The kitchen of the noble Rozgonyi family : The kitchen in the Castle of Csókakő in the 15th century, as reflected by pottery finds

Abstract

The Castle of Csókakő is one of the Hungarian forts with Árpádian Age roots. It was owned by several prominent noble families and even the king himself for a pretty long period. In the course of the two decades of field research, the relics of the building complex have been almost entirely excavated. In 2022, a new project created an opportunity to start processing the recovered vast find material. This paper presents a minor part of the pottery found in the one-time inner courtyard of the lower castle, dating to the 15th century when the building complex was the property of the Rozgonyi family.
