Preizkus modela neinvazivnih postopkov in pristopov za oceno arheološkega potenciala jam na primeru Bele krajine

Janežič, Zvonka (author), Mlekuž, Dimitrij (mentor)

Magistrska naloga je imela dva cilja. Prvi je bil oblikovati model, s pomočjo katerega lahko ocenimo arheološki potencial jam ter ga uporabimo kot orodje za usmerjanje terenskih raziskav na določenem območju. Drugi cilj je bil oblikovati smernice za neinvazivno in sistematično arheološko opazovanje ter dokumentiranje kraških jam v določeni pokrajini. Predlagano metodo sem preizkusila na primeru Bele krajine. Jame obravnavanega območja sem na podlagi pregleda vseh dosegljivih podatkov razvrstila v skupine glede na predviden arheološki potencial. Pri tem sem se naslanjala predvsem na zapisnike Katastra jam Jamarske zveze Slovenije ter na dostopno literaturo in vire. Terensko sem pregledala 57 od teh lokacij. Poleg 11 jamskih najdišč, ki so bila pred začetkom raziskave že zabeležena v arheoloških bazah in literaturi, sem prepoznala še 21 novih jamskih najdišč. Sistematično in usmerjeno terensko pregledovanje jam je razkrilo, da je dejansko število jamskih najdišč bistveno večje, kot so nakazovale dosedanje raziskave.

• Title: Testing the model of non-invasive procedures and approaches for assessing the archaeological potential of caves on the example of Bela krajina

Abstract

The master’s thesis had two objectives. The first was to develop a model that allows the assessment of the archaeological potential of caves and can be used as a tool to guide field research in a given area. The second objective was to establish guidelines for non-invasive and systematic archaeological observation and documentation of karst caves within a specific landscape. The proposed method was tested on the example of Bela Krajina. Based on a review of all available data, the caves in the study area were classified into groups according to their predicted archaeological potential. This assessment relied primarily on the records of the Kataster jam Jamarske zveze Slovenije as well as accessible literature and sources. Field surveys were conducted at 57 of these locations. In addition to 11 cave sites already documented in archaeological databases and literature prior to the study, 21 new cave sites were identified. Systematic and targeted field surveying of caves revealed that the actual number of cave sites is significantly higher than indicated by previous research.
