Syncretic religions seem to be a universal phenomenon typical of the post-contact period in various parts of the world. They share quite a few typological features (despite their different genesis) since they represent a reaction to very similar if not identical circumstances, inevitably combining features of Christianity with some aspects of local religions. In Polynesia they arose as millenarian movements blending a variety of local motifs and mythological elements with various ideas of Christian provenience and appeared in several archipelagoes in the era of Christianization. The rise of syncretic sects may also be interpreted as a defensive mechanism and occasionally as a rejection of the new religion.

In 870 the Bavarian bishops drafted a file Conversio Bagoariorum et Carantanorum (On conversion of the Bavarians et Carinthians, in short Conversio), in which they described their Christianization activities in the area of Pannonia and Carinthia. The file was created in response to the appointment of Methodius as the archbishop of Pannonia and papal legate for Slavic countries, in which their saw a threat to their jurisdiction and interference in their own interests. We have the only detailed information in this file about the troubled fate of Pribina – the ruler of Nitra. There is stated here that „Archbishop Adalram consecrated for him a church on his own property beyond the Danube in a place called Nitrava“. This figure has already given a rise to lot of considerations and studies, which in many ways remain open to these days. In this context it is necessary to ask for answers, in what ecclesiastical and jurisdictional situation was this consecration happened, in what time period, where it is possible to assume that sacral building and what can be said about their architectonical conception. The following article will try to answer these and other questions.

During the turbulent Migration Period, the late antique population of Roman provinces sought protection in easily defendable prehistoric hillforts that had been previously abandoned and such sites became the region’s new centres. One of such forts has been investigated at the archaeological site of Majka Božja Gorska in Lobor. In the early decades of the 6th century, the fort experienced its construction peak and an early Christian church with a separate baptistery building was built. A cemetery was located around the church, with graves with inventory consisting of objects mainly associated with the late antique population and the Germans. The time when the Slavs occupied their new homeland is still very poorly explored, and the end of life of their predecessors, the late antique population and the Germans, can still be better tracked as opposed to the beginning of life of the new Slavic population. During the 9th century, Lobor would become one of the most important ecclesiastical and political centres of Lower Pannonia.

The author of this article researches the process of the Christianization of Central Europe from the point of view of inconsistence of theoretical scopes contained within the opinions of ideologists of the Christian empire at the court of Charlemagne and the real process of Christianization. Charlemagne’s ideologists emphasized the significant role of morality, its values and norms within the propagation and acceptance of the Christian faith. However, the real form of Christianization covered firstly the acquirement and the maintenance of military, political, economic and social power of the Kingdom of the Franks over Christianized and subjugated countries and ethnicities. The author points out in this regard the ambivalence of the whole process of Christianization at the level of foreign and even domestic politics of this particular period of time, which indeed has far-reaching historical consequences.

Alexander Ruttkay and Karol Pieta interpreted the graphemes on plaques as the Latin letters, which was confirmed also by Ľubomír Kralčák, contrary to Paul Žiga. They could deduce neither the importance of image nor text, since they did not watch the symbolic expression of the imaged situation. Just the connection between graphemes and figures leads to the interpretation of figures and text on a plaques from Bojná: Christ – plaques No. 1 and 4, Blessed Virgin – plaque No. 3, the Apostle Thomas – plaque No. 2, Seraphim – plaque No. 5 and cherub – plaque No. 6. The images correspond to the shape of the plagues, image of wings and lips, as well as the importance of plaque, which is highlighted in the Latin graphemes representing the text with a clear missionary message destined for Slavs of Great Moravia. The events just before and after the most important moments for humanity are imaged on a set of plaques, in terms of the life of Jesus Christ and his message. Pilate condemns Jesus to death and reanimated Christ shows himself to all eleven apostles. This also includes the graphemes: (E)VAVM – „Est ex eritate, Audit Vocem Meam“ (Jn 18, 37) and NDE – „Noster Dominus (or Deum) Est“. The plaques from Bojná are the authentic testimony of Christianisation of the Moravian Slavs before the arrival of the Byzantine mission led by Constantine-Cyril and Methodius. We admit that even our view of the content and hidden text of plaques may not be definite, but they cannot be even correctly deduced without the theological understanding. Just theological interpretation can stand closest to interpretation of imaged figural motifs and Latin graphemes on the plaques with full respect for knowledge summarized by archaeologists K. Pieta and A. Ruttkay. At the same time thus the arguments of Ľ. Kralčák about use of Latin graphemes as a basis for the biblical text are confirmed.

In the overview on Christianization in the Central Danubian territory, mostly in Slovakia, the author focuses on the origins of Christianity among Slavs, the issue of Great Moravia, missionary work of Constantine and Methodius and the topic of continuity of Christianity in the 9th – 11th centuries. He pays attention to several arguable points in the interpretation of sources and he attempts to describe wider cultural and historical context of early Christianization phases of Slavs from Upper Danube region. He emphasizes the informative value of certain archeological findings related to Christianization from multiple directions – western (Kingdom of the East Franks), south-western (northern Italy, Adriatic region) and southern (Byzantine Empire).

The study examines the political context of the presence of the Thessalonian brothers Constantine and Methodius in our territory prior to 868. Although outwardly the purpose of their mission was christianization and education, its actual nature was political. The educational, cultural and spiritual aspects of Constantine and Methodius’s activity merely reflected the political bottom line. Their political efforts resulted not only in the creation of the first Slavic writing system and in the translations of parts of the Bible into Old Church Slavonic, but also in the establishment of the first nationwide Slavic educational institution and the first written language, literature and culture of the Slavs. The political role of the Thessalonian brothers strengthened the sovereignty of Great Moravia’s statehood and laid the foundations of the Cyril and Methodius tradition, which has been an integral part of the national history of the Slovaks and Slovak statehood.
