Ljubljansko barje v bronasti dobi
V prispevku se osredotočamo na osredje Ljubljanskega barja v bronasti dobi. V tem času naj bi se jezero dokončno umaknilo, površje je preraslo močvirje in barje. Na pomenu so pridobili vedno daljši vodotoki, med njimi je najpomembnejša reka Ljubljanica. Na kratko je predstavljena poselitev. Obširneje se posvečamo kovinskim in keramičnim najdbam iz struge reke Ljubljanice. Preverjamo tezo o ritualno odloženih predmetih, v zvezi s keramiko celo o p…
Verd na Ljubljanskem barju, kolišče iz 5. tisočletja pr. Kr
V prispevku so predstavljeni stratigrafski podatki in analiza arheoloških najdb, predvsem keramike, s kolišča Verd, odkritega leta 2022 na zahodnem robu Ljubljanskega barja. Rezultate preučevanja stratigrafskih podatkov in arheoloških najdb je v povezavi z izsledki arheozooloških, arheobotaničnih in dendrokronoloških analiz dodatno potrdilo radiokarbonsko datiranje, ki naselje okvirno postavlja v 47. stoletje pr. Kr., bržčas celo pred kolišče Res…
Ornamentirano bronasto bodalo z Iga iz zgodnje bronaste dobe
V prispevku obravnavamo najdiščne okoliščine ornamentiranega bronastega bodala s polkrožno zaključeno ročajno ploščo z Iga in zgodnjebronastodobno keramiko z Ljubljanskega barja. Postavljamo tezo, da je nekje na območju eneolitskih kolišč severno od Iga pričakovati tudi bronastodobno naselje in da bodalo lahko pripada temu naselju. Dejstvo, da je bilo bodalo najdeno na najdiščnem območju eneolitskega II. kolišča, je potemtakem zgolj posledica oko…
Eneolithic pile dwellers captured waterfowl in winter
This study presents the results of an ornitho‐archaeological analysis of avian bones from Stare gmajne and Blatna Brezovica, two Eneolithic pile dwelling sites in the area of Ljubljansko barje, Slovenia. Avian bone remains, together with remnants of huts, tools, mammal bones and bones of other vertebrates, represent the material remnant of a pile dwelling culture from the second half of the fourth millennium BC. A total of 2091 avian bones or fra…
Depicting the past of Balkan and Apennine Peninsulas between the Neolithic and Bronze Ages
Faunal remains mirroring social and functional differentiation? The Copper Age pile-dwelling site of Maharski prekop (Ljubljansko barje, Slovenia)
Multi-proxy analysis of waterlogged preserved Late Neolithic canine excrements
X-ray computed microtomography of Late Copper Age decorated bowls with cross-shaped foots from central Slovenia and the Trieste Karst (North-Eastern Italy)
Comparing different sampling methods in order to reconstruct plant economies at the Eneolithic lake dwelling site Stare gmajne, Slovenia
The results of plant macroremains studies of the Eneolithic (c. 3160–3100 cal BC) lakeshore settlement at Stare gmajne on the Ljubljansko barje in Slovenia are presented. Archaeobotanical material was collected in two different ways: (1) systematic surface sampling from the cultural layer, and (2) judgement sampling from an incompletely burnt large loom-weight. The preservation state and the spectra of plant macroremains were different in both ty…

Mineralogical and Chemical Constraints on the Provenance of C opper A ge Polished Stone Axes of ‘Ljubljana Type’ from C aput A driae
In this paper we show the results of a study concerning 42 axes, mainly discovered in the C opper A ge pile dwellings of L jubljansko barje (central S lovenia) and in the neighbouring areas of C aput A driae. The studied shaft‐hole axes, characterized by homogeneous typology but slightly different raw materials, have been called ‘ L jubljana‐type’ axes ( L t). The raw materials show a common OIB ‐like signature and metamorphic and spilitization f…

Spaha
In the collected papers the results of the research on hilltop settlement Spaha above Brezovica pri Predgradu are introduced. The site was excavated by Greta Hirschbäck-Merhar during the years 1979 and 1984. Spaha was settled in the period of Sava group, Lasinja culture, horizon of pottery with furrowed incisions, and probably also in the period of Urnfield culture. In the 16th century on the top of Spaha a watchtower was erected, from which the …
Synchrotron Ftir Micro-Spectroscopy Applied to the Study of Polished Serpentinite Artefacts
In prehistory, serpentinite was one of the most frequently used raw materials to produce polished stone artefacts. Several conventional analytical techniques can be applied to identify the serpentine minerals, but their application generally requires a powdered sample. This implies that the artefacts to be analysed must be damaged, and the possibility of analysing a mixture of different serpentine polytypes is high. The use of spatially resolved …
Shaft‐hole Axes From Caput Adriae
The change of raw materials used to produce stone axes during the Neolithic to Copper Age transition in northeastern Italy, central and western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia (Caput Adriae) has been recently linked to the development of early European metallurgy. Serpentinite shaft‐hole axes occur commonly in the archaeological context of this region and their rounded irregular shape suggests that the raw material was mainly sourced from secon…

Koliščarji
Knjiga na poljuden način opisuje kolišča Ljubljanskega barja, ki so nastala okvirno v prvi polovici 5. tisočletja pr. Kr. Ko pa sta takratno jezero v celoti prerasla močvirje in barje (najpozneje okoli sredine 2. tisočletja), se je gradnja takšnih naselij ustavila. Odtlej so nova bivališča gradili na trdinskem obrobju, kjer so bile dotlej njive. Tam so se koliščarji ukvarjali tudi z rejo domačih živali, kot so govedo, ovce, koze in svinje. Spreml…
Dating of 4th millennium BC pile-dwellings on Ljubljansko barje, Slovenia
The diet of Eneolithic (Copper Age, Fourth millennium cal b.c.) pile dwellers and the early formation of the cultural landscape south of the Alps
Recovery techniques for waterlogged archaeological sediments
Shaft‐hole Axes From Slovenia and North‐western Croatia
A group of Copper Age shaft‐hole axes from Caput Adriae (northeastern Italy, western Slovenia and northwestern Croatia) manufactured using meta‐dolerite have been analysed for major and trace elements. All the samples show magmatic textures and well recognizable relicts of primary mineralogical phases. Petrographic observations suggest an ophiolitic provenance of the protolithic source(s) while geochemical data indicate that the original magmas o…

Resnikov prekop
Resnikov prekop pri Igu je dobro poznano arheološko najdišče, ki ga je pred dobrimi štirimi desetletji v večjem obsegu raziskoval prof. Josip Korošec. Leži na območju s pestro geološko in arheološko zgodovino. Naselbina je uvrščena v t. i. savsko skupino in naj bi živela v 46. stoletju pr. Kr. Najkasneje v 1. tisočletju pr. Kr. je čez prazgodovinsko najdišče tekla tekoča voda, ki je odplavila veliko prazgodovinskih kulturnih ostankov. In the mono…
Hočevarica
The monograph presents the entire course of archaeological and dendrochronological investigations of two pile dwelling cycles at the Hočevarica site in the Ljubjansko barje, which occurred approximately in the 37th and the first half of the 36th century BC. In addition to artefacts from Hočevarica (A. Velušček), the results from paleobotanical investigations (M. Jeraj), a classification of the material from a necklace ring (D. Skaberne and A. Mla…
