What does the Šárka stage mean? And did it ever actually exist
Šárka style is a term that has been used for over a century to describe a distinctive final Linear Pottery Culture (LBK) pottery style in Central Europe. However, its definition and the general perception of a related Šárka stage vary significantly among scholars, impacting significantly the chronology and understanding of the end of the Early Neolithic. This article examines the concept using the Statenice settlement as a case study, which has b…
Rethinking Key Transformations in the Neolithic and Bronze Age Central Europe
The past two decades have revolutionized our understanding of European prehistory, shaping new grand narratives focused on core regions with rich archaeological records. These studies suggest that major sociocultural shifts in central Europe, such as the Early Neolithic transition to farming, the spread of steppe ancestry during the Late Neolithic, and the rise of complexity at the beginning of the Early Bronze Age, were synchronous across extens…
House unit of the Linear Pottery culture
The aim of the article is to critically evaluate the existing approach toward the Linear Pottery culture (LBK) settlement space in terms of the character of the pits, their fill and pottery decoration style. It is traditionally and implicitly assumed that the pits in the vicinity of a house (so-called house unit) are of the same period of formation, filling, and demise, so their testimony is usually considered comparable. However, research into t…

Trampoty s chronologií nálevkovitých pohárů
V diskusním příspěvku polemizujeme s nově navrženou chronologií kultury s nálevkovitými poháry na základě modelace radiokarbonových dat z především pohřebních lokalit, kterou představili M. Šmíd et al. (2021). V kritice se zabýváme jednak teoretickým přístupem ke studiu pravěkých společností, způsobem výběru radiokarbonových dat, metodou modelace radiokarbonových dat a absencí diskuse v situaci, která ji snadno umožňuje. Na závěr představujeme vl…
Eneolitický kostrový pohřební ritus na Moravě ve světle radiokarbonového datování / The Eneolithic inhumation burial rite in Moravia in light of radiocarbon dating
The article addresses the chronology of Eneolithic inhumation burials in Moravia based on radiocarbon dating. A total of 17 individuals were dated using 20 radiocarbon dates, primarily individuals without grave goods or individuals from problematic contexts. The study mainly covers the period of the Early Eneolithic, to a lesser extent the Middle and Late Eneolithic. The find contexts and anthropological assessments are newly published for most o…
How do they fit together?A case study of Neolithic pottery typologyand radiocarbon chronology
The object of the paper is to update the current concept of the chronology of the Neolithic (c. 5400–3300 BC) of the Czech Republic and northern Lower Austria by comparing the typo-chronological development of pottery and modelling the corresponding radiocarbon dates. Up until now, pottery and its style have often been perceived in Central Europe as “basic indicators” of archaeological cultures or pottery traditions, which are then further divide…

How Was Neolithic Pottery Fired? An Exploration of the Effects of Firing Dynamics on Ceramic Products
Archaeology of Slavery From Cross-Cultural Perspective
Slavery is difficult to ascertain in the archaeological record, especially because of the lack of material evidence. Using the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample of 186 societies, our aim was to find indirect and easily identifiable indicators of the presence of slavery. The results show links between slavery and the expected and familiar domains (e.g., warfare, polygyny, social and political integration) as well as its relationship to metallurgy, wh…
Beyond the technological chain
Formal and technological attributes of pottery mirror potters’ habitus, actions, and decisions inhibited or stimulated by users of pottery. The variability of these attributes in time and space reflects networks of producers embedded in a complex social network. But how the knowledge of pottery manufacturing processes can be used to gain more accurate understanding of the society behind the “chaînes opératoires” when the basis for the interpretat…
Synopse populační genetiky evropského pravěku
Dějiny lidských populací (změny v počtu obyvatel a jejich původu) jsou jednou z domén biologické antropologie, resp. archeogenetiky. Za poslední desetiletí došlo k významnému rozvoji molekulárně-genetických a biostatistických postupů, jejichž prostřednictvím bylo možné rekonstruovat demografické změny minulých populací v nejrůznějších částech světa. V době, kdy se genetické postupy při rekonstrukci pravěku utvářely, jsme vycházeli z limitovaného …
An On-Site Presentation of Invisible Prehistoric Landscapes
Terms such as "virtual" or "augmented reality" no longer represent a million light-years distant science fiction concept, but rather a new tool for public archaeology and culture heritage. The presentation focused its use for on-site presentation of archaeological sites
Archeologické poznání otroctví
Cílem této práce je přispět k debatě o existenci otroctví v minulosti a představit možnosti jeho archeologického poznání. Základní aplikovanou metodou je mezikulturní výzkum neboli srovnávací analýza etnografických dat, pro niž byl vybrán vzorek 186 světových kultur, tzv. Standard Cross-Cultural Sample. V principu jde o hledání korelací mezi otroctvím a specifickou skupinou kulturních indikátorů. Výsledky ukázaly jednak vazbu otroctví na očekávan…
Presenting the invisible and unfathomable
The aim of the article is to demonstrate the possibility of presentation of prehistoric sites in locations where there is neither any preserved construction, nor any relic of the original landscape. Such sites usually meet with indifference both from the public and from institutions involved in preservation of historical monuments. This problem, however, does not relate only to the limited capacity to imagine features of which there is no visual …
How Were Neolithic Ditches Filled In? Deposition Study of Two Enclosures from Bohemia
The aim of this study is to analyse the correlation between finds and ditches, the duration of ditch fills, and the manner of the demise of Late Neolithic rondels (Kreisgrabenanlagen) in the Czech Republic. Two comparable long-term projects are discussed here: Kolín (central Bohemia) and Vchynice (north-west Bohemia). Qualitative, quantitative, and spatial analyses of the different categories of finds (pottery fragments, lithics, daub, and faunal…
Neolithic LBK Intrasite Settlement Patterns
This paper could also be a contribution to a new concept for understanding space and time in Neolithic settlements. We abandoned the methodological concept of construction complexes of houses and used individual archaeological features as the basic analytical unit. The analysis of quantitative correlations of decorative style conducted on this basis produced five style groups; four of these belonged to a LBK style, and it was these that were spat…
Micromorphological Evidence of Neolithic Rondel-like Ditch Infillings. Case Studies from Těšetice-Kyjovice and Kolín, Czech Republic
This case study discusses the formation processes which conceivably took place during the formation of the infilling of Neolithic rondel ditches. These processes were studied not only from a sedimentological point of view but primarily by means of a micromorphological approach which allowed us to distinguish the synsedimentary and postsedimentary processes more precisely and the formation of textural features macroscopically visible in the sectio…
The Spatial Analysis of Non-Ceramic Refuse from the Neolithic Site at Bylany, Czech Republic
This article aims to provide an interpretation of the structure and spatial patterning of the non-ceramic refuse from the Neolithic site of Bylany. The data are considered at three levels: tackling questions of refuse management and deposition in the vicinity of houses; the spatial distribution of refuse within the settlement area as a whole; and the quantity and structure of non-ceramic refuse from a long-term settlement perspective. The analyse…
