Presented study focuses on quartz crystal finds in archaeological contexts, from the late prehistory through ancient history to the medieval period. Presence of artefacts made of crystal, as well as pieces of raw semi-precious gemstone variations of quartz on different types of archaeological sites and in features dated to the wide time range are analysed. Main impulse for writing this paper was the discovery of a unique crystal icosahedron in the horseman grave 208/87 at the graveyard from the period of Avar Khaganate in cadaster of municipality Čataj, location Zemanské-Gejzove, district of Senec. This artefact, together with similar finds dated to earlier or later time periods, are viewed in wide chronological and geographical context. The authors search for similarities and differences between them, and try to explain them. Selected finds of quartz crystal and beads made from this material from the territory of Slovakia, dated from the prehistory, but mostly to early historical period and Middle Ages, were analyzed using the Raman spectroscopy method.
