Abstract

In recent years, the landscape archaeological approach has yielded significant results in Hungarian medieval archaeology. Forests provide a particularly good terrain for this, as in some cases the anthropogenic elements of the inner and outer areas of deserted medieval settlements have not been affected by the damaging effects of large-scale modern agriculture, thus functioning as landscape archaeological relics. An excellent example of this is the Gyulaj Forest, located in the north-western part of Tolna County, in the microregion known as Kelet-Külső-Somogy (Eastern Outer Somogy), which has been a closed hunting area since the end of the 18th century and where a dozen deserted medieval villages can be identified (K. Németh, 2024a).
