Triglavkas were the initial and the most characteristic element of the uniform of the Slovene Partisans. They were renamed to triglavkas after Mount Triglav, literary meaning three heads, associated with three major Slavic gods. As the ascent on Triglav via its northern face was connected with the competition between Slovenes and Germans in the 19th century, the triglavka symbolically captured the primary drive for the Slovene resistance to the Fascist and Nazi armies, a national liberation. Since June 1943, it was quickly replaced with the titovka, particularly after a decree about caps in April 1944. Few specimens have been preserved, the majority of them being of the third type. Of the first type, only one specimen has been preserved, and of the second type, none have been preserved.
