Abstract

Karcsa is located in the Bodrogköz near to the Hungarian-Slovakian border, in an area not very well known to Iron Age research. During the probe excavations of the Hungarian National Museum in 1999, a Late Iron Age settlement feature was found from which ceramic fragments and a piece of a broken currency bar came to light. Beside the well-known Celtic and Scythian components, a new element could be defined based on the ceramic finds, the origins of which reach beyond the Northern Carpathians.
