The author presents an overview of research on the Late antique hilltop sites of Slovenia with a particular concentration on the results of work over the last 20 years. The use of hilltop sites is discussed in chronological order from the 3rd to the 6th Centuries AD. As well as existing as a tightly defined chronological group, different types of sites can be recognised. The author particularly discusses the late hilltop sites, a homogenous group of permanently settled sites from the 5th-6th Centuries AD.
