Dendrochronology of representative autochtonnous tree species on environmental and temporal gradients
ČEJKOVÁ, Alžběta
This thesis is focused on application methods of dendrochronology on various ecological and historical aspects of forest communities, human management practices, and historical utilization of wood. Studies revealed growth responses of trees in various type of forest vegetation represented by spruce forest, alder carr and alluvial forests and involved autochthonous tree species with all morphological types of wood. These works demonstrated necessity of dynamic evolving of the regional chronologies for the Czech Republic.

The beginning of the castle Český Krumlov - the castle as a symbol of power and aspect of cultural transfer
GERSDORFOVÁ, Zlata
This work deals with beginning of the castle Český Krumlov. It takes South Bohemia area as the area of cultural influences, which overlaped itself (Bavaria, Bohemia, Austria) and simultaneously as a scene of colonizational proceses. They were discharged namely by Vítek's genus. In this place, we have to remember a network of Vítek's family bindings which had an influence to cultural transfer, which bounced at level of power means ? we can talk about constitution and presentation of Vítek's genus and his clannish background, it means a genesis of settlemental town and castle. The castle was taken as a symbol of power, but also as an intersection of potential interdisciplinary approach, which uses limited possibilities of historical and archeological research and simultaneously uses new interpretative and datative possibilities. The aim of this work is an attempt to classify the castle Český Krumlov to the absolute chronology and to bring a contribution to discussion about its ancient history.

Timber Roofs in the Southern Part of Bohemian-Moravian Uplands
Bláha, Jiří ; Kyncl, T.
The vast majority of historic roofs in the region belong to the common rafter and collar typological group. The large diversity and variability of technical solutions, especially noticeable in the lengthwise frame construction allows us to trace the evolution of traditional carpentry as well as to map its local differences. The Bohemian-Moravian Uplands region is one of the relatively homogenous areas, where the timber transport distance from the place of felling the trees to the site was very short. There are no large rivers, and the altitude is 500-840 meters (about 1500-2500 ft.)above sea level.
