The True and Exact Dresses and Fashion: Archaeological Clothing Remains and their Social Contexts in Sixteenth- and Seventeenth-Century Hungary

The author's main aim in this study is to look at how, and within what framework the elements of costume from Ottoman-period burials have been interpreted by previous research, and to examine those considered as being specific for certain groups in the wider context of contemporary burial sites, and in that of further archaeological material relevant in this respect. The research here has concentrated on sixteenth- and seventeenth-century cemetery sites, and specifically through analysis of a churchyard cemetery situated in Satu Mare County, in present-day Romania. The cemetery preserved the remains of the population of a former village called Bobáld, which was abandoned during the first two decades of the eighteenth century.
