The Identification and the Origin of the Gemstones Adorning the Insignia of the Charles University in Prague , the Faculty of Science

Through a mediation of the Ministry of Education and National Enlightment the design of the new sceptre was ordered from the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design and it was elaborated by prof. Jaroslav Horejc. However, in January 1923, his design was rejected, because it didn't meet the requirements of the professors' conservative approach. When prof. Horejc refused to make a modified copy of the sceptre of the Faculty of Arts, the professors addressed Tengler, the goldsmith who had made the sceptres of other faculties and of the rector in previous years. Alois Tengler was willing to make a modified copy of the sceptre of Faculty of Arts, but he also proposed a new design (with estimated price of 20 000 K), which the professors found more suitable and subsequently this design was adopted. Tengler committed himself to manufacture the sceptre by the 15th November 1924 and to incorporate any additional design...

The Prehistoric glass in the South Bohemia
FERENCZOVÁ, Barbora
In this thesis, I will concentrate on the finds of the prehistoric glass in the South Bohemia and I will try to analyze them. Primarily I will focus on the type of glass, their context, dating, color and decoration and then at the end I will compare these data. The main purpose of this thesis is to create the current list of the prehistoric glass in the South Bohemia region. Thanks to nondestructive chemical analysis (XRF) I will try to determinate the non-prehistoric glass and the set from the South Bohemia will be compared to other sets from the Czech Republic.
