"In the past, material and spiritual expressions of Slovak traditional folkculture, family system and local society, as well as the systems of values, had been deeply influenced by the agrarian lifestyle. The cultivation of the land was realized in given cycles. It was an active battle of the man - creator. Not only the battle for biological values, but also as the means for creating his cultural identity." (Peter Slavkovský, the author)
