060-467X ASSESSMENT OF LANDSCAPE CONFLICTS IN MOTORWAY PLANNING, NE HUNGARY Szilvia Mészáros*, Attila Gergely, Zsuzsanna Illyés Department of Landscape Protection and Reclamation, Szent István University, Villányi út 29-43, H-1118 Budapest, Hungary *Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Research article, received 11 March 2018, accepted 25 April 2018 Abstract Field surveys are essential in the Hungarian motorway planning process so that it would be possible to assess their impacts on the landscape, since the available databases are insufficient in respect of listing all the valuable elements of the landscape. The aims of the research are to analyse the impacts of the planned M30 Motorway (located in north-eastern Hungary) on the landscape, to enumerate the cultural and natural valuable elements of the landscape near and within the area to be expropriated, to explore the possibilities of their protection and to outline the possible land use conflicts likely to arise after the implementation of the motorway. The main sources used for the research were: landscape, green space management and environmental protection studies made for the modification of the affected settlements’ urban plans, field surveys alongside the entire track, and existing environmental databases. In the case of M30 motorway, the chosen corridor was mostly acceptable in the sections where the motorway track leads along the track of the existing Main Road 3, because it is fitted to an existing linear artificial landscape element, it is basically on the border of two natural micro- regions and can also fit into the existing land use structure.
