Archaeological discoveries confirmed the existence of economic and cultural contacts between Bratislava and the regions of Apennine Peninsula. Bratislava was situated at the crossroad of big international trade routes. It was an economic centre of the region; after the Battle of Mohacs the political importance of the town increased too. The findings of this paper have been considerably influenced by the state of research of historic plots, however, it is clear that the most extensive collections of imports concentrated on the plots located along major trade routes in the town (Ventúrska Street, Michalská Street, Water Tower or the castle).

The primary function of fortresses and in a wider context various kinds of fortifications, too, are to control and protect important sites/areas, but they are also very potent symbols of political and economic power. As a special type of military architecture, fortresses were usually erected in sensitive border regions to stop waves of invaders. From the period of the Middle Kingdom at least, many and varied sources testify to the fact that the area of the Nile Delta and particularly the eastern Delta/Sinai was protected by a chain of fortresses to prevent enemy attacks The importance of the ‘Walls of the Ruler’ within the Middle Kingdom defence system is undisputed; its approximate location at the entrance of Wadi Tumilat is known. The military picture of Egypt’s eastern frontier would not be complete without mentioning another huge military installation which was built during the New Kingdom in order to protect Egypt’s eastern border: the so-called ‘Ways of Horus’. To these military activities of Seti I can also be added the fortress at Tell el-Retaba, built at the beginning of the Ramesside era in the military sensitive region of Wadi Tumilat. The evident expenditure on the construction and its subsequent reconstruction indicates that its location was considered highly strategic and economically important. The promising results of the current archaeological excavations of the Polish-Slovak missions at this site may help us to uncover and consequently better not only understand the building history of one of the fortress-towns on the border of Egypt but also shed more light on the nature and various facets of the mutual relations between Egypt and his north-eastern neighbours.

The aim of the paper is to highlight some aspects of two artistic objects which are well known in the Slovak art-historiography and also to open the topic for further discussion. The first object is one of the oldest works of Slovak art and it belongs to a set of gilded bronze plaques from the Old-Slavonic fort of Bojná near Nitra, which dates back to the beginning of the 9th century. The second object discussed here belongs to another set of plaques which make up what is to this day known as the Monomachos Crown, dating from the 10th to the 12th century, and which were found in Ivanka near Nitra.
