Abstract Late Neolithic long barrows are commonly found throughout Central and Northwestern Europe, within the Funnel Beaker Culture territory. The sites of this known from Bohemia covering a period between 3900 3400 BC. However, have not been detected in for time. main reason is that they located areas where were affected by modern ploughing. A significant contribution to their recognition was remote sensing fields, especially aerial archaeology. Current research provided new evidence...

A combination of geophysical methods could be very a useful and practical way verifying the origin precise localisation archaeological situations identified by different remote sensing techniques. The results (and scales) monitoring these fully non-destructive provide distinct data often complement each other. presented examples combinations methods/techniques in this study (aerial survey, LIDAR-ALS surface magnetometer or resistivity survey) information on some specifics may also...

Abstract The reconstruction of the settlement´s hinterland and acquisition plant resources is one crucial questions in field environmental archaeology. Our study focused on settlement’s structure character environment from which site drew resources. These research were addressed by interpretation macroremains, charcoals, results spatial model. We have maximum size settlement that surrounding countryside was able to withstand. clearly demonstrated significant deforestation intensive land use...

Abstract Hillforts are fortified archaeological sites built from the Neolithic to Early Middle Ages within area of Europe. They were usually surrounded by fortifications consisting various combinations ramparts and ditches, which today constitute their most striking remains. Although magnetometry surveys commonly used for spatial identification a different method must be employed directly obtaining depth information. Hence, we evaluate potential electrical resistivity tomography (ERT)...

Abstract Geophysical prospection at the site of a Neolithic rondel near Bylany has been carried out in three different stages archaeological study area.

The archaeological site of Březnice (Czechia) represents one the large settlements Late Bronze Age (Ha A2/B1, 14C: 1124-976 BC) in Bohemia. became known mainly for a high number so-called 'trenches', oblong pit features (breadth around 1 m, length 4-7 m), remarkable not only their specific shape but also contents (unusual amounts pottery, daub, loom weights and other finds, often with traces strong fire).

The results of detailed and large-scale geophysical measurements in archaeology have been steadily increasing for years. growth measured data has also increased the need processing interpretation; archaeology, this primarily means archaeological interpretation data. However, information contained includes a substantial volume or area varying size thickness some different natural modern anthropogenic origin (beyond interest). Like situations themselves, these must be identified demarcated....

 The Czech landscape and its archaeological resources include the most varied types of prehistoric or early medieval hillforts. These fortified sites are found across a variety different locations possess functions dimensions (very often units hectares, unlike later strongholds, characterized by tenths hectares areas). Due to this large area, hillforts were verified using mainly small-scale investigations. Many other also known exist...

Za jistá hradiště lze označit pouze lokality s moderně prozkoumaným jistě datovaným opevněním. Jsou jimi Kostelec, Vrcovice, Skočice Všemyslice – Kozí vrch. Dále je regionu známo ještě dalších 22 potencionálních hradišť. Rozborem archeologických nálezů získaných radiokarbonových dat byly...
