Slatina nad Bebravou (Hungarian: Felsőszalatna) is a village and municipality in the Bánovce nad Bebravou District of the Trenčín Region of Slovakia.
In 2018, archaeologists discovered relief-decorated shoulder boards made from bronze that were part of a breastplate of a Greek warrior at a Celtic sacrificial place near the village. Deputy of director of Slovak Archaeological Institute said that it is the oldest original Greek art relic in the area of Slovakia. Researchers analyzed the pieces, and determined they were once part of a relief that depicted the Amazonomachy.[5]
