This review aims to present an updated lithostratigraphic framework of the northern Danube Basin in Slovakia, consistent with recent shifts in geochronology and depositional system redefinitions based on sedimentology and seismic stratigraphy. Several transgressive-regressive sequences are distinguished: Lower Badenian (Middle Miocene), represented...
Región Podunajská nížina-juhovýchodná časť je zo západu obmedzený spojnicou miest Nové Zámky a Komárno, severným ohraničením je spojnica medzi mestom Nové Zámky a obcou Ipeľský Sokolec. Južné a východné ohraničenie tvorí štátna hranica s Maďarskou republikou, reprezentovaná riekami Dunaj a Ipeľ. Z tohto územia bola zostavená regionálna geologická m...

This study examines the suitability of the authigenic 10Be/9Be dating method to the dating of the deposits of an incising river, taking as an example the Nová Vieska river terrace, which accumulated during the neotectonic inversion of the Danube Basin (western Slovakia). The succession was formed by a wandering river with minor preservation of prox...

The authigenic 10Be/9Be ratio provides an important geochronological tool to date a depositional age of clay bearing sediment, nevertheless, recent studies showed that the initial 10Be/9Be ratio might be affected by changes in paleoenvironmental conditions and post-depositional processes. The method is based on the ratio of atmospheric cosmogenic r...
Archeologický výskum bol vyvolaný výstavbou obytného a relaxačného súboru Beethovenova alej – Banka. Na dne stavebnej jamy pre vodojem bola zachytená kultúrna vrstva s archeologickými nálezmi. Nakoľko stavebník, resp. oprávnená osoba, po dohode s KPÚ Trnava, nemusela odkrytú nálezovú situáciu preskúmať v rámci záchranného výskumu, PAMARCH s.r.o. a...
International chronostratigraphic chart showing division of geological time and its numerical ages is regularly updated by the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS). The Slovak chronostratigraphic chart has not been updated since the end of the 1980s. This paper provides an overview of standard procedures for deriving Slovak terms; introdu...
The Paleolithic site in Moravany nad Váhom-Podkovica is located in the north-eastern part of the Moravian settlement area and is among the most famous Upper Paleolithic sites in Slovakia. It is a key site of the Willendorf-Kostenkian and the so-called shouldered Point Horizon in Central Europe. Despite decades of research, interest during the previ...
The site complex between Modrovka and Sokolovce centred in Moravany nad Váhom near the town Piešťany (Western Slovakia) is known as „Moravany settlement area”. It consits in a quite short time span between the Early-Upper (Szeletian) and Mid-Upper Palaeolithic
(Gravettian) also with indeterminate Upper Palaeolithic spots. The sites are distributed...
Trenčianske Bohuslavice - Pod Tureckom represents one of the most important archaeological Upper Palaeolithic sites in Slovakia. Both the findings of the lithic industry and radiocarbon dating results placed the site into the Willendorf-Kostenkian phase of the Gravettian (27 000 – 29 500 years before present). Detailed scientific research was carri...
Age structure, mortality, and sex dimorphism of cave bear (Ursus ingressus) from Medvedia jaskyňa Cave in the Slovenský raj Mts. have been studied on the dental cementum microstructures and dental material excavated during the field campaigns in 2007 to 2009. The site represents a typical cave bear den used for winter hibernation and short post-hib...
The paper presents the results of geological research of the Podunajská rovina Flat (hereinafter Danubian Flat) in terms of stratigraphy of near-surface and surface sediments and palaeo-environmental changes in the period from the last interglacial period (Eemian, about 127,000 years BP) to the present. The period of Late Glacial to Holocene was st...
Mozaika recentného pôdneho pokryvu Podunajskej roviny je výrazne ovplyvnená geologickou stavbou, genézou a typom morfoštruktúrných parametrov georeliéfu, erózno-akumulačnými procesmi počas pleistocénu a najmä holocénu. Recentný pôdny pokryv Podunajskej roviny je špecifický v rámci Slovenska, pretože sa tu dominatne vyskytuje fluviálny reliéf a na j...

Trenčianske Bohuslavice-Pod Tureckom is one of the most important Gravettian open-air sites in the Slovak Republic. It is situated in Western Slovakia, in the middle course of the Váh River, in the area with abundant Upper Palaeolithic settlement. Systematic archaeological research was conducted by Juraj Bárta in 1981–1986, when 478 m2 of the site...
In this paper we sumarize new data, obtained by geo-logical mapping of the Záhorie lowland region in the years 2006 – 2011. The surface of this region is built mostly by Quaternary deposits, while at the eastern margin also less abundant Neogene and Paleogene deposits and Mesozoic and Paleozoic rocks are present. The oldest Neogene deposits are of...
Stable carbon and oxygen isotope values (δ13C, δ18O) of structural carbonate were determined in the bioapatite component of fossil teeth from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. Oxygen isotope compositions of enamel and dentin samples provide new quantitative records of the Late Pleistocene climate in East Central Europe (ECE). These δ18O dat...
Summary:
The Záhorská nížina Lowland forms the westernmost region of Slovakia. Its western border is limited by the border with the Czech Republic and Austria. The eastern frontier passes from the western flanks of the Malé Karpaty Mts. from the Devín – urban part of Bratislava – to the Dolný mlyn located in the southwest of the municipality Hradiš...

Isotopes of Sr were employed in the study of Ursus spelaeus second upper molar M2 from Late
Weichselian bear cave Tmavá skala (Little Carpathians, Slovak Rebublic). Samples of enamel and dentine
were used for the analyses. Variations in the strontium isotope ratio (87Sr/86Sr) were used to examine the
migration patterns. The 87Sr/86Sr ratio of Ursus...

The analysis of dental cementum microstructures was used to determine the age and season of death of bear Ursus deningeri (middle
Pleistocene) from Cave Za Hájovnou (Javoøíèko Karst). We were able to establish the individual age for 6.5 years. To his death came
sometime in the course of autumn. This was posible on the basis of study of summer and...
