Šešče pri Preboldu

Šešče pri Preboldu (pronounced [ˈʃeːʃtʃɛ pɾi ˈpɾeːbɔldu]; German: Schöschitz[2]) is a settlement on the right bank of the Savinja River in the Municipality of Prebold in east-central Slovenia.

[4] Šešče was attested in written sources in 1265–67 as Gehsitz (and as Zesitsch in 1350, Sesiczach in 1424, and Sesitsch in 1450).

The medieval transcriptions indicate that the name was originally *Šešičane, which is a plural demonym formed from *Šešič, and this in turn a patronymic diminutive of a personal name with the root *Šeš- or a similar root, thus referring to an early inhabitant of the place.

[2] Parts of an Early Iron Age burial ground have been identified near the settlement.
