Summary/Abstract: In my paper I intend to describe and compare two settlement sections (Hajdúnánás-Mácsi-dűlőand Hajdúnánás-Fekete-halom) from the Late Avar Age that are situated in the region of Hajdúság in EasternHungary, 9 km away from each other. During the excavations preceding the construction of Motorway M3 twosettlement sections were excavated covering almost 1 hectare each dating back to the Late Avar Age. Whereas thesettlement of Fekete-halom can be dated to the 8th century, in the case of the settlement excavated in Mácsi-dűlőtwo chronological phases were separated by way of the ceramics: the first phase can be dated to the 8th century,the second phase to the late 8th century and the 9th century.
