Podsitarjevec (Slovene pronunciation: [pɔdˈsiːtaɾjɛʋəts]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Litija in central Slovenia. It is now part of the town of Litija.[2] The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Central Sava Statistical Region.[3]
Geography
Podsitarjevec stands in the southern part of Litija, below the southeastern slope of Sitarjevec Hill (elevation: 448 meters or 1,470 feet).
History
A hillfort on top of Sitarjevec Hill dates from the late Iron Age and was found in 1994. The hillfort was populated until Roman times.[4]
The modern settlement of Podsitarjevec is relatively young; it was initially populated by factory and mine workers associated with the lead mine at Sitarjevec Hill.[1] Podsitarjevec had a population of 23 living in eight houses in 1931.[1] Podsitarjevec was annexed by Litija in 1955, ending its existence as a separate settlement.[5][6]
