Radiocarbon dates and pottery typology from the hilltop settlement of Hlinsko are discussed with respect to the chronology of the Boleráz Group in Moravia. Additionally the results are compared to new Dates from Jevisovice and Brno-Líšeň as well as to the total corpus of Radiocarbon dates connected to Boleraz-fi nds in other regions. The Moravian dates show that the Boleráz Pottery in that region is not used until after 3520 BC, whereas there are older dates in Lower Austria and Hungary, starting about 3650 BC. The end of the Boleráz pottery style in Moravia is harder to detect. The 14C dates from Hlinsko, but also one additional date in Wojnowice in Upper Silesia point towards the presence of a “Post-Boléraz-Group, where Boleráz-, Funnel Beaker and some scant Classical Baden elements are mixed in a local pottery style, contemporary to the different Classical Baden Groups in neighbouring regions. Thus, in the western part of Moravia, the chronological sequence is Boleráz (3520–3350 BC), Post-Boleráz (3350–3100 BC), Jevisovice B (3100–2800 BC). Regarding the pottery typology and Radiocarbon Dating of Hlinsko, the pit inventories discussed do not display a Proto-Boleráz and a subsequent Boleráz Phase, as traditionally labelled, but rather a continuum showing a mixture of Funnel Beaker Pottery with Boleráz Elements to Funnel Beaker with Boleráz and scant Classical Baden infl uences (the latter equalling “Post-Boleráz”), clearly different from the typical Boleráz or Classical Baden Inventories known further south., Martin Furholt., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
As an example of the activities of the Austrian secret police under Emperor Francis II (I), we consider the surveillance of Louis Bonaparte (1778-1846), king of Holland, when he was in exile in Teplice. The Austrian secret police used several "tools" in the surveillance of persons who were or had aroused suspicion of being criminals or enemies of the state. The ministry of foreign affairs (Hof- und Staatskanzlei), the ministry of the interior (Oberste Polizeihofstelle) and the government of the states (Länder) worked together. The police paid "confidential people" (Vertraute) to observe the habits, activities and friends of the above categories of person. This work was done at the best-known spas by inspection commissioners who tended the patients and collected information. At the mail service letters from suspicious persons were secretly opened and copies were made. It is shown that these methods provided a fairly good picture of the person under surveillance, in our case the king of Holland., Friedrich Wilhelm Schembor., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
The paper deals with the topic of additional Germanic settlement activity on „Burgstall“ hill near Mušov-Pasohlávky in Moravia from the stratigraphical and chronological point of view. Germanic settlement features which have been discovered on this location, previously, at the time of Marcomannic wars, the key and most important military site north to the Carnuntum, have disturbed the preceding Roman structures and clearly date to a later period than the Roman army occupation. The impressive picture comes also from the adjacent location of Neurissen. It is not without significance that the chronologically conclusive items from these subsequent barbarian settlement contexts are clearly comparable with the archaeological record typical in general for the distinctive horizon of sunken floor huts and pits detected within Germanie built up areas in a number of places in different areas of Moravia and Slovakia. The dating of the horizon in question can be placed within the timespan from the late 2nd century AD since the mid of the next century and its end concures in the time with the turbulent period of increasing migration movements of barbarian populations beyond the Roman frontier and with the fall of Roman Raetian- Upper Germanic limes., Jaroslav Tejral., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The settlement region in the Opava River basin (Upper Silesia) belonged to the southern periphery of the Przeworsk culture. Settlement activity culminated here during the late and final phase of the Roman Period. Numerous settlements situated on terraces of the river Opava were characterised by local production of wheel-thrown pottery. Despite the somewhat problematic dating of these sites, at least some of them may have belonged to the final phase (C3/D). Besides the above-mentioned region, which was relatively well investigated by archaeologists, settlements of the Przeworsk culture have also penetrated to the less known region of Osoblaha and Vidnava, i.e. as far as to the foothills of the Jeseníky Mts. Two localities, which are supposed to be hilltop settlements dating probably from the end of the Roman Period to the beginning of the Migration Period, were discovered in this hilly landscape. In this context we neither can omit the finds of so-called equestrian nomadic and Hunnic character, which testify that the southern part of the territory of the Przeworsk culture has got under the influence of the Hunnic Empire., Zuzana Loskotová., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
