The author presents the results from his study of a part of necropolis in Cierny Brod dated to the Avar Khaganate period and the settlement features dated to the early-medieval period. The part of Avar-Khaganate necropolis is represented by 19 burials. Among them the equestrian grave 63 with a partial burial of the horse is exceptional. This is the second known case of such way of burying from the late phase of the Avar Khaganate on the territory of Slovakia, as till now the graves with partial burial of the horses were unambiguously dated to the early phase of the Khaganate. Their finds are the most frequent in the river Tisa basin. At the other regions of the Carpathian basin they are more or less rare. Important is also a collection of the finds from the grave (88), in which a cast bronze belt garniture was revealed. Among them a main belt strap-end is remarkable. Its front side is decorated with composition called 'fighting animals' or so-called 'three-piece ornament'. Exceptional presentation of this relatively frequent motif enables us to classify the strap-end to the 'Nyekladhaza type'. Its back side is decorated with a rather rare feather ornament. The set of the belt mounts included also the quadratic mounts with the pendants decorated with a griffon. The other graves had relatively poor equipment (simple ear-rings, beads, iron knives, sickles, etc.). Two wooden buckets, from which their iron platings were preserved, and a set of five pottery pieces represent the vessels. These were found in the children graves. They are mostly the winded exemplars. The part of the necropolis under study, on which probably relatively poor community buried their deceased members, can be dated to the first half of the 8th century. The early-medieval period is represented also by the settlement objects (one dwelling with two adjacent depressions and two pits). Considering absence of metal artefacts that could make their dating more precise, in their chronology we have to rely on dating of numerous pottery fragments. These allow us to classify the settlement objects only the general features to the end of the 9th and the 10th centuries.

The article evaluates the lithic industry from the site of Košice-Galgovec within the Eastern Linear Pottery Culture and in comparison with finds from Košice-Červený rak and Čečejovce. The finds were obtained during investment investigations in 1997 – 2000 along the route of the Myslavský stream where the settlement of the oldest phases of the Neolithic – the protolinear phase (Košice-Červený rak), Tiszadob group (Galgovec I – III), Bükk culture on both sites – was concentrated. The settlement by the Tiszadob group is found on the site of Galgovec III, feature 2/97, dated to: 6310 ± 40 BP, calibrated 5300 – 5210 BC and 6261 ± 35 BP, calibrated 5170 – 5140 BC. 654 chipped stone artefacts of the Tiszadob group were analysed as well as 28 examples of rough industry and 204 artefacts from the mixed horizon of the Tiszadob group and the early phase of the Bükk culture (feature 8/2000). Compared to older periods, obsidian was used more frequently in the Tiszadob group. The changes in the typological-technological content of the inventories probably reflect the various functions of the settlements.

Barta's excavations in the years 1959-1968 revealed multiple settlements at Nitra I-Cerman functioning during the Upper Gravettian. The finds were dated to the shouldered point horizon on the basis of typological structure of artefacts, their stratigraphic position in loess profiles as well as their dates: 14C - GRN-2449 = 22 860 ± 400 BP - a layer with archaeological finds on the base of upper loess; 14C - GRN-2456 = 24 220 ± 640 BP - humic horizon attributed to the 'Cerman oscillation'. The oldest settlement comes from the end of the formation of humic horizon, the next one is connected with its surface and two phases were situated in the lower part of the upper loess. Chipped artefacts and bones of reindeer, horse and mammoth were concentrated mostly around the hearths. Chipped stone industry is represented by assemblages with mostly burins, backed tools, among them shouldered points, microliths and retouched blades. End-scrapers, retouched truncations, perforators, truncated flakes, denticulated and notched tools are less numerous. Dominant raw materials are radiolarite (63.8%) limnosilicite (21.5%) and erratic flint (5.1%). Besides the sites of the shouldered point horizon in the Vah basin, Nitra I-Cerman is a significant settlement unit in the Nitra river basin. The connection of these two regions through the Jastrabske sedlo was the route of hunter groups looking for radiolarite sources in the vicinity of the Vlarsky priesmyk and farther for erratic flint in Silesia.
