Name
The name of the settlement literally means 'creek, stream'. The village stands on the right bank of Potok Creek, a tributary of the Temenica River. Potok Creek is usually dry, but during heavy rain it is fed by Škavba Spring at Mačji Dol Cave (Marovška zijalka) and the water then flows south through the Mačji Dol Valley (Marovška dolina).[3]

gollark: They could become bad even as an independent company.
gollark: But they are already somewhat worsening Minecraft.
gollark: That would be really annoying for my alt collection.
