András Pálóczi-Horváth The method of processing of the archaeological material and the medieval households of the deserted village of Szentkirály Szentkirály, a deserted medieval village lies in the Danube-Tisza Interfluve, 20 km east of Kecskemét, in the area of the Calvinist church of the modern village. The archaeological investigation of the 15-16th century village first was carried out by the Katona József Museum in 1969, from 1971 to 1990 it was the research program of the Hungarian National Museum and the Agricultural Museum. The archaeological investigation was finished in 1990. The medieval village can be followed on the 900 m surface long on a NW-SE oriented hill. 20 dwelling houses and 29 outbuildings were revealed during the excavation, 300 pits, ditches and other features were found. In the medieval cemetery around the church 408 graves were excavated. This place has been inhabited for 6500 years: the remains of earlier cultures were found too, including a settlement of the Árpádian Age (11 th— 13th century), a pagan cemetery from the 10th11th century, a Sarmatian grave and settlement dated to the 3rd-4th century, Late Bronz Age settlement remains and graves, and a Copper Age settlement (Tiszapolgár Culture). In the centre of the late medieval settlement, around the Calvinist church, three tofts were excavated (no. 4-6). The structure of the toft, the relation of the houses to the outbuildings could be investigated very well. The first solid, permanent houses were built in the first half of the 15th century, life continued until the late 16th, early 17th century. The total number of the archeological assemblages excavated in the medieval village of Szentkirály amounts to about 7080000 objects. From these assemblages 21429 objects from the household no. 6 (building no. 25-32, 15th-16th century) were submitted to detailed sample analysis. Household inventories included mostly pottery wares: pots, lids, cups, jugs, jars etc. came from different pottery workshops (20130 objects, 93,9 % of the archaeological material, mainly local ceramics). Only small fragments of fine table vessels (7,7 %) and glass vessels came to light. Some grey, reduced burnt Austrian pottery was found too (2,8 % of the pottery). The tile-stove was built of clay and ceramic tiles (11,8 % of the pottery). This stove was built according to contemporary aristocratic stoves, but in a more simple form. 222
