Abstracts

EN

The article deals with selected artefacts from the hillfort of Bojná I-Valy and its nearby surroundings from the high Middle Ages – early post-medieval period which have been brought by years of systematic archaeological investigation of the site and its hinterland. It is an assemblage of finds associated with rider’s equipment and horse harness (spurs, buckles, and bits), militaria (dussack, arrowheads). The hillfort is dated to the Early Middle Ages and after its demise. It did not renew its previous status. Nevertheless, the small assemblage of presented finds means a certain interest in the site and this area in the later period. The artefacts suggest a certain connection with the settlement in its nearby surroundings. They can also point to use of (today almost extinct) routes crossing the Považský Inovec mountain range and connecting the regions of Ponitrie and Považie.
