ZALOG NEAR VERD. Stone Age hunters' camp at the western edge of the Ljubljansko barje Toma VERBIČ Geological and pedological analysis of sediments from core samples Abstract The article deals with lithostratigraphic column of sediment sequence from the side of the Ljubija Stream in the area of Mesolithic site of Zalog near Verd. The contact between the polžarica and the sandy sediments can be interpreted as a single, sharp, and clear transition from a lacustrine to an alluvial environment. This discordance was most probably caused by erosion which might have removed the sediments formed either during the transition from the lacustrine to the boggy environment or in the boggy environment itself. Key words: Slovenia, Ljubljansko barje, geology, sediments, paleoenvironment
