 Uniqueness in the heart of Europe - Valvasor's in Praise of Duchy of Carniola 3<
The seasonally disappearing and reappearing Cerknica Lake generated a great deal of scholarly interest before Valvasor made the attempt to investigate the phenomenon.
In two years, as he reports, he saw with his own eyes all the stages of the filling and emptying of the lake; he carefully recorded the local names for caves and sinkholes and accurately noted the order in which the water flowed away and how long it took.
Valvasor also prepared a drawing of the Cerknica Basin with water level at the lake's largest extent and together with its natural science and physicis dimensions his work gained great cultural and historical weight.
