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

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.

The study presents results of the osteological analysis of pear- and ball-shaped artefacts found in the riders' graves from the Period of the Avar Khaganate, interpreted by J. Zabojnik as bludgeons. The main aim of the authoress' investigation was to identify the raw material of the available finds from the territory of Slovakia. The bludgeons from cemeteries in Bratislava, part Devinska Nova Ves-Tehelna (grave 28), Kosice, part Sebastovce-Lapise (grave 94), Cataj-Zemanske Gejzove (grave 148 a 252) and Velky Meder-Vamostelek (grave 25) have been studied. A macroscopic examination of the raw material suggested that all five specimens were made of antler or antler/bone (specimen from Devinska Nova Ves). The preference of using antler for manufacturing the similar artefacts was documented in other archaeological sites of nomadic or semi-nomadic people from the early Middle Age, although other kinds of the raw material of animal origin (ivory, bone) were observed in here as well.
