"The Burgenland valleys fort Bojná I Bojnianky a valley lies low mountain ridge, which forms part of a larger massif - Žihľavník. On-site duplex was built in narrowing the field quite a few distinct earthworks fortification, creating a complex system of ditches and walls. In the north, the south and east embankments with ditches are visible only here and there and the whole process has not yet been securely identified and focused on the western side (as in the case Bojna I) complex was fortified by a double line of trenches and valov, with two passages through both fortification zone. Today forest road passes through the center of the cross-hill led valov passage, which was probably made in the new era. The mountain ridge is still used as a convenient forest path without large height differences. It is therefore likely that in the past, these communications are used (Perhaps especially in the winter months when the valley was hardly passable). Fortification III, as in the case Bojna I and II, was created to control multiple lines the same distance journey. fortification has not yet been investigated for dating and we have only not very numerous awards from the inner surface of the fortress . Early medieval is mostly about pottery and iron objects without a more precise time of inclusion. About the middle of the area was reviewed in JAMA probing with strong ceramics around the 8th-9th century.

Stop Error production. weapons represents a small hatchet, arrows points to reverse wings and a small fragment of wire shirts with big eyes riveted. at the site were able to obtain only a relatively small number of awards. Their composition points rather than a military housing estate character of the site. Construction work was some hastily constructed, and used only for short periods. Hillforts I and III have a through nature. Pricked were roughly the same terrain - mountain back in the position that in previous periods was sought for defense purposes.Bojná mounds II and III are likely to be side - Aid , but undoubtedly important role of the defense of the wider area of the eastern foothills Považský Inovec and strategically promote the safety background of the central fortress.
