Pražský Archeologický ústav AV ČR uskutečnil v listopadu a prosinci 2014 záchranný archeologický výzkum v areálu developerského projektu Letňanské zahrady. Vedle osmi hrobů kultury se šňůrovou keramikou z pozdní doby kamenné (2800-2500 př. n. l.) byly objeveny dva komorové hroby kultury bylanské ze starší doby železné (halštatské) z 8.-6. stol. př. n. l. and Drahomíra Frolíková.

The site of Mohelno-Plevovce is situated below the water line of the Mohelno water reservoir (lower part of the Dalešice pumped-storage hydroelectric power plant). The site was repeatedly occupied during the Late Upper Paleolithic. We discovered three areas with in-situ artifacts within intact sediments. While two assemblages excavated so far in Artifact Cluster 3 are characterized by microlithic tools made on carenoidal blanks and utilization of local rocks, both assemblages in Artifact Clusters 1 and 2 differ significantly from Artifact Cluster 3 and represent different techno-complexes. Artifact Clusters 1 and 2 are characterized by prevailing erratic flint supplemented by several artifacts made on radiolarite and obsidian. Technology is characterized by long, narrow and straight blades and bladelets removed from bidirectional cores. The collection of tools is characterized by prevailing backed microblades, in several cases with a straight truncation. In one case the truncations form a rectangle. This techno-complex continuing the Gravettian technological tradition is similar to material from Brno-Štýřice that is currently dated to the large time span covering two millennia between 17 100 and 19 100 calBP., Petr Škrdla, Jaroslav Bartík, Jan Eigner, Tereza Rychtaříková., and Obsahuje seznam literatury

These legends show the Mongolian reception of history and human being in the flow of time. The popular religion has been transforming the Buddhist history as to express the basic Buddhist concept of actions and their results.

Syria changed from a seemingly stable and slowly modernising country to the site of a regional conflict in a matter of months. The factors of escalation are to be sought in three interrelated aspects: in the power structures of the Asad regime, that choose to deal with the reverberations of the Arab Spring through intensified security alone; in the transformation of social protest into a sectarian conflict; in the unconditional support that all sides receive from abroad. As a result, Syria ceased to be what it was three years ago: a country, a state, and a society., Zora Hesová., and Obsahuje bibliografii
