Mladopaleolitické osídlení před Krápníkovou jeskyní u Hostimi poblíž Berouna (střední Čechy, Česká republika)
The Krápníková Cave (in the Hostim u Berouna cadastral area) is located high above the Berounka Valley in the Bohemian Karst. On a small plateau in front of its narrow entrance, the remains of an Upper Palaeolithic settlement were excavated in the 1940s. In the loess layer above the bedrock, the previously published remains of a hearth were uncovered, alongside less certain traces of other sunken features. The article presents an analysis of the …
Engraved Limestone Block from Švédův stůl Cave, Czech Republic
Ground obsidian artefacts from an Early Eneolithic site in Nitra-Selenec (Slovakia)
Obsidian was an important lithic raw material in the prehistory of the Western Carpathians. Whereas the use of knapped obsidian in this region is well known, the production of polished artefacts remains undocumented. Two obsidian finds were unearthed in 2009–2010 during the excavation of an Early Eneolithic (4300–4000 BP) site in Nitra-Selenec. Grinding was combined with pressure knapping, and the purpose and position of grinding in the operation…
Modlniczka – the first cemetery of the Linear Pottery Culture in Poland in light of interdisciplinary analyses
The discovery of the first LBK cemetery, and a cremation one at that, is an exceptional fact not only for Poland, but also for the entire eastern edge of this culture. This discovery has significantly enriched our knowledge of the LBK burial rites, as until recently only individual graves and small burial complexes within or on the outskirts of settlements were known from the area of Poland. Therefore, it was particularly important to conduct a w…
A unique stone mould for casting a spearhead from Morkůvky in South Moravia as an example of long-distance import in the Urnfield Period, and its technological contribution
The paper provides a comprehensive analysis of a well-preserved half of a stone mould, accidentally found in the village of Morkůvky (Břeclav District). Although it is a stray find, it is characterised by above-standard informative value from the point of view of both typology and technology, as well as in terms of raw material provenance. According to macroscopic traces and XRF–XRD analyses, bronze was poured into vertically erected halves of th…
Multidisciplinary Analysis of the Engraved Pebble From the Magdalenian Horizon of the Open-Air Site Hošťálkovice II – Hladový vrch (Czech Republic)
Re-excavation of Discarded Deposits from Švédův stůl Cave (Moravian Karst, Czech Republic) and their Archaeological Potential
Many caves worldwide, including those with significant archaeological deposits, have attracted excavators since the end of the 19th c. This has often resulted in caves being partially, or entirely, emptied of sediments. The ‘coarse’ methodology used during earlier excavations has resulted in many finds being missed, which usually resulted in their discard onto nearby spoil heaps along with the sediments. Švédův stůl Cave, in the southern part of …
The Oldest Hammer-Axes of the Corded Ware Culture in Bohemia
The aim of this study is to analyse hammer-axes assigned to the so-called A-horizon of the Corded Ware Culture (c. 3000–2350 BC). The focus area is Bohemia. The main emphasis is placed on the raw materials of these artefacts, which were analysed non-destructively using optical stereomicroscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Although archaeogenetic analyses indicate that the Corded Ware Culture arrived in Bohemia as a…
The Provenance of Basaltoid Polished Stone Tools of the Corded Ware Culture in Moravia (Czech Republic)
Basaltoid rocks are widespread in central Europe and in the Corded Ware Culture (CWC) in Moravia they were a sought-after raw material for the production of polished stone tools, along with serpentinites, amphibolites and metabasites. An important precondition for the study of the provenance of CWC basaltoid artefacts was the use of non-destructive methods. Therefore, portable XRF (pXRF) and magnetic susceptibility (MS) measurements were used. Bo…
Provenance analysis of rock crystal artefacts from Palaeolithic sites in Moravia (East Central Europe) – a comparative extended approach
