Title: Landscape archetypes as the elements of Slovak historical landscape structure
Author: J. Hresko, D. Kanasova, F. Petrovic

Abstract: The landscape view being actualized by using the aerial and satellite shots enables to differentiate other dimensions of landscape changes and developmental cognition in the context of horizontal relations and physiognomic features that cannot be realized within the ordinary terrestrial mapping. The paper offers new knowledge in the field of landscape structure understood as the archetype, i.e. the landscape example that had been formed by different processes during the individual phases of socio-economic land development, in the cognitions of changing land factors. The example of several landscape types of Slovakia and cognitions of different forms of landscape utilization enable the differentiation of quite the large archetypes representation reflecting relations among the human being activities and changes in the composition of landscape structure elements. We want to mention one of the first approaches of landscape archetypes identification and classification as well as creation of the new methodical searching process dealing with time-to-spatial landscape changes.

Keywords: landscape archetype, remote sensing, landscape changes, social-economical landscape development
