Šmihel pod Nanosom

Šmihel pod Nanosom (pronounced [ˈʃmiːxɛu̯ pɔt ˈnaːnɔsɔm]; Italian: San Michele) is a village in the eastern foothills of Mount Nanos in the Municipality of Postojna in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

Although this is no longer claimed, the site remains one of the most important bases for the definition and chronology of the Iron Age culture known as the Inner Carniola Iron Age Group, with continuous settlement between the 8th and 2nd centuries BC.

As Roman rule was established the settlement was abandoned in the 1st century BC.

In 1890 a major hoard of Roman Republican weapons with over 350 artifacts was found at the site.

A second church, next to the cemetery south of the village, is dedicated to Saint George.
