Kristóf Hergott - Csilla Molnár A thumb ring from the Szeged Castle A thumb ring from the Szeged Castle Kristóf Hergott - Csilla Molnár Late medieval and early modern thumb rings are among the less well-researched object types in the Hungarian material. In connection with a bone thumb ring found during the excavation of the southern gate tower of the castle of Szeged, we collected from the literature all the published rings and also highlighted its parallels in the collection of the Hermitage. Our collection cannot be considered complete, and there are probably more unpublished thumb rings in the storerooms of the museums. The best parallels of the thumb ring we present here are known from the excavations of the castles of Eger and Kőszeg, and from Grave 144 of the Serbian cemetery of Győr-Gabonavásártér. With regard to its stratigraphic position, the thumb ring from Szeged should be considered a stray find, but based on historical data it cannot be earlier than the middle of the 16th century. 133
