The contribution provides primary assessment of two field activities of the Department of Archaeology of Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, which were conducted in 2008 as a part of rescue excavation in the built-up area of Horné Lefantovce. The foundations of a commercial building from the Late Modern Period (18th-19th centuries) were examined. The assessment includes characterization of a set of signed bricks. The article contains also evaluation of the ceramic finds from repeated surveys in the administrative area of Kostoľany pod Tribečom. Medieval and modern finds have been detected in three previously unknown positions, which correspond with our knowledge of the settlement of this region.
