The article is a report on the procedure and results of the archaeological prospection in the cadastral territory of the village Jarok, the district of Nitra. During the research seasons of 2010 – 2012, past settlement in the village was systematically mapped and analysed, in order to clarify and complement its oldest as well as younger history. As a part of the preparation for the prospection, all currently registered sites were mapped, and known data on the cadastre settlement were evaluated. Collection activities, with positive results, were carried out in six sites, in one case the collection was combined with geophysical prospection of a selected quadrant of the settled area. At the same time, aerial images covering the village area were analysed as well, and into account were taken also the vegetation and soil symptoms identified during the remote screening through GoogleEarth service. During the three seasons we managed to collect 4100 pieces of pottery fragments, small features and stone flakes, which increased our knowledge on an almost continual settlement of the Jarok land area since prehistoric times (the Neolithic, Eneolithic, Bronze Age, Hallstatt Period), through proto-historical (La Tene Period, Roman Period) and medieval periods (8th – 9th century, 12th – 13th century, 14th century), up to the Post-medieval Period. The results obtained within the archaeological prospection of Jarok contributed to a higher and more complex understanding of the picture of the distant history not only of the village and its close vicinity, but of a wider area of the middle Danube River Basin.
