Site Klčov -- Pod Horou I (Levoča District) was discovered during the highway D1 construction in the year 2012. Excavated were settlement features of the Púchov culture (La Tène and Roman period) and from the High Middle Ages. The aim of the contribution is to analyse the settlement structure and chronological relationships. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article is dealing with the oldest La Tène features found in the area of the oppidum České Lhotice. From the chronological evaluation of these few artefacts follows that most of them fall within the periods LT B1 and LT C1, although some of them might have survived in the next period as well. The occurrence of such a collection in the area of the oppidum gives rise to several different interpretation views, which are considered in the context of similar assemblages of finds from other oppida in Central Europe.

Archival research uncovered documents of research as well as investigation activities in the village of Obid. Finds come from various periods. Part of the finds dated to the La Tène period was bought by the National Museum in Budapest. The finds comprise pottery and a bracelet which were included among grave goods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The goal of this article is to inform mainly on the results of the archaeological research carried out at the studied area during several seasons. The archaeological excavation of Ladice, Vlčia lúka and Ladické sites, was carried out using several research methods among which non-destructive methods predominate. They included an archaeobotanical research whose results confirmed intense use of the local landscape for farming in the past. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Assemblages of Late Hallstatt to La Tène pottery also contain vessel fragments used for secondary purposes. These include graphite sherds with abraded edges, finds of which from Bohemia are listed in the attached inventory. Possible interpretations are discussed, and potential methods for their use in the pottery craft are tested in experiments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Vessels as part of funerary equipment are traditionally seen as dining and drinking service. It is assumed that they originally contained food and liquids used either during the journey of the deceased to the eternity or during one's life. In some cases, another function can be con­sidered as well. In this regard, this contribution discusses the evidence of the La Téne burial pottery with unusual content. These are the findings of fibulae and rings with no traces of burnt human remains, the fact which excludes their function of urns. Considering the finding situation of the La Téne graves in the te­rritory of the Carpathian Basin, the author tries to interpret these unusual contents of the burial pottery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
