Betyár

The betyárs , were the highwaymen of the 19th century Kingdom of Hungary. The "betyár" word is the Hungarian version of "Social Bandit". (The word itself is of Ottoman Turkish origin, meaning 'bachelor' or 'unmarried man'.)

Several betyárs have become legendary figures who in the public mind fought for social justice. The most famous Hungarian betyárs were Sándor Rózsa from the plain, Jóska Sobri, Jóska Savanyú from Bakony and Márton Vidróczky from Mátra.
