Phenomena like charcoal abrasion marks from torches, simple drawings or signs on the walls of Slovak caves were noticed already at the beginning of the 20th century; and, of course, archaeologists and other researchers have paid their attention to them even later. In the course of previous years, the walls of several caves were studied, notably in the Slovak Karst area. In certain cases, they have found charcoal traces and – amongst them – one with the shape of a simple sign even in the Číkova diera cave. Despite the very subtle charcoal layer, it has been possible to date the drawing through a special method focused on extremely small samples in the ANSTO laboratory in Australia (the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation). The result of dating brings us back to Iron Age – or more specifically to the Early La Tène Period (according to calibration median), by confirming that the cave was back then visited by humans, despite the fact that no archaeological finds were discovered.

The Gravettian figurine of a woman from Moravany nad Váhom – Podkovica (district Piešťany) is a rare artistic expression of a person from the Upper Palaeolithic not only in Slovakia but also in Europe and the world. Archaeologist Juraj Bárta played a significant role in its rediscovery and return to Slovakia. Although farmer Štefan Hulman-Petrech found the Venus before 1930, its existence remained unknown in former Czechoslovakia until 1958. Before World War II, and also during it, German archaeologist Lothar Friedrich Zotz participated in archaeological research in Moravany nad Váhom. He did not discover the famous Moravany Venus, but it came into his hands through the factory owner Bernhard Germann. Additionally, in 1943 L. Zotz found another sculpture at the nearby site of Moravany nad Váhom – Lopata, which could also be a statue of a woman. The circumstances of the find were never published. It is interesting not only to remember but also to explain the stories of the Venus from Podkovica and the statuette from Lopata.

In 2014 a unique burial was unearthed in Gerulata cemetery III, containing an unusual number of rings. The buried woman aged 40–49 had two rings on each hand, one of which was a signet ring with a gem depicting the Egyptian deities Serapis and Isis. Another unusual item was a bracelet composed of seven disks with side openings for a string. Two glazed vessels have enlarged the number of known vessels of this type from this site to 13 pieces.

In 2017, in Závod (district of Malacky) during forestry works a destroyed Germanic burial ground dated to the Roman period was found. On the basis of topographical data and composition of finds, it is possible, to identify this burial ground with that mentioned by E. Beninger. The numerous imports from Roman provinces, from areas north of the Carpathian Mountain and Elbe area region, show intensive multiregional contacts held by the local community. There is an ongoing discussion whether this is a proof of extensive trade, cultural influence or ethnic transfers. The burial ground dates back to a period comprised between the last third of the 1 st century and the 4th century.
