Archaeological Monuments is one of the books from edition Cultural Heritage of Slovakia. These monuments are the oldest evidence of the life of our ancestors and they reflect the particular epochs. Slovakia is a country rich in historic fortified or representative buildings, constructed as dwellings not only in AD but also in the BC periods. Numerous fortified settlements can be found in the territory of Slovakia, including the remains of mounds and fortifications, courts or dwellings, which date from various historical periods. In the past, these were the sites of historic events and their owners influenced the course of life in the whole country for many centuries. Today, many of them are uncovered as archaeological excavations. Nizna Mysla, a village in East Slovakia, is an example of a pre-historic settlement of the surrounding of Kosice. Havranok documents the presence of the Celtic population in Liptov. Kostolec, situated on the edge of the Povazsky Inovec Mts, is a fortified court of a Great-Moravian nobleman. The developed Roman Era is documented by the preserved parts of a fortress near the village of Iza near Komarno, the uncovered foundations of a Roman military camp of Gerulata in Rusovce, a part of Bratislava, or the Villa Rustica in Velka luka in the territory of Dubravka, a part of Bratislava.
