Topographic model of the archeological site Stradonice based on UAV LiDAR point cloud
Prýmek, Jan ; Potůčková, Markéta (advisor) ; Hodač, Jindřich (referee)
The bachelor thesis is focused on the creation of a topographic model of the burial mound near Stradonice. The aim of the work was to filter LiDAR point clouds acquired from an UAV and aircraft platforms over the forested terrain of the area of interest, to analyze them in terms of point density corresponding to the relief and vegetation, to compare visual and automated detection of archaeological objects and to verify the results by field survey. The theoretical part describes the principle of laser scanning, its use in archaeology and the application of automated detection approaches to archaeological objects. Furthermore, the development of barrow burials from the Eneolithic to the Middle Ages is outlined and the area of interest is described in detail. The mound burial site at Stradonice is divided into two parts located not far from each other, which are probably not very closely related. In one part there are both rectangular barrows placed in rows and circular ones which occur irregularly around them as if they were of a different age. In the other part, there are only mounds with a circular plan, and some of them are arranged regularly. In the practical part, three sets of point clouds were processed, two of their own from UAVs and one from an aircraft provided by the ČÚZK. Vegetation was...

Geophysical prospection of Early Medieval settlements
Marešová, Barbora ; Valenta, Jan (advisor) ; Vošvrdová, Eliška (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on geophysical prospecting within non-destructive archaeology. To successfully carry out a geophysical survey on an archaeological site, it is important to understand the physical principles of the methods used as well as the history and characteristics of the site. This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive overview of this problem. The literature review begins with an explanation of the physical parameters that form the basis of geophysical prospecting, followed by an overview of the methods used for geophysical surveys. Finally, a practical example of geophysical prospecting is presented on the Praha-Královice site. The methodology, data processing, and interpretation of the results are also described in detail. The exploratory part of the thesis discusses how this prospecting led to the discovery of new information about the site, including the position and size of the medieval rectory. Additionally, this thesis provides a comparison of this prospecting with other published geophysical surveys of archaeological sites. Key words: geophysics, electromagnetic induction measurements, GPR, early Middle Ages, archaeology, Praha-Královice, rectory

The Angel of the Lord Went Out and Slew 185,000 - Theology 2 Kings 18-20
Luštinec, Vít ; Čapek, Filip (advisor) ; Sláma, Petr (referee)
Te biblical verses of 2 Kings 18-19 mention the military campaign of King Sennacherib of Assyria against Judah in the late 8th century BC. After conquering the fortifed cities of Judah, Sennacherib sent an ar- my with envoys from Lachish to Jerusalem, the seat of King Hezekiah. Te Judean king cries out to the Lord to spare the city. God hears Hez- ekiah's prayer and sends an angel who slaughters 185,000 men in the Assyrian camp, and Sennacherib returns to the capital of his empire, Nineveh, where he dies. Te aim of this paper is to compare the texts of the Book of Kings with other biblical and extra-biblical sources and to separate the historical and theological accounts of the verses on the basis of their comparison. Keywords: Book of Kings, Judea, Israel, Sennacherib, Neo-Assyrian Empire, Hezekiah, Old Testament, Deuteronomistic Teology, Archaeology, Herodotus

Metodika nové metodologie výzkumu artefaktů pomocí pokročilých metod
Hrubý, Petr ; Bartůněk, Vilém ; Martinec, Marek ; Palounek, David ; Bíšková, Jarmila ; Gašpar, Adam ; Havlíková, Markéta ; Hons, David ; Kapusta, Jaroslav ; Kmošek, Matěj ; Malý, Karel ; Zavřel, Jan
Metodika předkládá analytické metody pokročilého zkoumání archeologických nálezů z různorodých materiálů. Zaměřuje se jak na finančně, časově i instrumentálně více či méně náročné metody, které přinášejí, největší informační přínos pro zkoumání movitých nálezů z různých hledisek. Názorným a přehledným způsobem předkládá u jednotlivých materiálových skupin výzkumné otázky, které lze pomocí pokročilých laboratorních analýz klást, a odpovídajícím způsobem i zodpovídat. Předložená metodika plynule navazuje na „Metodiku předlaboratorní selekce vzorků pro analýzy z velkých souborů“, vytvořenou a certifikovanou v roce 2021 shodným týmem v rámci projektu NAKI II (č. DG20P02OVV007) s názvem „Pokročilé archeometrické metody získávání kvalitních dat k velkým souborům artefaktů“. Předložená metodika se oproti předcházející však neomezuje pouze na nejschůdnější a nejpřístupnější analytické metody, ale naopak zahrnuje převážně pokročilejší a tím pádem finančně, časově, personálně i instrumentálně nákladnější metody, umožňující zisk co největšího množství informací z individuálních vhodně zvolených nálezů, i na úkor případné destruktivity vůči předmětu/vzorku. Informace získané pokročilými metodami slouží například k identifikaci charakteru předmětu, jeho provenience, způsobu jeho výroby a užívání. V mnoha případech je nutné jednotlivé analytické metody vzájemně kombinovat, a tím prohlubovat míru poznání předmětu. Pro řádné vyhodnocení a interpretaci je nutné získané výsledky konfrontovat s dalšími analytickými výstupy obdobných nálezů. Kvalita získaných informací se zásadně odvíjí nejen od vhodně zvolených a kvalitně provedených analýz, ale také od vhodně stanovených a artikulovaných výzkumných otázek, na které mají analýzy pomoci odpovídat. S nevhodně zvolenou výzkumnou otázkou se i sebevětší počet nákladných analýz bude míjet účinkem a neposkytne kýžené výsledky. Proto je nutné apelovat na řádné promyšlení výzkumných otázek před prováděním analýz a až na jejich základě zvolit a nechat provést příslušné analytické zkoumání. Cílovou skupinou předložené metodiky jsou převážně pracovníci archeologických institucí, provádějících terénní archeologické výzkumy a vědecký výzkum založený na studiu archeologického materiálu, dále pracovníci sbírkotvorných institucí v podobě muzeí i univerzit pracující s archeologickými nálezy ve výuce, vědě a výzkumu. Zvláště těm má metodika posloužit jako podklad pro volbu nejvhodnějších a informačně nejpřínosnějších metod, vzhledem k příslušným výzkumným otázkám. Dalšími uživateli jsou techničtí pracovníci a operátoři analytických přístrojů, kteří provádějí základní vyhodnocení surových dat. Pro ně má tato metodika sloužit k alespoň základnímu seznámení se specifiky jednotlivých materiálových skupin archeologických nálezů a výpovědním možnostem v rámci archeologického zkoumání.
