Abstract
As a result of several years of fieldwork and a community archaeology programme, traces of an extensive iron processing centre between Nagykovácsi and Solymár were uncovered. The area is mostly forested, and many extraction and production areas are still visible on the surface. The site was surveyed by teams of the Ferenczy Museum Centre (FMC) and the Közösségi Régészeti Egyesület (KRE) [Community Archaeology Association]. It contributes greatly to our knowledge of the specific profession-related villages of royal service people as the name of the related settlement, referring to a place of ferrous metallurgy, is first mentioned in a late Árpád Age document.
