During the archaeological development-led excavation carried out as a part of the construction of the road infrastructure, three separate archaeological sites were investigated in the year 2011. Two of them, in the Drnové and Richtárske site, can be dated to the Middle Ages on the basis of the discovered finds. The settlement of the third locality, at the site Pod záhradami, belongs to the open habitation from the late Roman period. All of them were located on the banks of the Derňa stream. Settlement features including pit houses, storage pits, a water well, pyrotechnological equipment, and other settlement pits were identified. Rare finds prove the use of the site even at the end of the eneolithic. This paper is focused on the analysis of the archaeological contexts, settlement features, and archaeological finds. Emphasis is placed on the detailed examination of pottery and other associated artefacts. It examines also possible interpretations of the sites on which the artefacts were found and evaluates them in the context of prehistoric and historic settlement.
