Students in the Department of Ethnography and Cultural Anthropology of Szeged University went to Transylvania to do field collection work in the spring of 2019. Their goal was to collect material in the region known as Orbiaszék in the far southeastern corner of the Carpathian Basin – in today’s Covasna County, Romania, near the town of Kézdivásárhely/Târgu Secuiesc. They stayed in the village of Csomakörös/Chiuruș, and did collection work in two villages: Gelencse and Haraly/Harale [tiny villages with a Hungarian majority of inhabitiants] and visited several other communities in this rural area where "the roads are not paved and modernization has hardly arrived".
