Horný Vadičov
Résumé
Horný Vadičov (Felsővadas) is a village and municipality in the Kysucké Nové Mesto District in the Žilina Region of northern Slovakia.
Because of the villages ancient history, it is difficult to determine exactly when modern Horný Vadičov was established. The village was most likely founded at the end of the 14th century, denoted by a mention to the area in writing in 1385 as Silva Vaditzov. Other written mentions of the name of the village are from 1419 as Vadycho, 1504 as Felse Wadychov, 1773 as Horní Wadičow, and the Hungarian names Felsövadisco and Felsövadas. It was first mentioned in writing as an independent municipality under the name Felse Wadychov in 1504.
Human settlement in today's Horný Vadičov began in the early Bronze Age, denoted by a dated bronze ax found in the village which is now preserved in the collection of the Považský Museum in Žilina. The village at that time was populated by the Lusatian people, denoted by multiple sites discovered proving their existence here. The Lusatian descendants would remain in the area until Roman times, when the area in the Slovak mountains would become more densely populated with other groups of people. Unfortunately due to ignorance, most sets of bronze objects from the Lusatian people have deteriorated or were preserved properly.
In this time, agriculture would become the major economic focus of the village, which paved way for large amounts of slash and burning of the forest around the village, where the new soil would be prepared for sowing.
In the Second Iron Age, the Celtic people settled in southwestern Slovakia, whose culture would eventually spread to the village and northern Slovakia as a whole and evolve into the Púchov culture in the Roman times. During this period, many wooden buildings were erected on the hills and a basic outline of the village was established. According to Latin records, the village in this time period was a "peasant" place to live.
Beginning after the 12th century, the Vadičov valley, where the village is located today, belonged to the royal estates of Starhrad (Varín Castle).
