In the book, accompanying the exhibition in the lobby of the Cankarjev dom in Ljubljana, the earliest preserved pottery figurine depicting a human body was presented. Culturally it can be included into the Horizon with furrow incised pottery and into a broader group of human figurines with stylised depicted body in central and eastern Europe in the beginning of the 4th millennium BC.

In the monograph the authors present the analysis of the burial places and settlements from the Early iron Age discovered in Prekmurje in the last years. The central part is oriented towards the presentation of a specific burial rite under an earthen tumulus with a surrounding ditch which is significant for the Pannonian area. The authors based on spatial distributions of metal finds (fibulae of the Šmarjeta type, pins with multiple heads…) demonstrate the inclusion of this area into the broader cultural and trading connections on the territory between Dolenjska and Eastern Europe.

The article presents the results of the analysis of the grave goods from a Celtic warrior's grave discovered in the surrounding of Ptuj. Special attention was directed to the analysis of the decoration of the sword scabbard of a sword of the Hatvan-Boldog type. It demonstrated the connections to other similar examples discovered on the territory between Austrian Styria and central Hungary. With it's decoration in the plastic style in combination with asymmetric geometric patterns it marks the oldest horizon of Celtic burials in this area which could be dated to 350 BC.

The article presents the analysis of the jewellery from a destroyed rich female grave from the territory of Štajerska. Based on the location the author demonstrates that the burial mounds were much more frequent in the plains as assumed before, but numerous were destroyed and levelled. Based on the analysis of the finds the burial rite of important female individuals is reconstructed and a chronological horizon was determined marked by the fashion of ribbed jewellery which made its appearance in the elite graves from Eastern Slovenia.

In the article the author demonstrates an almost unchanged continuity of the form and use of a hoof knife. The earliest depictions were found on the situlae from the Early Iron Age, but the roman, medieval and modern finds were of the same form. Based on the unchanged form of the tool he demonstrates that a functional form of the toll, which suited its use, did not change and that the technology of the cutting of the horse hoofs did not change in the last 3.00 years also.
