    In this article crossbow fibulae with a firm catch plate and  with  a  knob  bow  of  the  5th and 6th  centuries  found in  Slovenia  are  presented.  We  have  also  added  new  finds to their distribution in the southeastern Alps and tried to show  that  they  were  used  by  the  Romanized  population. Also, we discuss the rare finds of Balkan crossbow fibulae with  an  inverted  foot  in  Slovenia,  which  reflect  the  less well-known Byzantine presence in the 6th century.
