		We then made a stop at another Bulgar town, where the others did some detecting, I had packed my machine away for safe transit and did not feel inclined to unpack it particularly as we had not had anything to eat and there seemed little likely hood of any food either.
		We where supposed to go to the old Russian town of Old Mayna on the next day (Tuesday) but the ferryman did not turn up so it was another day of no detecting and lying around the camp.

	THE ANTIQUITIES OF POVOLZH’YE AND OTHER REGIONS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		It is commonly known that copper coins, as a rule, did not play the principal role in the economic and monetary relations of the states, meeting for the most part the requirements of local market.
		Comparing the coin finds from Bolgar and the both Sarays shows that more than half of the copper coin finds in Bolgar belong to the production of Saray and New Saray mints, whereas the finds of Bulghar coins in Lower Povolzh’ye are rather sporadic.
		Hence it becomes reasonable that the town bearing this name is not 145 years old, as it follows from its official chronology, but its history can be dated back to at least 715 years, as testified by the new exactly dated numismatic sources, the most ancient for the moment and well worthy of confidence.

		Budapest's recorded history begins with the Roman town of Aquincum, founded around 89 AD on the site of an earlier Celtic settlement near what was to become Óbuda, and from 106 until the end of the 4th century the capital of the province of lower Pannonia.
		The word Pest (or Peshta) is thought to originate from the Bolgar language, (thought to be a Turkic language, not related to modern Bulgarian, which is a Slavic language) because at the time of the reign of the Bulgarian Khan Krum (approximately 796-814), the town was under Bulgar dominion.
		It was Pest, a bustling commercial town, which enjoyed the faster growth rate in the 18th and 19th century and contributed the overwhelming majority of the cities' combined growth in the 19th.
