Descripción del sitio
Madaras boasts an eventful history. On the ridge of Telecskai hills the traces of an almost twenty thousand-year-old settlement from the early Stone Age have been recovered. With assiduous work, the archeologist Dr Mihály Kőhegyi carried out research for several years and, on the fields of Madaras, he unearthed Central Europe's most renowned Sarmatian settlement and graveyard. The mounds hid late Sarmatian and Hun burial places. During the excavations, Árpádian-age graves and the foundations of a church were also discovered.
