Název: Everyday life of the medieval farmstead. Evidence of the material culture in Central Europe. Master 's thesis deals with a summary of knowledge about material culture of deserted high- and late-medieval villages in the Czech Republic and assessing their interpretive possibilities for understanding the everyday life of the medieval farmstead. Attention is focused on the metallic component of the material culture. Basis of the thesis consists of the summary and critical evaluation of archaeological objects discovered during researches of deserted medieval villages, especially since the second half of the 20th century until today (Pfaffenschlag, Konůvky, Bystřec, Mstěnice, Svídna, Potálov, Kravín and Spindelbach). Part of the work is an analysis of finding and spatial context at the discussed archaeological sites. The findings are in the end compared with the selected foreign deserted medieval village (Hard in Lower Austria). This thesis evaluates how a study of the material culture contributes to economic issues and the socio-economic structures of a medieval village. Keywords deserted medieval village - farmstead - everyday life - material culture - metal artifacts - middle ages - Bohemia and Moravia - Austria

Anotation This work refers to metal items discovered in detector exploration carried out in 2009 at several homesteads in deserted medieval village Spindelbach in Ore Mountains in Northwest Bohemia. This site is the object of research of the Institute of Prehistory and Early History at Chareles University of Prague, Faculty of Philosophy with cooperation with Institute of Archaelogy and Preservation of Historical Monuments in Most. Detector exploration was the one phase of research in the site and wider neighborhood. Typical research of metal items is the basis of this work. Plans, lists of gained elements, tables and illustrations are included in the text part. Information about material culture, life of villagers or whole village are reconstructed at the base of the founded metal items. Because of ongoing excavations, this work is one of the partial goals and its continuous update is necessary. For more accurate image, it is essential to overwork other parts of material culture except for metallic element, especially ceramic fragments in following seasons of archeological research.
