Bridges

There are two notable bridges over Nevljica:

  • The Mammoth Bridge (Slovene: Mamutov most) in Nevlje.[1]
  • The bridge over the Nevljica in Mekinje, built between 1952 and 1955. Its location was chosen by Jože Plečnik, and its detailed plans were drawn up by his assistant Anton Bitenc based on Plečnik's plans.[2]

1938 finds

In January 1938, due to erosion and frequent flooding, the administration of the Drava Banovina started to regulate the bed of the river. In addition, a bridge was to be built. On 14 March 1938, workers at the site found objects that were later shown to be an almost complete skeleton of a woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius). An Upper Paleolithic archaeological site was established in Nevlje. Remains of other animals as well as a human tool were found, and it was shown that around 22,000 years ago there was a human hunting settlement in the area. The skeleton gave its name to the bridge over the river in Nevlje.

gollark: You also run into the problem that you couldn't cryptographically validate that something was signed by someone's brain-TPM-thing™ and not just a computer running the signature algorithm, unless you have some organization give it a certificate, which then gives them unreasonable amounts of power.
gollark: It's much easier to remember a sequence of random words than a long string of numbers, but if you want to operate on the wordy one you also need to store a big lookup table, which defeats the point.
gollark: Besides, the easy to operate on forms are also annoyingly hard to remember.
gollark: Oh yes, I'll just ??? elliptic curves mentally.
gollark: Well, you could memorize a cryptographic key, although this might be impractical.
