Tartalmi kivonat:People using the cemetery at Daruhalom (93 graves) on the western bank of the Maty-er (brook) abandoned it at the end of the 7th century and probably opened a new one on the opposite, eastern bank. This new cemetery (Kettoshatar I) was used from the turn of the 7th and 8th centuries until the turn of the 8th and 9th centuries (and, in some cases, the first part of the 9th century can come into consideration). This cemetery contained 298 graves. There is another graveyard (Kettoshatar II) 60 meters away from this to the east, which, with its 43 graves, was used in the second half of the 8th century. Probably, it belonged to a different, smaller group of people. The two groups could have an inferior-superior type of relationship judging from the anthropological and archaeological results. This work is based on the comparison and examination of these cemeteries and concentrates mainly on the observable grave robbery in them. I analyse in detail the rate of robbed graves in the cemeteries, the grave robbing techniques and methods and the position of the bones in the disturbed burials. I try to reconstruct what the grave robbers may have taken based on the finds left behind. And lastly, I try to determine who and when could rob these graves. In the graveyard of Daruhalom 17 out of 93 graves were robbed. In Kettoshatar I site the rate is similar, 58 out of the total 298 graves were robbed. In percentages, this means 18.3% in the former and 19.4% in the latter case. In contrast, in Kettoshatar II all of the 43 graves were robbed. This rate, together with the methodical robbery and fast back-filling of the graves suggest that the community using this cemetery was wealthier than the people using the other two cemeteries in its immediate vicinity and also than most communities in the middle region of the Great Hungarian Plain at the time. It is also outstanding that the rate of Mongoloid people in Kettoshatar II is the highest amongst all the cemeteries of the Carpathian Basin.
