description New results of the NA49 collaboration on strange particle production are presented. Rapidity and transverse mass spectra as well as total multiplicities are discussed. The study of their evolution from AGS over SPS to the highest RHIC energy reveals a couple of interesting features. These include a sudden change in the energy dependence of the mt-spectra and of the yields of strange hadrons around 30 AGeV. Both are found to be difficult to be reproduced in a hadronic scenario, but might be an indication for a phase transition to a quark gluon plasma.
