Year after year, a lot of objects get into museums with the help of metal detectorists, a greater part of which are yet unkown regarding their function. In this paper, the author would like to present a bronze cast buckle divided into three parts which was found on the territory of the destroyed Medieval Szentetornya village, located 5 km north of the regional centre, the town of Orosháza. As it is presented below, the function and the date of this artefact is yet to be determined.
