What level of complexity can we consider when reflecting on the Early Bronze Age? The first step in attempting to define this question could be the creation of a theoretical model based on the spatial data obtained so far about the two cultural groups that existed in this period and region. The model includes data from over 1,000 settlements, cemeteries, and hoards of the Únětice culture and the Věteřov group. All these pieces of evidence of earlier settlement are an essential part of the input data, and through them, we will explore possible arrangements within both macro and micro regions. Each find situation is assigned a weight according to predefined criteria. For the analysis, data available from archives, excavation reports, and scholarly publications are used. The outputs are processed in a GIS environment in the form of map outputs and compared with already published findings. The results of the study is a series of maps, working with assumed population densities. Based on it, we can test follow- up hypotheses using other types of archaeological data
