Csaba Bálint - Eszter Soós - Béla Török PRELIMINARY REPORT ON THE ANDORNAKTÁLYA-KIS-RÉT-DŰLŐ HUN AGE SITE Near Andornaktálya, a part of a settlement was excavated during the construction work of the M25 motorway on a hill ridge in the western part of the Eger stream in late spring of 2017. The settlement remains can be dated preliminary to the Hun Age (5th century AD). A part of a farmstead-like settlement was unearthed at the site. A semi-sunken building with postholes at its corners and in the axis, storage pits and two stone objects (with unknown function), and rows and groups of post-holes, suggesting the previous existence of surface structures were situated on the slope. Apart from the storage pits and a large amount of whole vessels, the archaeozoological material and a large millstone also suggest food production. The cutted antler fragments and a large iron hammer, found extremely rare in the contemporaneous sites imply activities of bone and metal processing. Beside these, double-sided antler combs, a fragments of a late Antique glass vessel, iron brooch with inverted foot, amber bead and other bone and metal tools came to light. The ceramic material of the settlement consist of wheel-turned, grainy pots and fine Murga-type jugs and biconical bowls with burnished decoration show a transitional characteristics between the Hun and the Gepidic pottery. Later periods are represented only by one building and a few pits at the site, which can be dated to the Middle Ages, to the Árpádian Period based on the finds. 189
