Spatial analysis of a late antique site - example of Jandavlattepa
Machačíková, Tereza ; Stančo, Ladislav (advisor) ; Klír, Tomáš (referee)
This thesis aims to evaluate spatial distribution of the small finds from the late antique site in southern Uzbekistan (Sherabad district) - Jandavlattepa. Using archaeological methods as spatial analysis, it aspires to help determine functions of the constructions and buildings on this site. In the theoretical part, it presents history and developement of the spatial analysis as scientific field and describes basical principals of some of its methods. In the practical part, it deals the site itself and tries to analyse its situation by aforementioned methods (especially visual analysis - for this purpose complex plans with distribution of small finds in the excavated sectors 7 and 20 was drawn). It concludes that because of the complicated archeological contexts at the site, it is not possible to establish precise function of discovered rooms. However it proposes some interpretations of results of this analysis.

Floristic survey of the surroundings of the abandoned village Malonin (Prachatice region)
Kadlec, Jakub ; Karlík, Petr (advisor) ; Ulbrichová, Iva (referee)
Abandoned villages and belonging landscape structures are significant due to high biodiversity. The former village Malonín in the Prachatice region is an example of medieval settlement with well-preserved landscape structures, therefore multidisciplinary research is focused on understanding the origin and development of its specific long-strip field patterns. As a part of this research, floristic survey was being carried out during the period 11. 4. 2015 to 14. 9. 2015 in the 5,25 km2 defined study area. The survey was aimed at plant indicator species, vulnerable and endangered species or rarities concerning the
phytogeographical aspect. Within 7 visits, 70 findings of 18 plant species were recorded. Every finding was mapped using the ArcGIS software and described including ecological
requirements, former land-use categories and forest typology. As well, the findings were interpreted if possible. Additionally, distance between each finding and the abandoned village, the nearest existing village and the nearest stream was measured and the results were displayed using box plots. Relation between these distances and Ellenberg indicator values was tested statistically. Certain species indicate former settlement (Vinca minor,
Syringa vulgaris), some species take the advantage of specific man-made biotopes e.g. Corydalis cava. The majority of recorded species is listed in the Red List of vascular plants of the Czech Republic. The results confirm the uniqueness of abandoned settlements and the worthiness of studying and preserving its heritage.