The Bohemian Massif and the Alps are regions that are generally known for their rock crystal artefacts and the study thereof. The most important archaeological findspots in the Czech Republic are the Palaeolithic sites at Nová Dědina (East Moravia) and in Žitný Cave (Moravian Karst), which yielded numerous rock crystal artefacts. The study of fluid inclusions as sensitive objects reflecting the conditions of their formation was included in the re…
Tracing the transfers of raw materials in the Gravettian of Moravia and Silesia
Re-excavation of cultural deposits at Švédův stůl cave in the Moravian Karst, Czech Republic
On foot, by boat
Thanks to long-term efforts to identify the stone raw materials of Neolithic lithics, a dataset of the proportional raw material composition at Neolithic settlements for the eastern part of Bohemia and the Morava River Basin in Central Europe has been created, which can be analysed in the period c. 4900-3400 BCE The focus of this study is on four issues: (1) the chronological evolution of the mode of distribution of the raw materials of lithics a…
Raw materials for Neolithic ground tools from the extraction fields at Bílý Kámen Hill, Central Bohemia
The assemblage of ground tools and their fragments from the site of Bílý Kámen Hill near the town of Sázava (Czech Republic, Central Bohemia) is one of the largest chronologically uniform collections in Central Europe. Based on the dominant representation of bored axe-hammers, we date it to the late phase of the Stroked Pottery culture (SBK; 5100/5000–4500/4400 cal BC). Their connection to the extraction of local marble and the production of pres…
Metabasite Artefacts from the Neolithic Settlement at Brno-Holásky/Tuřany Compared to the Potential Source Rocks within the Želešice Metabasite Body Based on Petrography and Mineralogy
The Želešice metabasite body served as a significant area for the exploitation of raw material for the production of polished stone tools in the Neolithic. This study is based on petrographical and mineralogical comparisons of the artefacts from the Želešice-type metabasite collected in the Neolithic settlement (and workshop) at Brno-Holásky/Tuřany with the various rock types occurring around the Želešice metabasite body. The determination of the…
Prehistoric quarrying in the Jizerské hory mountains
In the 20 years since the important discovery of metabasite quarrying in the Jizerské hory Mountains (northern Bohemia, Czech Republic) a wealth of knowledge has been gathered on this raw material used to make Neolithic polished stone tools. A synthesis of these results now gives a more comprehensive view of how this raw material was employed in different periods and extracted directly at the source sites. The overview is at the same time a sprin…
Petroarchaeological investigation of three nephrite axes from Moravia and Czech Silesia
In 1989, 2002 and 2021, three axes were found in Moravia and Czech Silesia, which share a similar appearance and typology. Two of these axes (Bolatice near Opava, Hlinsko near Lipník nad Bečvou) can be dated to the Early Eneolithic (Funnel Beaker Culture), while the third (Archlebov near Ždánice) was a surface find in an area with pottery fragments corresponding to the Moravian Painted Ware Culture. The raw material used in the axes is almost mac…
Senorady/Mohelno – „Boleniska“
The landscapes of the Mohelno settlement microregion are mostly gently undulating, but also dissected by two deeply incised river valleys – the Oslava River valley in the north and the Jihlava River valley in the south. The western boundary is formed by Zelený kopec (491 m above sea level, while the eastern boundary is marked by Biskoupský kopec (397.3 m above sea level) and Vodanský kopec (397.5 m above sea level). This microregion was settled a…

Archaeological Excavation of a Mesolithic Settlement Městec/Ostrov in Eastern Bohemia (Czech Republic)
A 15,000-year history of Early Upper Paleolithic hunters moving through the Pustý Žleb valley – Artefacts and chronology of Pod Hradem Cave, Moravian Karst, Czech Republic
Archaeological evidence shows that Paleolithic hunters occasionally used the difficult-to-access Pod Hradem Cave for short-term visits. The small collection of artefacts spanning a c. 15,000-year period were made from a range of different raw materials collected from known sources in the surrounding regions up to 120 km away. In this paper, we interpret the sum of the archaeological evidence associated with artefacts from Pod Hradem Cave against …
Proto-Eneolithic settlement feature for leather processing
