Geološko podlago njiv in travnikov v okolici Dolenjega Mokrega Polja tvorijo srednjemiocenski (badenijski) laporasti apnenci. Po vsakem oranju teh njiv se na površju zbirajo hišice ter kamena jedra polžev in školjk. Na nekaterih vrstah fosilov smo opazili sledove predacije (izvrtine), zato smo se odločili, da le te podrobneje raziščemo in na podlagi njihove oblike skušamo določiti povzročitelja. Zanimala nas je tudi pogostnost navrtanih lupin. Poudarek raziskave je predvsem na polžjih hišicah turitel. V okviru diplomske naloge sem pregledala dve njivi: prva (lokacija A) meri 20 m2, druga (lokacija B) pa 52,5 m2 . S površine sem sistematično pobrala vse fosilne polžje in školjčne lupine ter njihova kamena jedra. Na lokaciji B sem večjo pozornost namenila pobiranju čim bolj celih hišic turitel, na katerih sem kasneje določevala mesto izvrtin na hišicah. Vrstno sestavo združbe sem določila s primerjavo favne v zbirki Prirodoslovnega muzeja Slovenije. Določila sem 12 različnih vrst, najpogostejša med njimi pa je Turritella turris. Za določanje vrst plenilcev sem izbrane primerke pregledala na vrstičnem elektronskem mikroskopu. Na koncu sem dobljene rezultate primerjala s položajem in obliko izvrtin pri recentnih turitelah. Ugotovila sem, da so bili najpogostejši plenilci turitel naticidni polži, del izvrtin pa pripada tudi muricidam, čeprav fosilnih ostankov le-teh na terenu nisem našla. Najpogosteje je navrtan osrednji del hišice, in sicer med četrtim in sedmim zavojem. Prav tako so tudi recentne turitele večinoma navrtane na osrednjem delu lupine. V primerjavi z recentnimi turitelami so razlike vidne v debelini lupine, v velikosti hišic ter reliefu lupine. Fields and meadows around Dolenje Mokro Polje are underlain by the Middle Miocene (Badenian) marly limestones. After annular plowing of the fields, shells and casts of fossil gastropods and bivalves, originating from these marly limestones, come to the surface. In some specimens are observed traces of predation (boreholes), that were decided to be explored more detail and based on their shape tried to determine the predator. We also documented the abundance of the drilled shells. The focus of the research is on the gastropod Turritella. As part of the diploma thesis, two fields were examined the first (locality A) is 20 m2 large, the second (locality B), measures 52.5 m2. From the area A, all fossil shells and their casts were systematically collected. At the locality B, the emphasis has been on collecting unfragmented (or less fragmented) shells of the gastropod genus Turritella. The species composition of the assemblage was determined by comparison with material stored at the Slovenian Museum of Natural History. Twelve different species were determined, the most common among them is Turritella turris. Some selected specimens were examined to determine the possible predators by observing the boreholes under the Scanning Electron Microscope. Finally, the obtained results were compared with the position and shape of the boreholes in recent Turritella. The most common predators of turritellids are the naticid gastropods, but some borings also belong to muricids, although no fossil muricids have been found at neither of the localities. The most common drilling position is in the central part of the shell, between the fourth and the seventh whorl. Similar, also recent turritellids are mostly drilled in the central part of the shell. Compared with the recent turritellids, there are clear differences in the thickness, size and the relief of the shell.

The article discusses fossil porgy fish teeth found in Middle Miocene (Badenian) sandy marl from Mastni hrib near Skocjan in Dolenjska. The teeth belong to the species Pagrus cinctus (Agassiz, 1836) and represent the first find in the Krka basin. In sediments of the Central Paratethys and the Mediterranean, the fossil remains of porgy fish are relatively common.

Diplomsko delo se nanaša na šege in navade, ki smo jih in jih še vedno praznujemo na Dolenjskem. Na začetku se dotaknemo osnovnih pojmov povezanih s šegami in navadami ter ob enem razdelimo šege in navade na tri področja, in sicer, na šege in navade življenjskega kroga, delovne ter koledarske šege in navade. Sledi glavna tema diplomskega dela, kjer poudarjamo koledarske šege in navade, ki jih ljudje praznujemo na Dolenjskem skozi vse leto. Skozi diplomsko delo analiziramo glavne koledarske šege in navade, ki so razdeljene po štirih letnih časih. Medtem ugotavljamo, da so nekatere šege in navade tonile v pozabo in jih ne praznujemo več, na drugi strani pa spoznamo nove, ki jih danes praznujemo in katere ljudje v preteklosti niso poznali. Za celovito razumevanje diplomskega dela smo namenili nekaj besed tudi o Dolenjski, s katero so te koledarske šege in navade povezane. This paper refers to customs and habits that were and still are celebrated in the Dolenjska region. First, we start with the basic concepts of costums and habits and we also divide customs and habits into three areas, which include life cycle customs and habits, work customs and habits and calendar customs and habits. Than we focus on the main topi cof the paper:the calendar costums and habits that are celebrated in Dolenjska region throughout the whole year. Later in the paper, we analyse the main calendar customs and habits, which are divided according to the four seasons. While we discuss how some old customs and habits were forgotten, we also observe new costums that we celebrate today and that people did not know in the past. Fort he complete understanding of the paper, we also provide a short description of the Dolenjska region, in connection with the calendar customs and habits.

