Abstract

The conference was organized within the framework of the Project “The Mongol Invasion of Hungary in Its Eurasian Context”, led by Balázs Nagy. The conference gathered approximately twenty participants from ten countries. Its proceedings will be published in 2021. This volume is expected to be a useful addition to the exis­ting literature in the field of the relations between of the Mongol Empire and Medieval Europe, especially with consideration toward the importance of the closer mutual collaboration between historians and archaeologists from various countries of Central and Southeast Europe. This was emphasized as one of the primary goals of the event.
