2022 ABSTRACT In this paper we present 30 preserved boundary marks of the cadastral municipalities from the period of the Franciscan cadastral survey from 1818 to 1819, which we found in the vicinity ...of villages of Sežana, Lokev, Rodik, Markovščina and Materija in Slovenia. The studied boundary marks of the cadastral municipalities are 70 cm or more high, mostly with carved inscriptions, sometimes also with coats of arms, or have a form of isolated, larger rocks, which also have carved inscriptions. Some once had a simultaneous cadastral and trigonometric role, and some still retain this dual role today. With the help of two of them, Križen drev and Kokoš (Jermanec), we have discovered and proved, how the borders of the cadastral municipalities in this area date back at least to the 16th century. ...we can consider the present-day boundaries of the cadastral municipalities in this area of Slovenia as one of the longest-lasting and preserved spatial division.
In this paper we present 30 preserved boundary marks of the cadastral municipalities from the period of the Franciscan cadastral survey from 1818 to 1819, which we found in the vicinity of villages ...of Sežana, Lokev, Rodik, Markovščina and Materija in Slovenia. The studied boundary marks of the cadastral municipalities are 70 cm or more high, mostly with carved inscriptions, sometimes also with coats of arms, or have a form of isolated, larger rocks, which also have carved inscriptions. These boundary marks still mark the official boundaries of the cadastral municipalities today. But some of them also played a more important role in the past, as they marked the boundaries of the districts. Some once had a simultaneous cadastral and trigonometric role, and some still retain this dual role today. Quite a few of these boundary marks are linked to the preserved local oral tradition, associated with the Schwarzenegg estate of the Counts of Petazzi and various mythical monsters that guard the boundaries of the cadastral municipalities. With the help of two of them, Križen drev and Kokoš (Jermanec), we have discovered and proved, how the borders of the cadastral municipalities in this area date back at least to the 16th century. Therefore, we can consider the present-day boundaries of the cadastral municipalities in this area of Slovenia as one of the longest-lasting and preserved spatial division.
In the Karst region near Divača, Slovenia, soils are developed on the limestone of three geological formations: Sežana, Lipica, and Liburnian. In each formation, six soil profiles were dug, limestone ...insoluble residua was obtained, and in Liburnian Formation interbedded material and material filling fractures and cavities was sampled. All soils have silty clay and silty-clayey loam texture, pH levels in the range 4.5–7.0, high organic matter content and saturation with basic cations over 50%. However, soils on the Sežana Formation are deeper and more evolved, and besides as Rendzic Phaeozem classify also as Eutric Cambisol. Their insoluble residuum is richest in mineral part. The profiles on the Lipica Formation are a Rendzic Phaeozem, and the shallowest soils on the Liburnian Formation are either a Rendzic Phaeozem or a Rendzic Leptosol. Additionally, the soils formed over the Lipica Formation are characterised by a greater portion of the small rock fragments (<200 g), due to its paleo-karstification. The insoluble residuum of all three formations is rich in organic matter and fine grained. The general soil chemistry is in accordance with highly weathered upper crustal material and, compared to insoluble residua indicates the contribution of material from an additional source. The analysis of variance demonstrated differences in redox-sensitive elements (Cr, Mo, Ni, U, V, and Y) between formations, which are inherited by the insoluble residua. The insoluble residua contributed material and left a specific geochemical fingerprint in the observed soils, but regarding texture and general geochemistry, non-carbonate material must have been added. The material that fills karst forms inside the limestone profile is similar to the soils, but not identical. Other interbedded and probably also eolian material contributed to the final mass.

•Soils are classified as Rendzic Leptosol, Rendzic Phaeozem and Eutric Cambisol.•Soils are homogeneous in pedological properties and mineral composition.•The limestone of all three formations is pure and insoluble residuum organic matter rich.•Limestone formations influence soil depth and leave geochemical fingerprint.•The contribution of different interbedded and eolian material is probable.
The book 'In the moonlight glow. Outlines of mythic characters in the villages of Lokev and Prelože in the context of Slavic mythology' is a rarity on the European scale in the field of pre-Christian ...beliefs. What makes it so valuable is that it is a first-hand record of these beliefs, as they were told to the author by people close to him, grandmothers, grandfathers and villagers, who preserved their old-faith beliefs and rituals until the last century. The book is therefore an inexhaustible source of old- faith practices, beliefs, sacred places and other folklore traditions in the villages Lokev, Prelože and their immediate neighborhood. As such, it is one of the main sources of study in Slavic mythology, as well as in general and monument to the integration of karst-nature and its people.
