Summary/Abstract: The paper presents new discoveries of the early Slavs in the Eastern Carpathians at the Miercurea Ciuc – Fodor-kert, Şumuleu site (Harghita County). The dwellings belonged to various types but all had ovens built of stones. It is remarkable the high proportion of clay pans among the exclusively handmade pottery. The dwellings were dated based on analogies but above all by 14C analysis. Based on these the settlement could have been founded already in the middle of the 5th century and it was abandoned latest by the middle of the 7th century.
