Abstract
The owners of the Matičkova farm (Sevno, Slovenia) intended to reconstruct the house and the pigsty in agreement with their original appearance. Knowledge on the age and history of the buildings and the timber used for constructions would help to do this. For this purpose 62 samples of wood were taken from the constructions and wood identification and dendrochronological dating were done in accordance with standard methods. The structures have been made of oak (Quercus spp.), sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa), beech (Fagus sylvatica), alder (Alnus glutinosa), birch (Betula pendula), willow (Salix spp.), and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). 18 samples of oak, one sample of chestnut and one sample of beech have been dendrochronologically dated. Based on the end dates of different timber elements we assumed that the house was most likely built at the end of 1877 or soon after that. The pigsty was built after 1927. In both objects we could determine when the repairs or reconstructions of the structures took place. In the project was involved a group of students of the Department of Wood Science and Technology.
