Summary/Abstract: In the spring of 2011, people using metal detectors discovered a new site at Bugyi village, Pest county. The Directorate of the Museums of Pest County conducted authenticating and rescue excavations on the territory and they found a few graves of a Conquest Period cemetery. One of the burials proved to be especially important: a gilded silver sabretache plate, a mounted belt of a unique structure and the remains of a rare bow type lay in the grave of a high-ranked man. With regard to the significance of the grave, we describe the finds in a preliminary publication. The planned excavation of the site and the scientific analysis of the finds have been started.
