The problem of the lack of archaeological findings, based on the example of Šibeničná hora hill in Stará Ľubovňa. An example of lost potential heritage

Stará Ľubovňa is a place that was settled in the medieval period. This town has archaeological sites that date back to prehistory and archaeological findings provide an opportunity to implement pre-investment rescue fieldwork. However, when locations in the given area are not identified, unlimited construction work can take place. A place called Šibeničná hora can be a good example. Nevertheless, it seems that evidence of earlier “exploitation” of the hill could exist here. This short text examines problem of archaeological inference and potential destruction of archaeological sites as a result of construction works.

Abstract

Stará Ľubovňa is a place that was settled in the medieval period. This town has archaeological sites that date back to prehistory and archaeological findings provide an opportunity to implement pre-investment rescue fieldwork. However, when locations in the given area are not identified, unlimited construction work can take place. A place called Šibeničná hora can be a good example. Nevertheless, it seems that evidence of earlier “exploitation” of the hill could exist here. This short text examines problem of archaeological inference and potential destruction of archaeological sites as a result of construction works.
