The paper is divided into two parts. The first part presents aspects of disappearing traditional agriculture in geographically similar sub-mountainous regions of Romania and central and northern Slovakia as observed during our ethnographic and ethnobotanic surveys. Farming practices and yields of mainly einkorn (Triticum monococcum), production of other cereal crops, some aspects of animal husbandry, as well as extension and division of agricultural land are described. In addition, productive attributes of land under different climatic and edaphic conditions managed by means of traditional farming practices were studied. In the second part of the paper, results of our surveys are compared with some archaeological data on farming practices from prehistory to medieval period.
