The chronology of Late Neolithic features and an assemblage of animal skeletal remains from a settlement area with a rondel in Vchynice (northwestern Bohemia).
Linear Band Pottery (LBK), Stroked Pottery (SPC), Moravian Painted Ware (MPWC) cultures developed in Moravia during the Neolithic period. Based on the currently available radiocarbon dates, this period lasted for 1800 years. The LBK lasted for 550 years and the MPWC for 1150 years. There is a 100 year hiatus between these cultures, when Moravia was inhabited by people practicing the SPC. With increasing knowledge and more radiocarbon dates, it has become apparent that the current ideas about the development of the Neolithic need revision due to discrepancies between the traditional scheme and new empirical data. Chronology building on the basis of the 14C method is currently the most accurate dating technique for this period., Martin Kuča, Josef Jan Kovář, Miriam Nývltová Fišáková, Petr Škrdla, Lubomír Prokeš, Miroslav Vaškových, Zdeněk Schenk., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
La fin rapide de la Céramique Linéaire est décrite en Europe centrale, Hongrie comprise. Une attention particulière est consacrée à la corrélation entre les diverses analyses factorielles de décors céramiques, pour établir une chronologie inaccessible à la datation 14C. Contrairement à l’usage, cette chronologie est également fondée sur l’évolution de la forme de bottier haute et sur les sériations des mobiliers et rites funéraires. Cette crise finale de la Céramique Linéaire, connue par les charniers d’habitat et qui dure à peine plus d’un siècle, a en effet laissé, dans les cimetières, de multiples marques tant matérielles que sociales. Elle est à l’origine de la cohabitation et de l’affrontement des mondes ancien et nouveau et elle déclenche la colonisation de nouvelles terres. Deux siècles avant cette crise, un scénario identique a pu se dérouler à la fin de la Céramique Linéaire I. Les causes de ces événements ne sont pas encore connues. and The rapid end of the Linear Pottery culture is described in central Europe, including Hungary. Particular attention is given to the correlation of various factor analyses of pottery decoration, to establish a chronology unobtainable through 14C dating. Contrary to the usual custom, this chronology is also based on the evolution high shoe–last adze shapes as well as seriations of grave–goods and burial rites. This final Linear Pottery culture crisis, which lasts little over a century and is reflected by mass–graves in settlements, is in fact visible in both material and social evidence from cemeteries. Cohabitation and confrontation of the old and new worlds originate in this crisis, which sets off the colonisation of new land. Two centuries earlier, an identical scenario may have taken place at the end of Linear Pottery I. The causes of these events remain unknown.
This article presents the extraordinary discoveries of ceramic vessel deposits in wells of the Funnel Beaker culture (FBC). Such a custom is observed in all groups of this community but is of particular importance in the Eastern group of the FBC. In central Poland (Kuyavia) specifically, there are many objects of this type compared to older materials of the Linear Pottery culture. The analysis of the local contexts of these finds allows for the hypothesis that the two communities are closely related to be proposed. and Článek pojednává o mimořádných nálezech keramických nádob ve studnách z období kultury nálevkovitých pohárů (KNP). Zvyk ukládání nádob do studní se vyskytuje u všech skupin této kultury, ale zvláště významný je u východní skupiny KNP. Zejména početné nálezy ze středního Polska (Kujavy) dovolují srovnání s podobnými nálezy z doby kultury s lineární keramikou. Analýza lokálních souvislostí těchto nálezů umožňuje navrhnout hypotézu o příbuznosti obou komunit.
