The study deals with the assessment of the archaeological source fund from the early Magyar equestrian burial site from the 10th century in Čierna nad Tisou (Trebišov district), which was saved as early as in 1951. So far this material has been known only from a short information report by J. Pástor. The unique finds of the observed set include a double-edged sword of the U-type and an amphora with cylindrical neck decorated with plastic ribs. The saved artefacts from Čierna nad Tisou belonged probably to the members of the first two generations of early Magyar population represented by military elite of a prince´s suite with the closest family, relatives and servants. The end of burying in the site may be associated with the transfer of grand princes´ centre during the second half of the 10th century to the west, probably to the area between the present Buda, Székesfehérvár and Esztergom.
