History, Language & Culture Slovakia

The oldest surviving human artefacts from Slovakia are found near Nové Mesto nad Váhom and are dated at 270,000 BCE, in the Early Paleolithic era. These ancient tools, made by the Clactonian technique, bear witness to the ancient habitation of Slovakia.

 

Other stone tools from the Middle Paleolithic era (200,000–80,000 BCE) come from the cave and from other nearby sites. The most important discovery from that era is a Neanderthal cranium (c. 200,000 BCE), discovered near, a village in northern Slovakia.
