DescriptionGrave goods from the Avar cemetery of Gyenesdiás, Hungary - rings.jpg
English: Rings and earrings from the Avar cemetery of Gyenesdiás
  • Zala County, Hungary

Up——to now, 351 burials (about two-thirds of the total number) have been documented at the "Avar cemetery," which was in use from 630——to the early 9 century. Relatively few weapons were found in the graves. About 20 burials were accompanied with a horse, as was characteristic for numerous Avar men's graves. A basket-shaped earring pendant typical of Keszthely culture was discovered in the grave of only one woman who had been buried in accordance with heathen ritual. The largest. And richest graves were, with a single exception, already robbed during the Avar era.

Grave 64
On the north side of the burial pit, a man was interred in a wooden coffin with a reflex bow and "saber," the characteristic weapons of a middle Avar mounted warrior of the middle period (670 to ca. 715). A harnessed horse lay on his right side, facing in the opposite direction. The front part of the horse and part of the coffin were covered with a large goat skin.
2. Gold coin (solidus), joint minting of Constans II and Constantine IV, Constantinople between 654 and 659.
3. Pair of golden ear pendants, decorated with granulation.
4. Golden finger ring. The head of the plate ring has an architectural decoration, with a pyramid resting on four small pillars. An almandine is inset on the peak.
5. Golden finger ring. The head of the plate ring has an architectural decoration, with a funnel resting on six small, notched pillars. The stone inlay is lacking.

  • Photographed while on display from 22 August 2008 to 11 January 2009 in the exhibition "Die Langobarden. Das Ende der Völkerwanderung" at the Rheinisches LandesMuseum Bonn. On loan from the Balatoni Múzeum Keszthely.
Deutsch: Fingerringe und Ohrringe vom awarischen Gräberfeld von Gyenesdiás
  • Komitat Zala, Ungarn

Nach 630 bis Anfang 9. Jahrhundert

Von dem awarischen Gräberfeld, das nach 630 bis Anfang des 9. Jahrhunderts benutzt wurde, sind bisher 351 Bestattungen dokumentiert (ca. zwei Drittel des Gesamtbestandes). In den Gräbern fanden sich relativ wenige Waffen, 20 Bestattungen war, wie dies charakteristisch für zahlreiche awarische Männergräber ist, ein Pferd zugeordnet. Ein Körbchenohrring als typisches Objekt der Keszthely-Kutur konnte nur im Grab einer Frau entdeckt werden, die nach heidnischem Ritus bestattet worden war. Die größten und reichsten Gräber wurden, mit einer Ausnahme, bereits in der Awarenzeit geplündert.

Grab 64
An der Nordseite der Grabgrube war mit den charakteristischen Waffen eines mittelawarischen Reiterkriegers - Reflexbogen und Säbel - ein Mann in einem Holzsarg bestattet. In entgegen gesetzter Richtung lag an seiner rechten Seite ein aufgeschirrtes Pferd. Der vordere Teil des Pferdes und ein Teil des Sarges waren mit dem Fell einer großen Ziege bedeckt. Die Bestattung datiert in das mittlere Drittel des 7. Jahrhunderts.

2. Goldmünze (Solidus), gemeinsame Prägung Constans II. und Constantinos IV., Konstantinopel zwischen 654 und 659.
3. Ohrgehängepaar aus Gold, mit Granulation verziert.
4. Fingerring aus Gold. Der Kopf des Plattenringes ist architektonisch verziert, auf vier Säulchen ruht eine Pyramide; an der Spitze eine Almandineneinlage.
5. Fingerring aus Gold. Der Kopf des Plattenringes ist architektonisch verziert, auf sechs gekerbten Säulchen ruht ein Trichter. Die Steineinlage fehlt.
