Památky archeologické, 2021

The cemetery’s dating to 2021–1751 BC corresponds to the mature stage of the Únětice culture in other parts of Bohemia (Moucha’s preclassical and classical stages). The cemetery is characterised by stone and apparently even wooden structures, multiple burials and the exclusive presence of miniature vessels. The population was composed primarily of old adults with the corresponding degenerative productive changes; only two non-adults were determined. Epigenetic marks on the skeletons testifying to a certain degree of kinship between the buried individuals were documented at the group cemetery and outside of it. New excavations have provided more detailed information on the spatial structure of burial grounds which, in addition to large cemeteries (of the Liběšovice, Březno near Louny, and Velké Žernoseky type), are composed of cemeteries with 10–20 graves, small groups of graves and solitary
graves. These are also frequently accompanied by contemporary settlements located either close to the cemeteries or, as in the case of Lovosice, in the middle of the burial grounds. The spatial distribution of exogenous artefacts (amber beads, gold ornaments, silicite daggers) points to the possibility of the existence of an established network of long-distance routes in northwest Bohemia in the Early Bronze Age. One of the possible nodal points connected to the long-distance exchange system could have been located in the lower Ohře River region. This is documented, among other things, by the concentration of burial grounds with exceptional finds, settlements with evidence of metallurgy and the largest Bohemian hoards of ingots concentrated in the geographically defined microregion of Lovosice.

Studying 271 human genomes dated ~4900 to 1600 BCE from the European heartland, Bohemia, we reveal unprecedented genetic changes and social processes. Major migrations preceded the arrival of “steppe” ancestry, and at ~2800 BCE, three genetically and culturally differentiated groups coexisted. Corded Ware appeared by 2900 BCE, were initially genetically diverse, did not derive all steppe ancestry from known Yamnaya, and assimilated females of diverse backgrounds. Both Corded Ware and Bell Beaker groups underwent dynamic changes, involving sharp reductions and complete replacements of Y-chromosomal diversity at ~2600 and ~2400 BCE, respectively, the latter accompanied by increased Neolithic-like ancestry. The Bronze Age saw new social organization emerge amid a ≥40% population turnover.

From weapons and tools to symbols: use-wear analysis of the Early Bronze Age metal daggers in Boh... more From weapons and tools to symbols: use-wear analysis of the Early Bronze Age metal daggers in Bohemia. Preliminary results. In our lands, the Early Bronze Age is commonly associated with the occurrence of daggers in graves. However, the majority of research linked with the publication or further analysis of the local dagger finds usually highlighted just their occurrence (or not) in the graves per se, followed by a discussion of their chronology and typology. The function of the daggers and their role in a social context have not been tackled that much so far. Abroad, on the contrary, a whole methodology for the study of use-wear traces on bronze artefacts has been developed in the meantime. And while it has been applied to typologically different specimens, mainly artefacts linked to warfare, we are equally convinced of its applicability to daggers deposited in the graves of the Únětice culture. This pilot study therefore targets traces of their specific use, the influence of post-depositional processes, and the interpretation of organic residues. The preliminary results highlight the applicability of such an approach to the daggers as well and indicate their potential for the reconstruction of the ‘life cycle of the artefacts’.

The site history, topography, graves and their offerings, burial rites, as well as preliminary anthropological observations are all being discussed. Typological analysis indicated a date within the earlier, but not the earliest stages of the Únětice culture. This relatively limited assemblage, with only six offering bearing graves, still gave rise to a number of interesting questions. Special attention is given to the question of synchronisation with the Danubian Early Bronze Age and the applicability of Ruckdeschel's periodiza‑ tion to Central Bohemia.
