| Abstract | The session explores from three different topical (archaeology, urbanization and custom), as well as chronological angles (the post-Roman period, the High and the Late Middle Ages) the features of communities that inhabited for longer or shorter time spans the territories which became the eastern parts of the Hungarian realm and are most commonly known as the Banate and Transylvania. The presentations aim at creating the necessary background for a much needed interdisciplinary study of these features and of the regions that they came to define. |
