The Orava region, located in the northernmost part of Slovakia is significantly differs in climate conditions from other regions. Cold climate also heavily influences living conditions of local people. Back in the day it was typical for people living in this cold, mountainous, barren area to be humble and live modest way of life on the brink of misery and famine. The aim of the study is to present information about the local specifics of the way of life, language and traditional folk culture of the inhabitants of the Orava County, in Matej Bel’s work - Notitia Hungariae Novae historico-geographica („Historical and Geographical Knowledge of New Hungary“).
