Holocene Climatic Optimum in the Iranian region: geoarchaeological and climatological study in relation to human settlement
MARŠÁK, Daniel
This thesis collects previous knowledge and information about palaeoenvironmental and archaeological situation in the area of Iran primarily from the Holocene Climatic Optimum period, sometimes called as Altithermal. Holocene Climatic Optimum is characterized by high temperatures and high intensity of atmospheric precipitation and it lasts from 9000 cal. BP to 5000-6000 cal. BP. The research work aims to map the process of the human settlement as a result of warm Climate Changes. This will be accomplished by making a contribution of Geoarchaeological and Palaeoclimatic proxies which are going to introduce and reconstruct forming conditions for the human settlement. Significant element of the thesis is identification of the Hunter-Gatherer societies and interception theirs agricultural transition. The most important area for this transition is Southwestern part of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Khuzestan Province, Lorestan Province, Ilam Province). The Zagros Mountains which "include" these Provinces will be subjected to the depth analysis.

Krajina a její půdní vývoj z hlediska činnosti člověka: případová studie na soutoku Vltavy a Labe
Hrnčiarová, Slavomíra
This paper focuses on the assessment of the use of the landscape during the early Eneolithic era on the two study areas Kly and Vrbno. Using soil analyzes concentrated on the selected physical, physicochemical, chemical, biochemical and biological properties of the early holocene sediments, which form the infill in the study areas. Based on archeological discoveries, these walls were dated to the period of the Michelsberg culture (4400 BC). Sediments and texture elements are among the most important sources of information on the historical character and of the landscape use. There is a question, what was the original purpose and function of these objects and what was the process of their germination.

Využití geopedologických metod ve výzkumu vývoje krajiny
Olišarová, Lucie
This thesis describes laboratory and terraneous methods focused on the themes of landscape changes. It describes the basic principles of methods, such as a description of the stratigraphy, micromorphology, magnetic susceptibility, phosphate analysis and more. The thesis also discusses the strengths and the weaknesses methods which are mentioned above. The conclusion is devoted to a particular research in the area Česká Bělá, where are identified the remains in the country after the extraction of polymetallic ores in the early Middle Ages. There are still visible some remains of mining till today and there already have been done two archaeological excavations since 2007.

Geoarchaeological reconstruction of Ústecká basin landscape from prehistory time to the Middle Ages
SVATUŠKOVÁ, Anna
The presented thesis summarizes the geoarcheology of the area of so called Ústecká kotlina and it is written on two levels. This area studied is quite strictly specified. The first level covers the natural conditions followed by the hypotheses of human ecological strategies studied mainly on the base of (re)search and foot recognoscation. The second level of this thesis is based on my experiences with the rescue excavations which were held on the site Blok 004 right in the centre of the town Ústí nad Labem. I tried to interpret the information value of analysed sections on the base of pedogeochemical and micromorphological results.
