Summary/Abstract: In his paper the author analyses the change of the Pannon and Pannonian tribes in the province of Pannonia during the early Principate and the northern border of the Pannonian tribes that was, according to the generally accepted view, the Drava river. Based on the written and epigraphic sources (including the new Roman finds from county of Somogy) and the LTD finds, the author concludes that the ethnic border was north of the river in county Somogy as no late Celtic settlements and cemeteries can be pointed out south of Kaposvár.
