A trianoni hármashatárok kijelölése

Abstract

A "triple" or "tergeminate" frontier is the meeting point of the frontiers of three neighbouring countries. The boundary stone which marks it, named "triplex confinum", is generally a monumental, obelisk-like work of art. Along the frontiers of Hungary, estab-lished by the Trianon Peace Treaty and traced out on the terrain, there were four such triplex confinia. Their establishing and indication was done as a result of long negotiations and without the knowledge of the Hungarian party sometimes. The study treats the political efforts in this concern and explains how the location of the tergeminate frontier marks have been positioned, together with the presentation of the different types of the monuments. It is worth mentioning that no one of the original four Trianon tergeminate frontier marks are standing on their primary places today.
