Arheološki drobci vojaških prvin pozne rimske dobe na Gorenjskem

Abstract

The article discusses the strategic importance of the Slovenian region in the late Roman period, with its numerous expeditions by armies and major military conflicts. This is proven by written and archaeological sources. Important secondary passes into the northern Italic region also existed on the flanks of the main military routes. Such a route extended upstream along the Sava River through the Kanalska valley towards Italy. Its character is indirectly indicated by several fortifications in the vicinity of the road, finds of late Roman weapons, and cave strongholds.
