Roman gaming paraphernalia from the Rómer Flóris Museum in Győr, Hungary
Hungarian museums are rich in artefacts connected to Roman gaming and play, and the systematic collection and publication of these finds adds to the growing body of knowledge about the ludic culture in classical antiquity. The territory of Roman Pannonia along the Danube limes still represents a research gap in the study of Roman gaming paraphernalia. The paper discusses pieces of Roman gaming equipment from the collection of the Rómer Flóris Mus…
Pieces of gaming equipment from Roman Pannonia: The Collection of the Kuny Domokos Museum in Tata (Hungary)
Archaeological finds connected to gaming and play are seldom published in detail from Roman Pannonia, although these are frequently found during excavations. Therefore, the area of Pannonia along the Danube limes represents a blank spot in the research of the ludic culture of the Roman Empire. The paper presents a comprehensive study of the pieces of Roman gaming equipment in the collection of the Kuny Domokos Museum in Tata (Hungary) and discuss…
Roman antefixes from Brigetio in the collections of the Kuny Domokos Museum in Tata and the Klapka György Museum in Komárom
Antefixes from Roman Pannonia have not been in the focus of Hungarian research, the artefacts in the collections of Hungarian museums are mostly unpublished, and in consequence, unknown. This paper discusses fifteen antefixes and two intact antefix moulds discovered in the collection of the Kuny Domokos Museum in Tata, as well as an antefix in the Klapka György Museum in Komárom, all found in Roman Brigetio (present-day Komárom/Szőny, Hungary). T…
Roman stamped bricks from the Tussla-collection in the Hungarian National Museum
The so-called Tussla-collection of the Hungarian National Museum is a substantial collection of Roman artefacts collected by Mr. and Mrs. Tivadar Tussla during the early 1880s in the northern half of the legionary fortress in Brigetio. The original material consisted of about 2.500 objects that were partly donated to the Museum during the 1880s or formed the private collection of Mrs. Tussla and entered the Museum after her death in 1961. Both th…
New evidence for wood and reed ceilings from Roman Pannonia
Relatively little is known about Roman age wooden ceilings especially in the provinces, since only few have survived. Most of our evidence comes from the Vesuvian cities in Southern Italy, along with the information provided by the literary sources (e.g. Vitruvius, Cetius Faventinus, Palladius), which also concern building practices in Italy. Wooden ceilings, however, were widespread, and the most frequently used types: plank ceilings, coffered c…

The architectural parallels of the mausoleum of Iovia (Pannonia) revisited – Experimenting with the hexagon in late antique architecture
The curious shape of the so-called early Christian mausoleum of Iovia, Pannonia has attracted much attention since its discovery in the 1980s. The main part of the building, a hexagon flanked by alternating semi-circular and rectangular rooms was complemented by a bi-apsidal vestibule and a rectangular peristyle courtyard. The hexagon was a relatively rarely used form in late antique architecture compared to the octagon, however, hexagons can sti…
Roman stamped bricks from Brigetio from the 1927–1929 excavations of István Paulovics
Modern topographical research in and around the legionary fortress of Brigetio (Komárom/Szőny, Hungary) started in the 1920s motivated by the desire to stop the centuries-long archaeological lootings at the site and to prevent further loss of archaeological data caused by the uncontrolled removal and selling of artefacts. The excavations led by István Paulovics between 1927 and 1929 touched upon the northern surrounding wall of the castra , a sho…
Unpublished antefixes and a mould fragment from Brigetio in the collection of the Hungarian National Museum
There are six antefixes and an antefix mould from Roman Brigetio (Komárom-Szőny, Hungary) in the collection of the Hungarian National Museum, which are the first antefixes to be published from Brigetio. All made in the form of tragic masks with desperate expressions, they can be classified into two types based on their appearance. The only Type 1 antefix is characterized by straight, stylized hair and high onkos , with close parallels in Aquincum…
Excavation at Brigetio, Komárom/Szőny-Vásártér in 2016: The find material
Brigetio, along the Danube limes, was one of the four legionary bases of Pannonia and, thus, one of the most important settlements of the province. The last excavation season so far, conducted by the Eötvös Loránd University and the Klapka György Museum of Komárom, was in 2016. The finds from previous years have been published year by year from 2010. This paper presents a catalogue and evaluation of the finds of the last, 2016, excavation campaig…
Twenty-five Years of Excavations in Brigetio at the Site Komárom/Szőny-Vásártér
Brigetio, along the Danube limes, was one of the four legionary bases of Pannonia and, thus, one of the most important settlements of the province. The excavations conducted by the Eötvös Loránd University and the Klapka György Museum of Komárom lasted 25 years (1992–2016) and yielded unparalleled information about the spatial structure and the temporal setting of the Roman municipium. Numerous high-standard domestic buildings with hypocaust heat…
The Legionary Tilery of Brigetio and the Late Roman Watchtower at Kurucdomb: The 1934–1935 Excavation of István Paulovics at Komárom/Szőny-Kurucdomb with a Catalogue of the Brick Stamps
Modern excavations have been going on with increasing intensity for three decades in the Roman settlement complex of Brigetio (Komárom/Szőny, Hungary). Through these investigations, our knowledge about the topography and the building phases of the legionary fortress and the civil town has multiplied. However, new information can also be acquired by revisiting unpublished or poorly published past excavations. The Komárom/Szőny-Kurucdomb (Hungary) …

Brick and tile kilns in Roman Pannonia – A state of research
Dozens of Roman tile kilns have come to light in Pannonia during the last one hundred years. This paper summarizes the published tile manufacturing workshops of Pannonia in present-day Hungary, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. In the first part it gives a short general overview of the structure of a workshop, discusses the problems of defining tile kilns, describes the parts of the kilns themselves and outlines the systems of classificatio…

Roman building techniques observed in the municipium of Brigetio
The research excavations in Brigetio at Komárom/Szőny–Vásártér between 1992–2014 unearthed a part of the civil town (municipium) with domestic buildings and workshops with several construction phases from the end of the 1st century AD to the second half of the 3 rd century AD. Best preserved are the ruins from the Severan era which offer us an insight into the building techniques of the age: adobe walls with stone foundations, mortar floors, hypo…
