V Certovej Peci / In the Devil's Fireplace

SK Prirodna pamiatka Certova pec je ako sidlisko lovcov nosorozcov a medvedov zo starsej doby kamennej vyznamna archeologicka lokalita. Vyskumom PhDr. Juraja Bartu bolo zistene viacvrstvove osidlenie. Najstarsie, z poslednej medziladovej doby, reprezentuje moustierska kultura zo stredneho paleolitu, nasledovana kulturou szeletien z mladsieho paleolitu. Zaver osidlenia tvorili praveki rolnici na sklonku mladsej doby kamennej.


EN The Devil's Fireplace cave had been traditionally inhabited by primeval man. A Neanderthal settlement was situated here in the last interglacial epoch . The cave was later inhabited by people of the late Paleolithic Szeletien culture. Site of primeval Gravettien rhinoceros and bear hunters, and finally of the first farmers in the late Stone Age.
