Salamon – (1) According to the chronicle, written in the Manx Gaelic language on the Isle of Man (1066-1266), Solomon was the original name of King István I (St Stephen, 997-1038) of Hungary. The chronicle, as published with commentary by George Broderick of Edinburgh in 1973, includes accounts of the lives of both King István and his wife, Gizella, who were both honored as saints in the Christian Church. It suggests a connection with the British Royal family through István’s relative, Agatha.

Salgótarján, Massacre of - Ironically, of all the massacres perpetrated by the Communists during the 1956 Revolution, probably the worst occurred on 8 December 1956 in Salgótarján, an old leftist center of the workers’ movement. At the outbreak of the Revolution on 23 October 1956, the Communist leadership of the county and the higher ranking AVH (Államvédelmi Hatóság – State Security Police) officers fled with their families to Besztercebánya (now Banská Bystrica, Slovakia) in neighboring Czechoslovakia. The lower ranking AVH personnel went into hiding near the border, crossing it regularly, because the First Secretary of the Communist Party in Besztercebánya was supplying them with provisions and weaponry. On 5 November, the newly armed AVH unit, which was hiding out in Karancslapujtó near the border, attacked the County National Committee located in the Salgótarján County Hall and disarmed the National Guard unit which defended it. The next day, however, the freedom fighters, under the leadership of Rudolf Haday and Lajos (Louis) Hargitay, the National Guard commanders, retook the County Hall and scattered the AVH or Pufajkás unit in Karancslapujtó as well. (The Pufajkás unit was comprised of the remnants of the various security organs of the Communist state, which lacking official uniforms or status as yet, were dressed in the Russian style winter jackets padded with cotton). To regain their position, the Communist leaders of Salgótarján called for Soviet help and a Red Army detachment, under the command of Colonel Seludin, arrived on November 14 to take control of Salgótarján. The same day there was an armed conflict on the Czechoslovak border between the National Guard and the AVH personnel, who were receiving help from across the border. Under the protection of the armed Soviets, on 17 November, the Salgótarján Communists set up a new executive committee and the commissioners of the Interior Ministry removed those officers from the security units who sympathized with the freedom fighters. The workers of the city united behind the newly formed independent County Workers’ Council. The County Workers’ Council announced a 48-hour warning strike for December 3-4, while Pufajkás units were harassing the population in the surrounding villages. On December 6, the AVH forcibly dispersed a meeting of the Workers’ Council, and the next day they arrested two of its members. On 8 December, a demonstration was organized to demand the release of those arrested. The unarmed demonstrators, numbering about 2000, included workers, women and children. They were lured to the square in front of the county police headquarters, where they were trapped between the Soviet troops and the AVH units. The massacre began at 11 o’clock and the firing lasted for several minutes. The fleeing unarmed people were shot from behind, even children, as their wounds later revealed. There is no agreement on the exact number of dead. The clerk of vital statistics put it to 131. The estimated number of the wounded came to 150. Though there were no injuries among the Hungarian security troops or the Soviet soldiers, Communist propaganda later claimed that they were attacked, and only fired in self-defense. Following the massacre, the Workers’ Council was dissolved and the main participants and their leaders were arrested. The cruelly tortured and bullet-ridden bodies of the National Guard commanders, Rudolf Haday and Lajos Hargitay, were found in the Ipoly River on 10 December. – B: 1020, T: 7665.→State Security Police; Freedom Fight of 1956.

Samo, Principality of – In 626 A.D., under the leadership of Samo, an adventurer-trader of Frank origin, the Vends, residing on the western side of Pannonia (now Transdanubia or Dunántúl, Western Hungary), broke away from the Avars and defeated the army sent against them by Dagobert I, the Frank king. The uprising of the Vends surprised the Avars, who were at that time involved in an attack on Byzantium. While the Vends were successful in breaking away from Avar rule, they could not challenge their supremacy in the East, and were forced to withdraw behind the Vienna Basin. Due to the Vend uprising, the Avars gave up the siege of Byzantium in 627, and could only occupy Samo’s territory west of the Vienna Basin after his death. The independence of the Vends ended with the death of Samo around 658. – B: 1230, 1031, T: 7665.→Avars. “Sandaled” Gentry – It was the most destitute stratum of the lesser nobility in the time of late feudalism in Hungary.
