PRÍSPEVOK K TYPOLÓGII RÍMSKYCH KOSTENÝCH IHLÍC

100%
EN
The analysed set of Roman bone pins (253 items) can be divided into 19 basic types, several variants and subgroups. The contribution is the first complex treatment of these finds from the territory of the current south-western Slovakia. They come from the Roman fort at Iža, from the Roman cemeteries I, II, II and the location Bergl in Bratislava-Rusovce, from excavations on Devin castle and from the Roman collection of Podunajské múzeum in Komárno. The typological and chronological analysis of the items draws on knowledge published in works by renowned European researchers. During the entire Roman Period, bone pins were used not only for hair arrangement, but also to fasten clothes – fibulae, in medicine, pottery decoration, etc.

RÍMSKE KOSTENÉ ŠPERKY Z ANTICKEJ GERULATY

100%
EN
Roman provincial jewellery made of bone or antler consists of wide range of objects that can be divided into several groups. The decorative pins belong to the most numerous findings in civil and military environment. They were used in styling hair or joining fabrics. Pearls, charms and amulets of various shapes that adorned neck or hands were produced from bones and antlers. Another group consists of bracelets, pauldrons and rings. The last group consists of earrings and claps; their bony variants were produced in the Roman period. Jewellery made of this type of material appears during the whole Roman period, but their golden age is considered to be mostly the 4th century A.D. A significant increase of combs, needles and bracelets made of bone, antler and ivory on Roman necropolis in this period is linked by many researchers mainly with the Germanic element that influenced events in the north of the Roman Empire. The aim of this paper was to analyse typologically and chronologically a collection of bone jewellery from the graves in cemetery I, II, III and in the contexts of late Roman military camp in the position Bergl in Bratislava-Rusovce (Ancient Gerulata). The analysed group, consisting of approx. 38 pieces, can be divided in functional terms to decorative pins, beads, amulets and bracelets.

RÖMISCHE GLASGEFÄSSE AUS DER SLOWAKEI

100%
EN
In Slovakia there are altogether 261 fragments of Roman glass vessels familiar to the scientific audience (i.e. published), which, however, due to the nature of this material do not necessarily have to refer to the real number of Roman vessels. They come only from the southwest and east Slovakia and they are not to be found in the area of Púchov culture (i.e. the middle and north Slovakia). The first matter discussed in this paper is whether Roman glass was considered a luxury article by the ancient inhabitants of the territory of modern Slovakia. Probably it was, but only in the 1st and at the beginning of the 2nd century AD, when a mass production of the blow glass begun and its prize therefore in Roman Empire and elsewhere begun to fall. Another matter discussed is the question of its origin. It was possible to specify the vessels as products of Italian, Syrian, Rhineland’s, but above all Pannonian manufacturers (i.e. Aquincum, Carnuntum, Arrabona, Brigetio or Gorsium). Typologically there are three kinds of the vessels: drinking service, table set and cosmetics’ vials. There is no archaeological evidence of glass store jars or transport containers. Another interesting phenomenon compared to use in Roman Empire is the fact that none of the glass vessel found in Slovakia was used as an urn for burial purposes and there are no windows glass present (maybe just between the unpublished Materials from Cífer-Pác).

RÍMSKE SKLO Z GERMÁNSKEHO SÍDLISKA V ŠALI-VEČI

EN
During the rescue archaeological excavation in Šaľa-Veča in 2002 a settlement from Roman Period has been discovered. On the basis of the current analysis of excavated material it can be dated between the second half of the 2nd century AD and the first half of the 3rd century AD. In this paper an elementary interpretation of 27 glass artefacts will be discussed, of which 15 are fragments of glass vessels, another 11 are fragments of jewellery (beads) and one is a glass bracelet. A broad typological variety has been indicated by the analysis, showing that the vessels here found were not manufactured only in adjacent Pannonia, but also in more distant manufactories of Rhineland. The beads, the most numerous part of the jewellery, were of various shape, colour and size. The glass bracelet is rather a rare find in Slovakia, having only four parallels in other sites from Roman times.
