A muhi csatával kapcsolatos lokalizációs kérdések
In my study, I will examine the major issues related to locating the battle of Muhi, i.e. the location of the Hungarian camp and the bridge on the river Sajó. An important factor for determining the location of the camp was that Subutai marched from the bridge to the lower course of the Sajó to get to the side of the camp. This suggests that the camp was located south of the river crossing. I will try to determine the minimum size of the camp based on the number of troops and the reason why the camp became congested. Another question concerning the camp is the identification of the hill from which Batu observed the Hungarian camp. In my opinion, considering the topography of the area, the most suitable hill for this was Testhalom on the bank of the Kerengő. Finally, I propose a method in battlefield archaeology to find battlerelated finds by geophysical measurements using a magnetometer.
