Etymology

There are several explanations of the origin of the name of Zamárdi.

  • According to one theory, the village was called before the Mongol invasion Kis Szent Mártir which later changed to Zamárdi. However, there is no proof for that.
  • The older part of the village is on a hill, so the residents brought water on the back of donkeys. Therefore, the village was called Szamárd after szamár (English: donkey) and -d suffix.
  • The most accepted theory states that the name derives from a person named Zamar or Somar. He could have been the first owner of the village.[3]

History

Before the arrival of the Hungarians at the turn of the 9th and 10th centuries, the area was populated by Avars. In 1972, a large Avaric cemetery was discovered in the village.[4]
