The article publishes the first coin find from the northern Slovak region of Turiec, with the final coinage from the Early Migration Period. These are mostly the heavily worn 4th century copper coins. The hoard of this type is characteristic mainly for the northern Central Danube region. Based on the few compiled and analyzed settlement finds from the highlands, it was assumed that this area was rather under the influence of the late Suebian settlement of southwestern and western Slovakia and proves few connections with the neighboring area of the North Carpathian Group. It also supports the distribution of the 4th–5th century sites in the south and their absence in the north of the region.

The North Carpathian group is an archaeological culture of the central European Late Roman and Early Migration period (4th and the 5th century AD) for which high altitude settlement at difficult to access mountain locations is typical. The choice of such a location has been linked to social and political instability and the proximity of iron ore sources. Here we present archaeological material from two recently discovered and excavated sites of this culture group located in characteristic locations Žiar, southern slope of Solisko, which lies in the Liptov region and Dolný Kubín-Veľký Bysterec, Podtarnikovo in the Orava region. Radiocarbon dates on short-lived plant remains samples place both settlements to the period of the second half of the 4th to the first third of the 5th century AD. The results of our analysis of recovered material culture, topography and raw materials distribution correlated with other available data for the period in these two regions confirm 1. The availability of iron ore in the vicinity (max. 5 km) of almost every known site of the North Carpathian group, 2. Location of settlements almost exclusively at a greater distance from the main watercourses, but always in visual contact with strategic points (fords, confluences, communications). The evidence of both eco-facts and artefacts jointly demonstrate local production of plant crops and indicate permanent settlements and subsistence farming strategy. Therefore we interpret the high altitude sites of the North Carpathian group firstly as regular settlements, not refuge places which were considered by multiple authors.
