KARCAG<br />
Karcag is the capital of the Nagykunság. Its history goes back to the 8th century, when the Cumans from the Kipchak branch of the Asian<br />
Turkic peoples settled here. They became Hungarian, but they have preserved certain elements of their ancient language and culture to<br />
the present day. The town has a significant art life and it is famous for its pottery. Kossuth prize winner Sándor Kántor lived and worked<br />
here, Munkácsy prize winning sculptor Sándor Györfi works in the town, whose outdoor statutes set up in many public squares are to<br />
the praise of his handiwork.<br />
