speak God`s truth.6. Chronology. Arranging the considered materials Ionly considered the principle of time, by putting the materials inchronological order. I kept only some of the publisheddocuments and even so I didn't use all the material available.That's true that in archives and manuscripts there exist manyother confessions. I reduced the number of the documents to theones, which no doubt are attesting the fact that our ancestors,the Hungarian catholics were living in many towns and villagesin Moldavia and their progeny are still living there.For the first trial, I limited myself to the period between themiddle of the XIIth century and beginning of the XIIIthcentury. My first source of collection was "ForeignTravellers About the Rumanian Countries", from whichI used the Rumanian translation of the texts, Latin, Italian,German or other in their origin. I didn't propose to refer to thewide literature of the subject, other works published inHungarian and Rumanian. I used these only if they publishedsources about catholics from Moldavia from the certain period Iresearched. In all cases I indicated the source of the original textor the Rumanian translation. After the reference number of thedocument comes the editing date, then the name of the person,who filled in the document (if this is specified), the specificationof the document (letter, report, registration, chronicle) and - incase - the name of the person or institution at destination. Insome of the cases we reproduced the original text of thedocument, in its original language, followed by [the Rumanian]translation. We used the same procedure, when the reportcontained significant information dealing with the subject.About the footnotes: we've limited them to the absolutenecessary explanations of the text.The study is followed by an index after the present namesof localities and after their names used in the original texts. Wemention that we kept in the index only those locality names,which appear in the reproduced texts. From that results, the listdoes not contain all the Moldavian localities where theHungarian Csango people were living in the past or where theyare still living now. In the attachment we tried to build up achronological list of the Catholic Bishoprics of the mentionedperiod. Next, we included a selective bibliography containingthe main documentary publications and studies, and twe usedthe shortened list.
At the end we mention the fact that the expression "Csango(Tshango)" - frequently used for the Hungarian catholicpopulation living in Moldavia - is relatively recent. TheRumanian Modern Language Dictionary says that theexpression is derived from Hungarian, defining "the personwho belongs to the Hungarian population establishedin the Bacau region, during the XIIIth century". Thefirst appearance of the word is dated to the XVth century, butthe Hungarian catholics from Moldavia haven't used it toofrequently defining their identity At the end of the XVIIIthcentury appears the first report about the fact that this populationdefines itself as Hungarian Csangos. In that text, written inLatin, we find the following definition about the Hungariancatholics living in Moldavia: "Se se Csango magyaroknominasunt", which means, "they name themselves HungarianCsangos".Antal Horváth
