Sažetak
Crkveno brdo site is situated in the vicinity of the town of Szenta in Vojvodina. During archaeological excavations, a settlement with an adjacent necropolis and a church were discovered. During the excavation of the settlement, several dozens of structures were documented, among them five houses, nine kilns, forty-one pits, thirteen trenches, and a water well of irregular shape. The settlement was mainly in use from the 11th to the 13th century, while several discovered small finds suggest the usage also
during the 14th and 15th centuries. The church was erected on the already existing necropolis, and its founding can be tied to the conversion of Magyars to Christian faith in the 11th century. Church had several building phases, during which it was enlarged and depicted in fresco technique. Such treatment of this sacral building suggests that it had great importance
for the local population who insisted on the continuity of this cultic space. The necropolis around the church was used from the 10th/11th century until the 15th/16th century. The longevity of life on this site suggests it was an important local central place in this part of the Magyar medieval state.
