A. Bonfinius, an Italian humanist, in his work Rerum Ungaricarum decades describes the reign of Matthias Corvinus 1458-1459 in considerable detail, covering the period from his coronation until his ...death. Narrating the facts, Bonfinius also gives us important insight on Matthia's war against the Bohemian king George of Podebrady 1458-1471. He elaborates on Matthia's reasons to start the war and then describes all relevant military operations until George's death, i.e. until a new king was elected. While insisting on justifying Matthia's invasion of Bohemia merely by faith matters - which was not completely true, Bonfinius still provides us with an objective description of military operations. A long-lasting and rather futile war campaign was soon to provoke a rebellion against the king, headed by the chief dignitaries.
Članek predlaga klasifikacijski sistem za zgodnjesrednjeveške naglavne obročke v vzhodnih Alpah. S pomočjo stratigrafske in topografsko-kronološke analize izbranih grobišč vzpostavlja relativno in ...absolutno kronologijo teh obročkov. Preizkusi uporabnost datiranja z metodo radioaktivnega ogljika C14 in ugotovi, da od druge četrtine 10. st. dalje obstaja velika razlika med dejanskimi koledarskimi datumi in tistimi, ki jih omogoča kalibriranje s pomočjo veljavne kalibracijske krivulje za severno zemeljsko poloblo. Relativne razlike med laboratorijskimi C14 starostmi pa so veljavne.
The first Habsburg estates in Carniola were part of territorial acquisitions in eastern Alpine lands that the ascending dynasty obtained in the war with King Ottokar II of Bohemia towards the end of ...the thirteenth century and then gradually expanded. Even though the Habsburg dynastic territory had by the 1380s covered almost the entire Carniola, the economic base (landed property, which provided the provincial prince with regular income) was considerably limited. A sizeable portion of the territory was burdened by fiefs and pledges. The redemption of one of the vastest sets of pledged estates in the mid-1430s led to the emergence of account books for the following Carniolan fiscal properties: Kamnik, Gamberk, Goričane, Ig, Višnja Gora, Štatenberk, Novo mesto, Kostanjevica with offices Raka and Vivodina, Pazin, Završje, and Vranja. The account books serve as an extraordinary source for the economic history of the late Middle Ages, by also reflecting the turbulent period of the Habsburg European-wide ascendancy and Frederick’s war with the Counts of Celje. The volume constitutes a critical edition of the account books, with the accompanying discussion in the field of property, administrative and political history.
Pristava in Bled belongs among those archaeological sites which, in the extent and inter-connectedness of the information they provide, represent a pattern in which numerous general processes are ...revealed. In solving the puzzle of Pristava, we are also to a great extent settling altogether the generally unresolved problems of the Eastern Alps in the Early Middle Ages.Firstly, a taphonomic analysis of the settlement is presented. This is followed by a classification of the earthenware and its absolute dating. In order to do this, a completely new dating procedure was developed. Although by no means simple, it has nevertheless proved to be both applicable and successful. It is now generally available and of assistance to all.
Predstavljeni so rezultati predhodnih arheoloških raziskav in zaščitnega arheološkega izkopavanja na najdišču Grublje pri Vipavi, ki so potekale leta 2008. Upoštevane so ugotovitve starejših ...raziskav, najdbe so podrobno analizirane. Izkopa - vanja so zajela zahodni rob rimskodobnega naselbinskega območja, ki je bilo verjetno poseljeno od konca 1. do konca 4. stoletja. Glede na odkrite strukture domnevamo, da je na Grubljah v tem času stalo manjše podeželsko naselje, zgrajeno ob robu Vipavskega polja, v bližini itinerarske ceste Akvileja–Emona. Zbir drobnih najdb je pester in podoben tistemu, ki ga najdemo v sočasnih naselbinskih plasteh na najdiščih zahodne Slovenije. Odlomki uvožene namizne keramike in amfor za vino nakazujejo določeno blaginjo prebivalcev raziskane naselbine.
The archaeological excavations of the Župna cerkev cemetery in Kranj began in 1953 and were completed in 2013. The explored cemetery consists of 2,936 graves and the Museum of Gorenjska (Gorenjski ...muzej) in Kranj has inventoried 3,263 items from this cemetery.The purpose of the monograph is the publication of the graves excavated between 1964 and 1970 by Andrej Valič, curator at the Museum of Gorenjska. Data are drawn from all available sources (field documentation, artefacts, photographs, inventory books, analysis of skeletons, etc.).The plan of the graves, which took shape while studying the material, for the first time combines all the previously excavated graves of the Župna cerkev cemetery in Kranj. Because of the size of the cemetery and the high density of burials in some parts, the quadrants are shown by individual pages instead of the usual one-piece insert.The first part of the book is a study on the nature of the data presented, while the catalogue in addition to the usual data contains also comments on all potential oddities and inconsistencies.
The in depth archaeological research of High Medieval castle presented in this book is unique in Slovenia and among just few in this part of Central Europe. The book is based on analysis of the ...archaeological data gathered in more than a decade of archaeological excavations in 1980s and 1990s.In the introductory chapter written sources and interpretative models are presented. The analysis of pictorial representations follows. The focus of the research is on the archaeological sources, though. Above all the analysis of the small finds, stratigraphy and spatial analysis of the castle itself and the castle in the landscape should be mentioned.
Članek obravnava zgodnjesrednjeveški grobišči v Komendi in na Zgornjem Brniku. Na grobišču pri sv. Petru v Komendi so razvidne tri faze pokopavanja, ki ustrezajo karantanski, prehodni in ketlaški ...stopnji kulture Alpskih Slovanov. V najstarejši skupini grobov so identificirani močni vplivi (staroselske) tradicije, ki morda pomenijo etnično pripadnost pokojnikov. Podobna situacija je prepoznana na najstarejšem delu staroslovanskega grobišča na blejski Pristavi in dopušča tesen časovni stik med staroselskim in staroslovanskim delom tamkajšnje nekropole. Grobišče ob podružnični cerkvi sv. Janeza Krstnika na Zgornjem Brniku je interpretirano kot argument za ugotavljanje meje kranjske prafare. Posledica ustanovitve prafare naj bi bilo prenehanje pokopavanja v vseh bližnjih vaških naseljih v okolici in centralizacija v Kranju. Pokopavanje naj bi se nadaljevalo le v od središča najbolj oddaljenih naseljih.
