This paper explores the issue of spatial research at Palaeolithic sites, discussing spatial analyses and their significance both at individual sites and at a regional scale. Interpretations of immovable and movable objects, the role of refitting analyses, and at a regional scale the importance of raw materials analyses are all addressed.

This paper presents analysis of the chipped stone industry from the upland settlement in Spišské Podhradie-Dreveník. The site has been devastated by the exploitation of travertine. The survey yielded 33 artefacts which can be dated to the beginning of the Upper Palaeolithic (Szeletian, Aurignacian), the Late Palaeolithic or the Mesolithic. Two bifacial retouched points and a combined end scraper/burin tool made of radiolarite can be dated to the Szeletian. As for raw materials, radiolarite prevails over patinated silicite and chocolate flint.

The study deals with the topography of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic sites in Slovakia. In recent years, several projects were used to verify positions of the sites in the terrain and, at the same time, to survey them through GPS. A georeferenced base of sites (especially from the Považie and Ponitrie) was created. The initial input data regarding the numbers, approximate positions, dating of sites, numbers of finds from the sites, and so on, were taken from available literature as well as from the IA SAS´s documentation of texts and images. The positions of several sites were subsequently specified according to the maps from the publications and documentation of the IA SAS. This resulted into detailed topographical, geomorphological and technologically typological documentation of several areas of Slovakia. A similar method was used to add to the database the information from all over Slovakia which has not been verified through surface exploration yet. By the end of 2014, the database contained 960 sites, of which 126 have so far been measured in the terrain. Additional 146 sites have been preliminary identified according to the maps. The remaining 688 sites have not been verified yet. For the purposes of further processing, the territory has been divided into 11 regions according to the main Slovak watercourses which make up partial river basins of the Danube, the Tisa and the Vistula. A general problem facing the creation of topography is a large number of sites with imprecise determination of the position which may fluctuate from several metres up to several hundred metres. The richest and best processed regions in Slovakia are some micro regions in the watersheds of the rivers Váh, Nitra, Hornád, Bodrog and Poprad. At present, the most detailed verifications include the watersheds of the rivers Váh and Nitra. A summarising mapping of the sites also gives us a view of the concentration of scholars’ interest in some areas and, at the same time, of the areas from which we do not have any information on their settlement in the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic. This can serve as an aid for further orientation of research in Slovakia.

ABoth already known and newly found Palaeolithic sites in the Trencin microregion were appreciated. Stratigraphy has showed that eroded slopes were covered with the youngest loess OSL-dated to 16 700 ± 600 BP, which filled also ice wedges and fissures of the older loess layer or the Bt horizon of interglacial earth (eem) underneath. The oldest settlement belongs to the Middle Palaeolithic Micoquian (Trencianska Turna and Zamarovce) and Mousterian (Mnichova Lehota-Straze and Mnichova Lehota-Biele hliny). Leaf point cultures of the terminal Middle and incipient Late Palaeolithic occurred at the sites of Trencianska Turna I and II, Trencianska Turna-Hamre and Trencianske Stankovce I. Chronology of the Moravany-Dlha leaf points from the site of Novy Kolacin has been still questionable. The Aurignacian has been probably proved at the sites of Trencin IV and Ivanovce-Skala. In the Late Gravettian- in the shouldered point horizon - the largest settlement was at the sites of Trencianske Stankovce I-VI, Trencianska Turna I-IV, Trencianska Turna-Hamre, Mnichova Lehota I, Trencianske Bohuslavice and Zamarovce. The Epigravettian was found at Trencianska Turna-Hamre and Mnichova Lehota-Straze.

The analysis of remarkable finds from the selected sites of Spiš, monitored within the framework of the EU Structural Funds, operational programme Research and Development. From Poprad-Matejovce (Zadné rovne) comes Mousterian point made of the original Levallois radiolarite point. Typologically, it belongs to the Middle Paleolithic. The Štrba (Za Kolombiarkom) site is known for 12 pieces of chipped stone industry from the beginning of the Upper Paleolithic (Aurignacian) and Mesolithic. A unique value can be attributed to the quartz porphyry of Hungarian origin (Bükk Mountains). Three artefacts from the assumed Epipaleolithic were found in Lučivná (Roveň). In the Spišské Vlachy (Plantal) site it is especially a penknife left backed point made of obsidian, belonging to the Epipaleolithic – t he Federmesser or Witów group. Other artefacts are Mesolithic, the obsidian arrow head comes from the Eneolithic. In the Doľany site (Pod Brusníkom) a clay anthropomorphic plastic art from the Middle Neolithic was found. An Eneolithic stone hammer-axe from the Spišský Hrušov – Vítkovce (Medza) site is a rare find. The torso of a clay anthropomorphic idol from Veľká Lomnica (Burchbrich) is related to the Ottoman-Füzesabony Culture, documented in a hill-top site. An incomplete decorated bronze diadem of the Istebné type was obtained from the Kežmarok (Jeruzalemský vrch) site. In addition to Istebné in Orava, analogical diadems are spread in other Slovak regions (Turiec, Gemer), where they are related to the late Hallstatt Orava group of Lausitz Culture. The dating of the diadems of this type is different for individual authors, fluctuating between the HB to HD stages.
