Bács mezőváros középkori és kora újkori térszerkezete

The topographical and morphological investigations of the medieval and early modern market towns in the area of Ottoman Hungary are a neglected topic of research in Hungary and abroad. This also applies to Bács, which was one of the most important centres of the southern part of the Danube-Tisza Interfluve Region in the late Middle Ages and in the early modern period. The internal structure of the market town could be reconstructed based on written sources from the 15th – 19th centuries, as well as from recent archaeological research. Of particular importance are 16th-century Ottoman defters and the 17th-century travel description of Evliya Çelebi, which provide valuable information about the market town’s quarters and ecclesiastical buildings. The sources clearly show that the settlement’s urban structure has preserved its medieval layout both in the Turkish period and in the modern era
