Decorative ceramic tablewares have been imported onto the territory of today Slovenia from the 14th century onwards, mostly from northeastern and central Italy (maiolica, graffita), and around 1400 also from Spain (maiolica). A constant supply of the market with imported pottery can only be documented for the late 15th century and the following period. In the mid-16th century, a local production of painted and engraved pottery was established in the regions of Carniola and Istria, inspired by Italian models in the context of the positive economic trends and increasing social differentiation.

A gradual demic diffusion model from south to north and a millennium time span vector find no confirmation in the set of AMS 14C dates and associated contexts that mark pottery dispersal within Southeastern Europe. The first ‘demic event’ that was hypothesised to reshape significantly European population structure and generate a uniform process of neolithisation of southestern Europe has no confirmation in frequency of Y-chromosome subhaplogroups J2b and E3b1 distribution within modern population in Southeastern Europe.

Paper presents the rationale, application and interpretation of LIDAR data for the understanding of development of complex and dynamic landscapes . Its precision, ability to "see" through vegetation cover and three-dimensional digital surface model, which is the result of the method, offers a great potential in the study of archaeological landscape and understanding of anthropogenic and geomorphologic processes, which shaped and reworked it.
