Weapons and especially the combination of different types of weapons in graves usually serve as a starting point for considerations regarding armament and fighting style. On the basis of regional or temporal differences of the weapons present in the graves and their combination, changes in the way of fighting are deduced. In addition, quantitative differences in the equipment of graves with weapons are often used by others to try to prove differentiated gradations in the social rank of the buried. Apart from the fact that at least some of the weapons can be ceremonial or ceremonial weapons or – especially arrowheads or spears – hunting or competition weapons and not the weapons actually or primarily used in battle, it is problematic to draw direct conclusions from the graves´ inventory about the existence of weapons in this world.

The Danube was one of the most important rivers in ancient geography. Its upper and middle course divided the Romans from the tribes to the north, while its lower course separated the Greek world from the Scythians. In ancient thought it was not only a real natural barrier, but also the boundary of the oikumené, the meeting place between the civilized world and the mythical north. The study considers the phases of the process of discovering the Danube from its first mentions until Augustus, when its whole length was known as a result of Roman expansion. The whole process of exploration is evaluated on the basis of ancient sources, epigraphy and archaeological finds. Relevant events are mentioned, and the sources of various ideas and traditions are analysed.

Some pre-Romanesque churches from the 9th century in the middle Danube region probably have their origins in the architecture of the Adriatic region. The aim of the first part of the article is to contribute to find the origin of the basilica on Receskut Island (Hungary) and identify the origin and form of the basilica on Bratislava Castle (Slovakia), and thereby help to specify their dating. The aim of the second part is an attempt to reconstruct the building development and design of the church No. 10 in Mikulčice (Moravia) and answer the question of the origin of this church.

The article is devoted to the problem of reconstruction of the possible eastern missionary routes of the clergy of the Diocese of Passau in the Danube region in the first half of the 9th century. By the analysis of the Carolingian diplomas of the 820s and 830s, some diplomas of the last quarter of the 10th century, as well as a significant amount of archaeological data, the eastern vector of missionary activity of monks from the Diocese of St. Stephen is outlined on the lands in Marcha orientalis, mentioned in the diplomas of Louis I the Pious (823) and the Bavarian King Louis II (833 and 836), and which were situated mainly along the both banks of the Danube and its tributaries. The author concludes that these possessions represented a holistic “ecclesial bond”, a missionary route that passed through the main monasteries, which were under the church jurisdiction of Passau, as well as through the ancient Roman ways and trade routes that were located in the above-mentioned possessions. In the 830s, after joining of new landholdings around the River Leitha and the Vienna Woods to the Passau’s sphere of influence the outlined missionary route reached even the boundaries of the Moravians’ settlement.

This article examines the Danube as a site of cultural memory and exploration, focusing on the descriptions of Bratislava as seen by British travel writer Patrick Leigh Fermor in A Time of Gifts (1977) and Italian literary scholar Claudio Magris in Danubio (1986; Danube , 1989). For both Leigh Fermor, who saw it in the 1930s, and Magris, who visited the city in the 1980s, Bratislava serves as a border between the familiar West and the exotic East, and as a site of nostalgia for what Magris describes as “a multiple and supranational culture [koiné]”. When seen in relation to the debate over Central European identity in the 1980s, both narratives look to the Slovak capital’s multilingual past as a sign of its “margin centric” history, but Leigh Fermor’s trilogy has largely been overlooked by theorists of Danubian culture, while Magris has been accused of complicity with the forces of oppression (from Habsburg to Communist) described in his work.

Relying on thorough examination of relevant archival documents housed in several European archives, this paper analyzes the attitude of the leading personalities of the Austrian Empire towards the importance of the Danube for Austrian commerce and geopolitical position in Europe in the first half of 19th century. The content is divided into the two main parts, the first dealing with the general views of the Austrian elites of the problematic. It is particularly based upon the crucial memoir of Franz Freiherr von Ottenfels from early 1834 that summarized the advantages for the Danube Monarchy if the river became navigable on its lower reach. This document reflects the views generally maintained by the Austrian authorities and, simultaneously, based the foundations of the further policy in the question of the Danube. The second part of the paper deals with Austria's attempts to make the river navigable from its southeastern frontier to the delta and to persuade the Sublime Porte to agree with regulating works in the Iron Gate constituting the most serious impediment to the shipping and Russia to maintain the water-level navigable in the Sulina Arm being in the tsar's possession after 1829.
