Mokřinka and Komorsko. A comparison of the results of interdisciplinary research on remains of charcoal-making in the Křivoklát region and in the Brdy mountains.
Later than in the wet of Europe, it was only in the course of the 12th century that the water wheel caught on in Bohemia and Moravia. At the same time hand-powered mills were still requently being used. Until the end of the 12th century most water mills as well as water courses were the property of princes, so permission to run an existing mil or to build a new one had to be granted. The location, design of and technology used in mediaeval mills in our vicinity have not been archaeologically researched. The hypotheritcal appearance of such mills and what equipment they had can be modelled based on the results of research abroad, since similar structures might also have been in use in mediaeval Bohemia and Moravia., Lucie Galusová, Martina Maříková., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
Close to Kuřim, in the „Záhoří do klínů“ fi eld, a large settlement of the Linear Pottery culture was excavated, revealing several pits with Moravian Painted Pottery culture (MPP). This article focuses on one of these features (number 168), the only one to contain a large number of ceramic items. Analysis of the material shows that the pottery shares many common features with pottery from phase Ib MPP; however, there are also some differences, for example the specifi c shapes of knobs and the absence of incised decoration. It is probable that the Kuřim site is one of a small number of known sites dated to the fi nal phase of the old stage of the Culture with Moravian Painted Pottery (phase Ic)., Eliška Kazdová., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The article summarizes the current state of knowledge of bridges and river channels in the 9th century Mikulčice. It defines the basic themes of a new project, which is expected to synthesize unique large-scale excavations of filled -up river channels in Mikulčice. The excavations took place between 1966 and 1984 and yielded wooden structures and artefacts — uncommon for this region. The main focus of this article is the structural features and dating of three archaeologically documented wooden bridges. Two of the structural designs are specific to the local water features. Bridge designs include classical river structures used by Celts and Romans, as well as a design similar to lake bridges known from regions settled by north-western Slays. The most well preserved bridge (No. 1) allows dendrochronolo gical dating and detailed reconstruction. Many questions remain unanswered regarding bridges, archaeological and palaeoecological reconstructions offilled-up oxbows., Lumír Poláček., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