V vaseh pod Gorjanci smo izbrali 3 tipične stare lesene hiše in opisali konstrukcijske posebnosti njihovih lesenih delov. Hribarjeva hiša z Dolža je vrhhlevna in ima spodnji del zidan. V zgornjem lesenem delu so stene "hiše" iz tesanih bukovih brun in spojene z vezjo na križ. Stene veže pa so sestavljene iz žaganih bukovih plohov, ki so na vogalih in vmes (na sredini daljše stene) spojeni z vogalnim stebrom z utorom. Milanova hiša z Dolža je delno vrhkletna. Kletni del je zidan iz kamna, zgornji pa lesen. Ostenje lesenega dela je narejeno iz žaganih bukovih plohov, ki so v vogalih spojeni na 2 različna načina. Plohi na vogalih "hiše" so spojeni z vezjo na križ, na vogalih veže pa z vogalnim stebrom z utorom. Predhodne dendrokronološke analize kažejo, da je bila hiša najverjetneje postavljena leta 1863 in prenovljena leta 1899. Režkova hiša iz Mirne Peči, postavljena leta 1925, predstavlja novejši tip in je delno podkletena. V lesenem delu so osnovni talni tramovi (blazina in veznica) iz hrastovine. Stene sestavljajo žagani plohi iz smrekovine, ki so v vogalnih stebrih ujeti v utoru. Vogalni in vmesni stebri z utori ter panti stebrov so iz bukovine. V vseh 3 hišah je ostrešje iz bukovine, prvotno slamnato kritino pa so že pred leti zamenjali z betonskimi strešniki. Z anketiranjem 2 se živečih starih mojstrov smo pridobili informacije, da so les za izdelavo objektov sekali v mesecu novembru, spomladi so ga stesali in nato žagali v želeno obliko ter skladiščili do postavitve objektov, ki je ponavadi potekala v jeseni. Tesarji so najprej postavili ostenje poleg načrtovanega prostora, da so povezali elemente in naredili vezi. Nato so ga razdrli in postavili na točno načrtovano mesto, kjer so izdelali še strop in ostrešje s slamo. Les je bil iz domačih gozdov. Za izpostavljene dele so uporabljali hrastovino, za ostenje in ostrešje bukovino, in predvsem v 20. stoletju tudi smrekovino. In villages situated in the foothills of the Gorjanci, 3 typical old wooden houses were chosen, and construction particularities of their wooden parts described. The Hribar house in Dolž is built on top of a stable, and its lower part is made of stone. The walls in the upper wooden part of "the house" (central dwelling place) are made of hewn beech beams joined with a cross binding. The walls of the doorway are made of sawn beech boards, connected with grooved columns in the corners and intermediate one in the middle of the longer wall. The Milan house in Dolž is partially built on top of a cellar. Its basement part is made of stone, while the upper part is wooden. The frame of the woodwork is made of sawn beech boards, joined in corners in 2 different ways. Boards in the corners of "the house" are connected with a crossbinding, whereas those in the doorway with a grooved corner column. Previous dendrochronological analyses told us that the house was likely built in 1863, and renovated in 1899. The Režek house in Mirna Peč, built in 1925, represents a later type, and it is partially built on top of a cellar. The basic floor beams (pad and binding) in the woodwork are made oak. The walls are composed of sawn pine boards, in the corner columns wedged with a groove. Corners and intermediate groove columns and their small handles are made of beech. The roofings of all 3 houses are also made of beech. Originally, they were straw-covered, but were, long ago, replaced by concrete tiles. 2 old craftsmen informed us that wood for different constructions was sawn in November. The wood was hewn and sawn in the desired shape in spring. Then it was stored until building started, which most frequently took place in autumn. The carpenters first built the frame beside the planned site in order to connect the elements and make the bindings. The frame was later disassembled and erected again on the precisely planned site, where the ceiling and roofing were added as well. The roofing was, furthermore, covered with thatch. The wood was obtained from privately owned forests. For the exposed parts oak wood was used, for framing and roofing beech, while in the 20th Century pinewood was mostly preferred.
