Karomi vagy karlócai? Az 1699. évi békeszerződés magyar elnevezése a primer források tükrében

Absztrakt

This year marks the 325th anniversary of the signing of the Peace of Sremski Karlovci (January 26, 1699). The peace was a fateful historical event, for it ended decades of continuous civil war in the Kingdom of Hungary, concluded the wars against the Turks begun in 1683, and finally confirmed the liberation of Hungary from Turkish slavery. In the Hungarian language, this peace treaty is traditionally called the Peace of Karlóca. Based on primary historical sources (medieval charters, 16th, 17th and 18th-century geographical maps, and descriptive statistics from the 19th century), I prove in the article that the correct name is Peace of Karom.
