During the Middle Age several law systems existed in Kingdom of Hungary. The center of one of these systems was Krupina. The law from Krupina evolved from the legal customs of the Saxons. Saxon ethnic group in the city was dominated by the judiciary and law. This dominance enabled the original customary law to develop into the city's law system. This law system was similar to the Magdeburg law and was relatively extended in the territory of medieval Slovakia. In the paper we will deal with the extension, forms and characteristics of this law system.
Krupina law in the Middle Ages was a derivative of Saxon-Magdeburg law. However, there is no more comprehensive answer to the question of what initial influences influenced the creation of the legal system of Krupina. Therefore, the aim of this work is to provide a more comprehensive answer to questions about the origins of Krupina law. In the first part we deal with the legal situation before the arrival of the guests. In the second, we deal with the situation from the arrival of the guests to the granting of the first privileges. In the last third part we analyze and interpret the privileges of 1244. The thesis brings a more comprehensive view of the initial formation of Krupina law.
After the first muster and thus the initial payment, wages of the recruited were handed out rather erratically, and each time they were mustered again by appointed muster officials. Konrad Wallen von Aurach’s report on Francis Bornemissza’s accusations concerning the Krupina payment issues provide a good picture on both the musters and the payment process, also on the possible or actual methods of mistreatment and fraud. Documents of this type are, unfortunately, quite rare, but through them we can improve our view on 16th century military organization and the everyday life of the recruited.
