Remembering Our Danube Swabian Ancestors
 

Literacy in the Kingdom of Hungary, 1890
Swabian Turkey & Hungarian Highlands areas that remained in Hungary got the higher marks.

"Surveying knowledge was the very first technical science developed by humanity. This knowledge was necessary, for example, because of taxation, the designation of estates, the designation of hunting areas, and later there was a need to get to know our Earth as much as possible.

The history of cartography is very exciting. Surveying monuments of the Árpádian period, cartography in the court of King Matthias, Deák Lázár et al., Cartography of the Turkish age, Sámuel Mikoviny, the Reformation, and many other stages of cartography can be read in the history of cartography development."
