ARCHAEOLOGY


Our activity is closely connected with history and one of sciences dealing with history is also archaeology. Pottery finds from archaeological research help us not only clarify the technologies of their manufacturing and designing but at the same time they  provide information about cultures which existed here long time ago. Our  aspirations are not only to produce pottery replicas from archaeological  research but we also would like to get as much information as possible about original manufacturers and about  finding situations. That is why archaeology is our prime interest. If time allows us to do so we participate in archaeological research works too. Besides taking part in lesser  research activities in cooperation with the Trenčín Museum we try to participate in some more extensive research at least once a year.
On this website we would like to inform you about  our archaeological activities, about the people taking  similar  interests as we have and we also want to introduce experts from archaeological institutions and their work.
