The monograph ('Protection and sustainable development of a cultural landscape: the case of Ljubljana Moor') introduces research findings about the structure and functions of the Ljubljana Moor (Ljubljansko barje) cultural landscape. This landscape is composed of a plain with isolated hills (inselbergs) and hills on the outskirts. Floods are still frequent. Due to its exceptional biodiversity, in 2008 the area was proclaimed a landscape park. In the study we identified 28 landscape elements in 3 pilot sites – depending on the geological substratum, water, and land use – which contribute to landscape diversity. Payments to farmers have a significant impact on land use which influences greatly land cultivation and sustainable breeding, while these have a considerably lower influence on the preservation of semi natural landscape elements. We discovered that in terms of sustainability the key tendency is to strive to such a landscape diversity that ensures optimum landscape functioning and various ecosystem services.The analysis of landscape changes over 4 study periods showed that, initially, agriculture, settlement, and water management were the main drivers~however, over recent decades the importance of nature protection and tourism has increased. In today’s landscape there are two conflicting trends: intensification and land abandonment . Znanstvena monografija podaja spoznanja o strukturi in funkciji kulturne pokrajine Ljubljanskega barja, ki jo sestavljajo ravnina, sredi katere se dvigajo osamelci, ter hribovje in gričevje na obrobju. Večji del območja, ki ga bistveno zaznamuje voda in izjemna biotska pestrost, je bil leta 2008 razglašen za Krajinski park Ljubljansko barje. V raziskavi smo na treh pilotnih območjih identificirali 28 pokrajinskih gradnikov, ki so odvisni od geološke podlage, vode ter od rabe zemljišč in prispevajo h pokrajinski pestrosti. Pomemben vpliv na rabo zemljišč imajo kmetijska plačila kmetom, ki največ prispevajo k obdelanosti zemljišč ter sonaravni reji, precej manj pa k ohranjanju bolj naravnih pokrajinskih gradnikov. V monografiji ugotavljamo, da je z vidika trajnostnosti ključno stremljenje k takšni pokrajinski pestrosti, ki zagotavlja čim boljše delovanje pokrajine in več različnih ekosistemskih storitev. Analiza razvoja pilotnih območij v štirih časovnih obdobjih je pokazala, da so bile sprva v pokrajini glavne gonilne sile kmetijstvo, poselitev in upravljanje z vodo, v zadnjih desetletjih pa postajata vse pomembnejši gonilni sili naravovarstvo in turizem.

The monograph presents the entire course of archaeological and dendrochronological investigations of two pile dwelling cycles at the Hočevarica site in the Ljubjansko barje, which occurred approximately in the 37th and the first half of the 36th century BC.In addition to artefacts from Hočevarica (A. Velušček), the results from paleobotanical investigations (M. Jeraj), a classification of the material from a necklace ring (D. Skaberne and A. Mladenovič), analyses of metallurgic instruments (Ž. Šmit) as well as organic remains of mammals (B. Toškan and J. Dirjec), fish (M. Govedič, J. Pavšič and J. Dirjec) and birds (F. Janžekovič and V. Malez) are also presented. V monografiji so predstavljene najdbe in najdišča v osrednji Sloveniji ter sosednjih pokrajinah, ki se jih uvršča v novo definirani horizont keramike z brazdastim vrezom, tj. v okvirno 2. četrtino 4. tisočletja pr. Kr.

The Ljubljanica River with its tributaries has witnessed no less than a quarter of a century of organised underwater research. The latter has shown that the archaeological complex there unquestionably ranks among the most interesting ones in Slovenia with the finds from the beds and banks of the waterways speaking of nearby settlements, cemeteries, forts, control points or places of cult.These, together with various types of river vessels and other traces of water exploitation, improve in many ways the knowledge of the phenomenon that is the Ljubljansko barje as a cultural landscape as well as its specific dynamics closely related to the natural changes in the environment from the early periods of the prehistory onwards. Organizirane podvodne raziskave barjanskega dela reke Ljubljanice s pritoki so pokazale, da gre za nesporno enega najzanimivejših arheoloških kompleksov pri nas. Najdbe iz rečnih strug in bregov pričajo o bližnjih naselbinah, grobiščih, utrdbah, nadzornih točkah ali kultnih mestih ter skupaj s plovili in drugimi sledovi izrabe vodnega prostora dopolnjujejo poznavanje fenomena Ljubljanskega barja kot kulturne krajine in njegove dinamike, ki se je od starejših obdobij prazgodovine naprej tesno prepletala z naravnimi spremembami okolja.
