Silovec (pronounced [ˈsiːlɔʋəts]) is a settlement in the hills north of Brežice in eastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Styria. It is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[2]

A Late Bronze Age hoard was discovered by chance in Heathen Cave (Template:Lang-sl) close to the settlement. It included bracelets, necklaces, sickles, and axes, all now kept by the museum in Brežice.[3]
