Conquest Era Magyar
The Archealogical Museum of Bologna http://www.comune.bologna.it/bologna/Musei/ In Italian. Babelfish will happily tranlate it for you. This is the website that first introduced me to Magyars. I loved the fact that they were living in Europe with yurts. It's all about the yurt. Didn't I tell you?
Honfoglalás kori viseletek
http://members.chello.hu/divat/tortelem/honfog.htm In Hungarian. This appears to be a fashion student's website with her research on early hungarian clothing. Note that the sepia-toned drawings are by famed Hungarian archeologist László Gyula.
