English summary: The treasure of Sannicolau Mare (Hungarian: Nagyszentmiklos), found in Hungary in 1799, is one of the outstanding cultural ensembles of the European early Middle Ages. It consists of 23 vessels of almost pure gold. What makes the treasure so valuable, however, is not the material but its high quality of workmanship and the fact that it is a unique source for exploring cultural links between the Mediterranean world and Eurasian nomadic societies.
