As so much of what is now Hungary was part of the Roman empire expansion, we find archaeology sites such as a Roman temple of Isis. But what's interesting about Isis is that she started out as an EGYPTIAN GODDESS, and eventually the Romans believed in her too. The temple is from the 2nd century AD.
After initial excavation in the 1950's one temple was significantly reconstructed. There is also a museum.
ISEUM DAVARIAMUSEUM HUNGARY Some people think this is the finest museum in Hungary.
After four years of excavation, a large complex of buildings was discovered. In more recent history there is a museum of historical religion. The Savaria Carnival is an event held usually in the summer in which tourists can get a feeling for what life must have been at the time when Roman's were living in the area and worshiping Isis.
If you go to this website on Google, you'll be invited to translate it into English. You'll find that there is a database featuring magazines of interest such as the Vasi Review - cultural studies.
