Nagyrév is a village in Jasz-Nagykun-Szolnok in central Hungary.
Between 1914 and 1929, a large group of female villagers calling themselves "The Angel Makers of Nagyrév" systematically poisoned to death an estimated 300 people in Nagyrev.
The Nagyrev culture was a bronze-age culture that existed in what is now modern day Hungary. It existed alongside the Vatya and Hatvan cultures and was eventually superseded by the latter. The main style of pottery was a one or two handed cup with a tall funnel neck that is made in a black burnished ware. Coordinates: 46°56′31″N 20°08′57″E / 46.94181°N 20.14925°E
