The contribution presents first brief information about the finds of glass excavated during archaeological research of the Zobor monastery. The glass finds from the Benedictine monastery of St. Hyppolitus (the 11th-15th cent.) have been preserved only in fragments of window targets, which were usually found in secondary positions; collection of almost 30 glass vessels were revealed at a monk’s abode cellar of the Camaldulian St. Joseph’s monastery (1695-1782). Some glass vessels were made in Italy, from where several monks came after the monastery had been finished in 1695. A glass, most probably early-medieval bead found in a monk’s abode Baroque masonry is a curious find.

The paper presents the first results of the analysis of archaeo-faunal remains from the monastery at Nitra-Zobor site (SW Slovakia). The majority of the 5201 analysed specimens (five samples) came from the cellar and floors of two monk’s houses from the Camaldulese Monastery of St. Joseph (1693–1782). The remainder originated from areas between the houses (one sample), layers connected to the construction and destruction of the baroque monastery (two samples), a single medieval feature (one sample) and unspecified contexts (two samples). The material is dominated by aquatic or semi-aquatic taxa (97.3%) including fish (Pisces), crayfish (Astacus astacus), otter (Lutra lutra), beaver (Castor fiber) and the European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis). Only freshwater fish such pike (Esox lucius), carp (Cyprinus carpio), Danube catfish (Silurus glanis), sturgeon (Acipenser sp.), tench (Tinca tinca), dace (Leuciscus leuciscus), and bleak (Alburnus alburnus) were identified. Large-sized individuals predominate in the assemblage pointing to the anthropogenic selection of fish, and a wealth of natural resources or favourable artificial fishponds. The representation of skeletal elements from the head, trunk and fin indicate that complete fresh fish were brought to the site. Monks consumed whole or portions of fish (traces of butchery and chewing are recorded). The assemblage from house no. 9 had an exclusively fasting character, while house no. 3 yielded bones of domestic mammals - young sheep/goat, cattle, chicken, goose and turkey. The spatial differences are explained through the context of finds, when in the latter are related with the construction and destruction of the baroque monastery. The meat of domestic mammals was probably consumed in the monastery by service staff and other secular persons that often visited and used local public services.

The paper presents the outcomes of geophysical exploration on the premises of the former monasteries (the medieval Benedictine Monastery of St. Hippolytus and the modern Camaldolese Monastery of St Joseph) in Nitra and their confrontation with the outcomes of the archaeological exploration. Several marked anomalies on several areas have been measured through geo-electric and GPR methods. The subsequent archaeological research found out that the measured anomalies reflect the presence of perished walled architectures, or their destructions. The anomalies of apparent specific resistance acquired in the area south of the ruins of St. Joseph´s Church corresponded with the position of unearthed walls of a Camaldolese monastery (monks´ dwellings, stone ceremonial walls, stone water conduit, etc.). The archaeological research on the Baroque terrace in the eastern part of the monastery´s premises showed that an exceptionally marked anomaly with rectangular ground plan does not represent a perished architecture, but the presence of a thin layer of stones from the destruction of the Baroque monastery. The layer of stones originated after the perishing of the Camaldolese monastery (1782), probably only during the terrain adjustments at the end of the 19th century or in the 1st half of the 20th century. Other anomalies captured in this area were caused by stone paving, foundations of polygonal summerhouse and remains of stone walls of the Baroque water conduit.
