Description:
When research of the Roman ditch in the Neurissen tract in Mušov (Moravia, The Czech Republic) took place, only entirely isolated artifacts were found in areas situated next to the heights of the perimeter of the Burgstall hill. Animal bones, consisting in several cases of articulated parts of skeletons, had a special role (ditches Mušov-Neurissen II and Mušuv-Neurissen IV where the human skeletons were also found.) Interpretation of the finds in this position is impossible without reference to other sites. Therefore we present several comparative examples of analogical finding situations in places where the Roman army presence was proven (Ruhhof, Hulín-Pravčice, Pilismarót-Szobi rév, Stillfried, Newstead, Brno-Vojtova street). Attention is also given to other places with significant strength of evidence (Regensburg-Harting, Kaiseraugst, Bratislava-Rusovce, Kalkriese).

2. Materská škola ako miesto profánnych a magicko-náboženských prechodových rituálov

Subject:
rituals of transition, pre-liminal stage, liminal stage, post-liminal stage, profane and sacral component, nursery school, and Montessori-preschool
Language:
Czech
Description:
The author analyses the organization of selected nursery schools and their interactive patterns with the assistance of ethnological concept of rituals of transition. Two types of nursery schools were chosen for this purpose - the alternative model of initial schooling represented by approach of Maria Montessori and the common public nursery school. The author describes the Montessori-preschool as a place of sacral ritual practices which correspond to transitional schema of A. van Gennep and V. Turner. The common public nursery school can be also understood as organization based on rituals of transition, but its rituals are symbolically reduced and meet more profane purposes. These propositions are demonstrated with the assistance of conceptual and field data (resulting from school ethnography). The significant symbolic divergence of transitional schéma in both organizations is in contrast to similar formative effects on children. The common implicit aim of these schemas seems to be the effective conformization of behavior, which Montessori calls “joyful obedience”.
