Summary/Abstract: The paper proposes a firm chronology of the mission of bishop Hierotheos to the Hungarians (in 948), and provides more proofs for the location of its area between the Mureş, Criş and Tisza rivers. The mission is seen in the context of the international relations of Byzantium at the middle of the 10th century, and analysed in comparison with the archaeological and numismatic data.
