The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Jugovzhodna Slovenija statistical region.[2]
Trial excavations in 1988 on the Golo site to the south of the main settlement, confirmed the existence of a Late Bronze Age burial ground on the location. Older literature also refers to Roman graves.[3] The foundations of an 8 m wide Roman road with a possible crossing over the river Krka have also been uncovered in the settlement.[4]
