Malec, Juraj ; Slivka, Michal (advisor) ; Unger, Josef (referee) ; Šalkovský, Petr (referee)
The problem of study of habitations (cities, villages, castles, small feudal castles, etc.) on the territory of what is now Slovakia in the Middle Ages counts within little investigated topics. This work is offering a comprehensive catalogue list of all settlemenmts, corresponding to the current state of research in this field, with the focus on fortification system. Specific problems of habitation will be solved on singular models with the most advanced level of archaeological and historical exploration. The region of central Považie was in the Middle Ages a very important part of Hungary, thanks to its straight contact with the region of Morava. A lot of fortification of various types, forming big frontier line, were built for the assecuration of these restless borders. Throught this territory passed the important Váh trade route, with several more-or-less important connections from the region of Morava. In its north part, in the victinity of the castle Budatín lied a very considerable trade crossroad, leading to regions of Silesia and Poland.
