The Archbishop of Esztergom (lat. Strigonium), Dionisius of Szecs, is considered a controversial figure in historical literature. In a short time, he crowned two Hungarian kings: 14 May 1440 as a faithful servant of Queen Elizabeth her three-month-old son, Ladislav the Posthumous, and 17 July 1440, apparently under pressure, also his enemy Vladislaus I. Despite the indisputable fact of the double coronation, the historians are now more cautious regarding the role of the Archbishop. As an excellent speaker and diplomat, he favored negotiations over violence and was instrumental in settling several seemingly insoluble conflicts. He also played an important role in the election of Mathias Corvinus as King of Hungary, which he eventually crowned (as the third ruler in his life). His merits in the church are also important: despite the difficult period he began to build the cathedral and archbishop's palace in Esztergom, convened several church synods, supported monasteries and increased the importance of the Archbishop of Esztergom by achieving the title Primate of Hungarian churche.

The study deals with the topic of origin and form of the seals used in the administrative practice of the Predialist Seats of the Esztergom Archbishop. Since the Middle Ages, Predialists were a special group of the military nobility in the service of important church institutions and high church dignitaries. Its members served their masters mainly as soldiers (nobiles exercituantes). As a reward for this service, they received various privileges, land in particular. Property granted this way was identified by the Latin word of praedium. Therefore, the noblemen living there were called the Predialists (praedialistae). The military administrative organisation of the Predialists was formed by the so called seats (sedes). Seals were used to verify the documents produced by their administration. Originally, four Predialist seats belonged to the archbishop of Esztergom. All of them were located in the territory of the today’s Slovakia, in particular around Vráble, Jur nad Hronom, Arcibiskupský Lél and Vojka nad Dunajom. Later on, the Seats of Vráble and Jur nad Hronom were merged into a single unit.

The study is concerned with the conspiracy against King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary in 1471, probably the most serious expression of opposition from the Hungarian nobility against his rule. It is directed towards the course of the rebellion, which was closely connected with a Polish invasion of the Kingdom of Hungary. The core of the paper comprises a description and analysis of the rebellion of part of the Hungarian clergy and nobility led by John Vitéz Archbishop of Esztergom. The paper deals with the causes of the opposition and the motivation of the leading actors, which led to their open rebellion against their monarch, and participation in the subsequent Jagiellonian intervention. It is also concerned with the question of support for the conspiracy in the framework of the nobility and clergy of Hungary, as well as the fate of the representatives of the Hungarian opposition.
