Summary/Abstract: In my study, I publish the short catalog of archaeologically investigated Late Avar Age sites ofSzabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County. It includes the following data: the site’s name, type (settlement or cemetery,sometimes both), dating, year of excavation, names of excavating archaeologists, dimensions of investigatedterritory and ‒ if possible ‒ the quantitative introduction of discovered features, references, registry number andfurther notices considered to be important from the point of view of find material and finding circumstances.From the territory of the county, I have collected a total of 64 Late Avar Age sites that were at least partiallyinvestigated. This is a quantitative jump comparing to previous compendia, due to the preventive excavationspreceding large investment projects in the last decades. In concrete numbers, this means 17 cemeteries and 37settlements. In ten cases, I registered the common appearance of cemeteries and settlements at the same site.