The state of knowledge of the Epi-Lengyel settlement of South Moravia is still limited to a few isolated pub lished sites, with a predominant focus on the typological evaluation of pottery. Collections of lithics remain unevaluated or are treated mainly typologically. The inventory of the settlement feature from Lidická Street, Drnholec, Břeclav district, comprising, among other things, 45 lithic pieces, has made it possible to apply modern metho…
Silicite („flint”) from Opole-Groszowice
Until recently it was thought that all the erratic flints found at the Stone Age sites in the upper part of the Odra Valley were considered as silicites from the Baltic Sea. Their age of Baltic flints is associated with the Cretaceous, more precisely with the Maastrichtian or Palaeogene. However, it turns out that among these rocks, there are also silicites that are of different age and origin. They were first found in outcrops of sands and grave…
New Perspective on Neolithic Rectangular Features Using Artefact Analysis, Soil Micromorphology and Ethnohistorical Analogies. A Case study from Střelice u Brna, South Moravia, Czech Republic
The function of sunken rectangular features in the Late Neolithic has been a subject of interest in Central Europe for many years. This type of pit is not found very often. One of the latest examples is a square Lengyel feature in the village of Střelice near Brno. A study of the microstratigraphy of the fill has made it possible to qualitatively move the debate to a new level. The qualitative assessment of bone micro-fragments is also innovative…

Last Glacial Maximum landscape and Epigravettian horse hunting strategy in Central Europe
With the end of MIS3, the unity of larger Gravettian settlements based predominantly on mammoth exploitation split into a mosaic of smaller Epigravettian sites with specific behaviors and economies. Based on C14 chronology, the site of Stránská skála IV (together with Grubgraben, Ságvár and Kašov), correlates with a brief warm period after the Last Glacial Maximum around 22 ka calBP. We detected two main accumulations of predominantly horse bones…

Artefacts Made from Siliceous Rocks of Polish Origin on Prehistoric Sites in the Czech Republic
Compared with Poland, the territory of Bohemia and Moravia is not so rich in natural occurrences of high-quality siliceous rocks (silicites, ‘flints’). This contribution follows distribution of the four most attractive Polish chipped raw materials (silicite of the Cracow-Częstochowa Jurassic, ‘chocolate’ silicite, banded Krzemionki [striped] silicite and spotted Świeciechów [grey white-spotted] silicite) in the Czech Republic. Since the middle ph…
Mining and processing of the Stránská skála-type chert during the Late Neolithic and Early Eneolithic periods
Stránská skála represents an important geological and archaeological site. It is also known for its rich deposits of Jurassic cherts that were utilized in various ways during different stages of Moravian prehistory. The substantial Early Upper Paleolithic occupation events are of great significance and have been subject to several international research projects. Archaeological excavations targeting mining and workshop areas were resumed in the l…
Hrob s kamennou konstrukcí ze střední doby bronzové z Mikulova - A grave with a stone construction from the Middle Bronze Age from Mikulov, south Moravia
A grave dated to the Middle Bronze Age with two burials in stone chambers represents a unique find in Moravia. The grave was the solitary feature from the given period at the excavation site, without any barrow identified. Part of the stone used for the construction is querns from a 40 km distant source, most of the structure is made of local limestone. Both burials – a child and an adult – were deposited simultaneously and furnished with persona…
Nový výzkum pravěkých těžebních polí na Bílém kameniu Sázavy, okr. BenešovNew excavation of the prehistoric mining fields at Bílý kámennear Sázava, Central Bohemia
The article presents a current view of the issue of the Neolithic mining site of Bílý kámen near Sázava (Czech Republic, Benešov district). The results are based both on an analysis of earlier finds and on the finds from a new archaeological excavation. The findings show that the traditional idea of one of the most important monuments of prehistoric mining activities of non-silicate rock in Central Europe will need to be substantially revised. Th…
