These solid-hilted swords were unearthed in the River Ljubljanica at Blatna Brezovica and Bevke. The example with a plain hilt dates to the 13th century BC, the one with three ribs on the grip to the 12th century BC. Both finds mark the southernmost edge of distribution areas of their respective types. They are most common in the Upper Danube Basin and the eastern Alps, where they came to light as water finds or goods in rich warrior graves.
