Abstract
AbstractNemeske still belongs to the sparsely researched area of Baranya County. Here during plowing human bones came to light. Archaeologists of the Janus Pannonius Museum conducted a rescue excavation and an instrumental survey, too. During the excavation three Árpádian period tombs were found. In surway trenches traces of several demolished Roman walls were observed. The most interesting find is a bronze plate depicting an armed rider, a lion and an altar.
Highlights
The archaeological researches in Baranya County are exactly so unequal as in other counties
In addition to Roman coins found in a ploughed field during the instrumental survey, pieces of brick, stone, and mortar indicated that most of the underground remains of the buildings had already been destroyed
A column-altar ensemble appears with a statue on the mosaic of Villa Daphne in Antioch (Antakya, Turkey) that can be associated with Emperor Constantine hunting73 (Fig. 10/8)
Summary
The archaeological researches in Baranya County are exactly so unequal as in other counties. Prior to the 1989 change in the form of Hungarian state and government system the known archaeological sites were denser around towns of the museums, or the particular interest of an enthusiastic researcher shaped further this picture. The collection area was expanded under the new state, the number of known archaeological sites increased in the territory of large-scale investments, highway constructions and some of the less researched areas. Nemeske still belongs to the sparsely researched area of the county, it is far from the museums of Pecs and Kaposvar (Fig. 12)
