Summary/Abstract: The bullae of papal charters are typically preserved in archives and only rarely are they brought to light as archaeological finds. Presented here is the papal lead bulla discovered in the medieval village of Bánhegyes (modern Magyarbánhegyes, County Békés) in November 2019 during a metal detecting survey, alongside a discussion of its historical background and its currently known parallels from Hungary and other regions.
