Abstract
This study reports on an Árpád Period site in Mezőhegyes, where remains of an interesting structure were unearthed. Based on the design of the brickwork feature and the significant amount of corrupted roof tiles found in and around it, the structure must have functioned as a roof tile kiln. The best analogies for these roof tiles are found primarily in France (e.g., in Pontigny, Vermenton and Auxerre) and in Egres (Igriș, present-day Romania). Based on the findings, the analogies, and the history of Egres, it seems that the roof tile kiln of Mezőhegyes operated in the 12th century and can be connected to the activities of the Cistercian Order.
