Sheep breeding has long been a vital part of the agricultural production of Slovakia. They were already known to prehistoric inhabitants, providing them with meat, wool, milk and skin. Some written records of sheep breeding have been preserved from the early Middle Ages and its importance significantly increased in mountainous areas after the Wallachian colonisation of the 14th to 17th centuries. Sheep farming became the main livelihood in many regions and influenced both the lifestyle and traditional culture of the inhabitants.
