Antrakologická analýza a možnosti rekonstrukce skladby a struktury dřevin z ranně středověkých hradišť jihozápadních Čech
PETRLÍKOVÁ, Veronika
This study focuses on the possibility of regional vegetation reconstruction based on anthracological evidence originating from two hillforts Prácheň and Netolice. Charcoals were analyzed from both hillforts and from the areas under the hillfort. Specific anthracomass, the relative proportion of mass fractions and the part of the tree used according to the curvature of the tree rings were monitored for the sets. This data was compared with the results of the pollen analysis and with the reconstruction map of the vegetation. The development of the area's settlement was described on the basis of the archaeological database Archaelogical map of Czech Republic

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 general principles of building offering recognition in the archaeological contexts were formulated on the basis of archaeological, written and ethnographical sources. Difficulties with their interpretation and terminology were discussed pursuant to the current discourse in European archaeology. Individual archaeological findings in the area of today's Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia from 6th to 16th century are presented and evaluated.

Early Medieval settlement of Zbraslav region. Archeological regional study.
Sandanusová, Anna ; Štefan, Ivo (advisor) ; Laval, Filip (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the development of settlement in the Zbraslav region in the Early and High Middle Ages on the basis of archaeological evidence. The main basis for the assessment of the settlement transformation in the region is the catalogue of archaeologically investigated sites and on this basis developed series of maps reflecting the development of settlement in various stages of Early and High Middle Ages. Data obtained on the basis of archaeological sources are supplemented by documentary sources. In the thesis, I deal also with reconstruction of the agricultural background of settlement areas and their relation to the burial sites in the region. In conclusion, I try to assess the overall importance of Zbraslav region for both capital Prague and throughout the Czech basin. Keywords: Zbraslav region, settlement, Early Middle Ages, archaeology, regional study
