Studied area around the Pustý hrad with forests and two antecedent valleys belongs to the most valuable sites in the Zvolen cadastral area. The castle had important role to keep watch on the entrance routes to the rich mining towns during the medieval ages. Antecedent valleys with steep slopes and rocky cliffs create natural conditions of defence. The castle was particularly vulnerable from the forests to the South, where historic access roads are situated. The main aim of the research is identification of the medieval settlements and historic roads dependence to the selected natural factors and conditions. Relations of the historic settlements to the natural environment are observed in the wider region and historic roads are studied in the closer area, in the forests around the Pustý hrad. They are identified by global position and navigation system in the field. We present location and routing of the roads in relation to the relief attributes (slope, meso-forms configuration) and to the geological substrate, where we indicate resistance to weathering of the rocks, in the small spatial segment. We define in the results the complex of important natural factors as: geological substrate, groundwater and springs, specific attributes of relief which limited location of the settlements and related access roads during the medieval ages.

In comparison with settlements finds, more attention was paid in Slovakia to cemeteries or single graves of the La Tene period, but newer evidence of sites of this character from all over Slovakia is still absent. The article deals with the mapping of La Tene period burial findings in the territory of Slovakia. Until now, we have registered 120 locations with evidence of burial in the La Tene period. The presentation of the development and present state of research (processing and publishing) is also an important part of this paper. The focus will be put also on the chronological and geographical aspect of this problematic.

The article is a report on the procedure and results of the archaeological prospection in the cadastral territory of the village Jarok, the district of Nitra. During the research seasons of 2010 – 2012, past settlement in the village was systematically mapped and analysed, in order to clarify and complement its oldest as well as younger history. As a part of the preparation for the prospection, all currently registered sites were mapped, and known data on the cadastre settlement were evaluated. Collection activities, with positive results, were carried out in six sites, in one case the collection was combined with geophysical prospection of a selected quadrant of the settled area. At the same time, aerial images covering the village area were analysed as well, and into account were taken also the vegetation and soil symptoms identified during the remote screening through GoogleEarth service. During the three seasons we managed to collect 4100 pieces of pottery fragments, small features and stone flakes, which increased our knowledge on an almost continual settlement of the Jarok land area since prehistoric times (the Neolithic, Eneolithic, Bronze Age, Hallstatt Period), through proto-historical (La Tene Period, Roman Period) and medieval periods (8th – 9th century, 12th – 13th century, 14th century), up to the Post-medieval Period. The results obtained within the archaeological prospection of Jarok contributed to a higher and more complex understanding of the picture of the distant history not only of the village and its close vicinity, but of a wider area of the middle Danube River Basin.
