The theme of the study is the relations and communication between Hungarian and Ottoman representatives in the Ottoman-Hungarian border region in the second half of the 16th century. The importance of these interactions is presented through the example of Ottoman letters addressed to the captain of Komárno and Nové Zámky, Mikuláš Pálffy. A total of 46 documents dating from 1588 till 1594 recount the everyday life in the border area. This communication aimed to resolve various matters, which were in the competences of afore mentioned Hungarian commander and Ottoman dignitaries. The common themes included prisoners and their ransom, litigations, providing protection and transportation across the border, trade and solving private matters.
