Despite great popular interest, the subject of chivalry has never before been addressed by the Slovenian museums. Therefore, Knight Lady and Dragon represents an important step toward a better general understanding of this long neglected topic. The exhibition strives to familiarize the public with the latest findings of the Slovenian historiography that has only begun to study in greater detail the history of nobility and medieval chivalry during the last three decades. At the same time, it attempts to bring the authentic message of chivalry closer to the modern audience.

D.10 Educational activities
We collected data of the hoard finds from the territory of the Republic of Slovenia from the Roman times. We analyzed them and then we tried to specify their importance in interpreting the beginnings of the monetary circulation in Slovenia. The finds in the period under consideration are predominated by those that can be connected to military activities; these are certainly the finds from 150–146 BC, from the middle of the 1st century AD, from the Augustan period, from the period of the civil wars, and from the period of the Marcomannic Wars.
F.02 Acquisition of new scientific knowledge
The article deals with three great seals belonging to the last two Counts of Cilli, Frideric II. and Ulrich II. Special attention is paid to the use of and changes to individual iconographic schemes (in fact, every seal is invariably a heraldic device of its owner), but they are also explained in the light of socio-political changes experienced by the family over the centuries and are viewed in the context of the general sealing practice.
