Selected settlement regions of La Tène Period in Bohemia and their potential relationship to the resources of gold
Smola, Adam ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Mangel, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis deals with a possible relationship between the late Iron Age settlement and gold deposits. Its first objective is to determine the probability rate in which of the three selected areas of Bohemia ( áslavsko, Jílovsko and P íbramsko) the gold mining could take place in La Tène period and where is an increased probability of obtaining direct evidence of this mining. The second objective is to create a model of gold mining and gold processing in La Tène period and to propose a framework for the future research that would confirm or deny such model. The thesis consists of three parts. The first part (chapters 1 - 4) contains general introduction to the topic of gold in La Tène period in Bohemia region, a summary of current knowledge about the possible gold mining and a comparison of possibilities and limits to deepen this knowledge. Emphasis is put on methods and procedures, including the application of very promising chemical-physical analysis. The second part of the thesis (chapter 5) focuses on detailed analysis of gold deposits and settlements in La Tène period in selected regions of áslavsko, Jílovsko and P íbramsko, where is the La Tène gold mining expected. In the subchapters on geology, primary and secondary gold deposits, including geochemical anomalies and historical mining relicts...

The occupation of Louny area in the La Tene period (evaluation and grounds for new research)
Grolmusová, Adéla ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Košnar, Lubomír (referee)
The thesis focuses on reviewing the excavations from Počedělice between the years 1988-1989, during which two settlement objects from the break of the La Tene period and the Early Roman period (LT D2b/ R A) were identified. Tangible and intangible finds were further analysed and evaluated, such as ground sunken homes, ceramic fragments, daubings, osteological package, a furnace and an iron object. The second part of the thesis focuses on structure of the settlements and the burials in the eastern part of Louny area. It also outlines the current state of research and the basis for the future research. The second part also presents a created catalogue of sites dated in the break of the La Tene period and the Early Roman period in the discussed region.

Late Hallstatt iron metalurgy; the example the the iron workshop at Tuchoměřice
Lett, Jaroslav ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Salač, Vladimír (referee)
This work is about metallurgy and blacksmithing in the period of late Hallstatt and early La Tène in Central Europe. The first part presents all known evidence of metallurgical and blacksmithing in the period under review. Examples are then presented by the most important Central European localities, where this activity has been clearly proved. In work is presented a set of blacksmith tools dated to the late Hallstatt from the hall of the Býčí skála cave, mining and smelting of iron ore from the same period in Čečejovice (SK), including a nearby smithy in the hall of the Fajka cave in Jasov (SK). This is followed by a small housing estate in Čakov with proven smelting of iron ores in the late Hallstatt based on the occurrence of metallurgical slag in the settlement waste layer without younger intrusions. Metallurgical activity on a larger scale with a period of greatest activity in the early La Tène and domed furnaces are presented on the example of the Neuenbürg (DE) site. Another presented locality is a settlement with proven metallurgical and blacksmithing activity with the peak of activity in the late Hallstatt with pit furnaces and pit charcoal kilns in Waschenberg (AT). This list is completed by a brief overview of findings related to metal processing in the Tuchoměřice area, as the research...

Research potential of copper deposits in the prehistory of Bohemia
Mladý, Tomáš ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Bursák, Daniel (referee)
(in English) The aim of this thesis is to present potential ways of studying regions with copper deposits in Bohemia that could indicate the possibility of prehistoric mining and smelting of copper in this area. This thesis describes methods of studying areas and artefacts in Bohemia and in the world. In a few regions which are selected from the database of copper occurrences according to J. Kratochvíl, the convenient methods for potential surveying and researching the area are presented afterwards. Apart from geographic location and history of regions, historical sources are used for distinguishing prehistoric and recent mining workings. Moreover, these sources help to determine the former extend of copper deposits.

Self-representation of the social elites in the La Tène period
Lorencová, Kateřina ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Bursák, Daniel (referee)
The diploma thesis focuses on socioeconomic models of society in the La Tène temperate Europe, created on the basis of archaeological manifestation of the social structures of that time and the expression of elites. The aim of the work is to explore the theoretical basis for the creation of social models and evaluate the relevance of individual theories in light of the current state of research on the Early Iron Age. Key words social organization; elites; luxurious items; Europe; La Tène culture

La Tene findings from hillfort Karlovice - Čertova ruka
Kotýnek, Michal ; Frank Danielisová, Alžběta (advisor) ; Mangel, Tomáš (referee)
(in English): The diploma thesis focuses on the elaboration of the middle and late La Tène period archaeological finds from the hillfort of Karlovice (Semily District), which is situated on the top plateau of Čertova ruka, surrounded by sandstone towers and rock blocks, giving it a unique spatial position. At the same time, the site is on the periphery of the current La Tène settlement area. The aim of the thesis is to provide the first comprehensive elaboration of finds from the current La Tène period from this site and to interpret this exceptional position on the functional context of the current settlement structure.
