STREDOVEKÁ KERAMIKA NA SEVEROZÁPADNOM SLOVENSKU

EN
The article deals with the closed settlement finds from rural areas from Turčianska kotlina and Žilinská kotlina basins and from upper Váh basin (the current districts of Považská Bystrica and Púchov), which date to the Early and High Middle Ages (8th-14th centuries). Our aim was to create a typology of ceramic material from collected objects and try to determine the chronological development of pottery in a given area. The essential issues included: relative chronology of pottery development in a given area, continuity or discontinuity of pottery development in a given area, relation of pottery production to neighbouring areas (south-western Slovakia, Silesia, Moravia, and possibly Lesser Poland) in the Early and High Middle Ages. Chronologically clear material from the processed area is insufficient and does not cover the whole period of the Early to High Middle Ages. Therefore, the continuity of pottery development can be neither confirmed nor disproved.

This study presents the methods of processing post-medieval pottery on the example of an assemblage from Lietava Castle. During the first step of the pottery analysis, a descriptive system was developed. Quantification monitored the occurrence of selected features and archaeometric analyses focused on ceramic masses and glazes from castles Lietava and Budatín and also city Žilina. The selected files were examined by principal component analysis, cluster analysis and spatial analysis. On the basis of all obtained information, three chronological periods were created – transitional, early modern and pre-modern. Geographically, the ceramic production of north-western Slovakia finds most analogues in Silesia, eastern Slovakia and eastern Moravia.

During a survey of the fortified settlement of Lužice culture in position Hradiská, which was also settled in the La Tène Period, a smaller deposit of iron tools was found at the foot of one of the cliffs of a nearby Late La Tène fort at Martáková skala in 1987. The deposit consisted of a massive iron axe with rectangular socket, a big socketed chisel and a knife with tapering tang. Among La Tène hoards all three objects belong to the most frequent and functionally relatively universal tool types. The axe and chisel were used mainly in wood logging and woodworking; the knife was a versatile tool mostly for domestic use or as a weapon in hunting and fighting. The analysis of the deposit inventory showed that the objects had been produced and buried in the Late La Tène period, at the earliest around the turn of the two last centuries BC (level LTD 1). Thus they belong to the time horizon in which the custom of burying iron tools deposits and the reasons for doing so are the most notable, and concrete acts of such burials are the most numerous. The hoard might also have had a votive character, although find circumstances rather signal accidental and temporary abandonment of the objects. Apart from the referred to hill-forts the article mentions sites in neighbouring villages of Bošáca (the hill-fort is less marked and the character of its settlement less clear) and Trenčianske Bohuslavice (oppidum), whose location and chronological classification are comparable. The article also states an absence of lowland agricultural settlements in the settlement structure of the micro region of Bošácka and Moravskolieskovská valleys.

STREDOVEKÉ DEDINSKÉ SÍDLISKO V BITAROVEJ

EN
The study presents results from the rescue archaeological excavation in Bitarová in the year 2010. Excavation was induced by the construction of highway D1 Hričovské Podhradie-Dubná Skala. At the location Lány in Bitarová altogether 39 settlement objects, dated to the Púchov culture and Middle Age, were excavated. Torso of a defunct village settlement dated to the 12th – 13th century represents the most significant horizon and it is the main subject of this study. It is mostly the remains of economic hinterland of the village stretching along both sides of Bitarovský stream.

This article summarizes the results of the author ś thesis as well as reflects some new facts from his doctoral work. The main goal was to create the evolutional schemes of pottery from cities, castles, bulwarks, manors and similar fortified high-placed locations of North-western Slovakia. Tiles and pipes, as part of potter’s production, are included too. The whole described collection dates back to a relatively long time period, from the High Middle Ages to the end of the Early Modern Age (13th – 18th centuries). The secondary aims include the relations of pottery production to the neighbouring areas (South-western Slovakia, Silesias, North-eastern Moravia, and Lesser Poland), the creation of ceramic-material classes of pottery and the percentage and typological comparison of ceramics from cities, castles and fortified high-placed locations.
