3,000 years? That’s older than Hungary itself. Certainly a lot older than Budapest.

Yes. 3,000 years ago is pre-Pannonia which that territory was called when it was part of the Roman Empire. The Magyars did not migrate into what is now Hungary until the 9th century AD.

Does that make it ‘grandfathered’?

It’s the same all over — the find site references are all modern placenames, so we know where it is. When long-lost ancient sites are found, they are often given the name of the nearest modern site, or whatever the local site name is — so, e.g., ancient Ugarit was id’d from the archive found there, but the modern name of Ras Shamra at least used to be used at least half of the time.

This artifact originated four or five cultural layers down.
