Abstracts

EN

The study aims to reconstruct land usage at the confluence of Radoľský stream and Kysuca river on the basis of critical historical research of 16th century archival documents, and historical maps from three military mappings (1789, 1823 and 1882). The study uses methodological procedures based on verified historical-geographic, environmental, and historical-landscape methodical analyses. The conclusions were complemented by field research. Digital modelling allowed reconstructions (digital maps) of the land cover to be created, i.e. land use in the given time period.
