According to A. Přichystal’s classifi cation (cf. 2010), siliceous weathering products are classifi ed into the SiO2 minerals group. This study presents results of the analysis of collections gathered together in southern and south-western Moravia, and contributes to their more precise petrographic and cultural classifi cation. The authors introduce a new type of local siliceous weathering products as the Malhostovice type. It is a preliminary term defi ned similarly as the Ctidružice type, Lesůňky type, etc., Martin Kuča, Jaroslav Bartík., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The territory of Moravia is well known for its high density of Early Upper Paleolithic sites. However, the majority of sites are surface sites lacking chrono-stratigraphic data. To further our understanding of the technological development, and replacement of Neanderthals by Anatomically Modern Humans between 50-40 kya, necessitates the discovery of new stratified sites. We implemented a project aimed at discovering new EUP sites with intact sediments. Central part the Bobrava Highland is an important EUP microregion and is located on the southwestern margin of the Brno Basin. We relocated almost all previously published sites in the area and conducted surface surveys in an attempt to discover additional surface sites. At each site we recorded the artifact clusters in absolute coordinates, and searched for potential artifacts in the intact sediments, often along the edges of surface artifact clusters. We have located intact sediments at four sites previously recorded as surface sites. We found in situ artifacts at two of the sites. The developed and successfully tested survey strategy may have potential application for surveys in other microregions., Petr Škrdla ... [et al.]., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
