At the urbanist level, differences from towns and villages are obvious. Geophysical survey plays an important part in the study of the urbanist forms of these dwellings. In contrast, the presumption that mining settlements typically consisted of residential sunken features was not confirmed by material evidence. The latest research in the Staré Hory settlement, Jihlava brought detail information about the construction of sunken features. In general terms, the main reason for the differences in buildings situated in mining environments is not their provisional character. On the other hand, the authors believe there was little need for individual cool storage spaces. As illustrated by a similar situation in villages, cellars might have been adopted from contemporary towns regardless of necessity, as part of the colonization type of house. There were also large communal cellars, as demonstrated by an example from Kremsiger in the Krušné hory mountains.

They were identified by means of the archaeological interpretation of anthropomorphic elements of a digital model of the territory’s relief. All of them are the remains of settlement complexes from the period of the early medieval settlement of the elevated sections of the Doupov Mountains. In close proximity of three villages there were also the remains of fortified seats – manors. Thanks to the collaboration between the Heritage Institute in Loket and the military area administration it was possible to conduct surface collecting on five of these sites, which confirmed the mentioned observation and yielded a broad spectrum of pottery from the high and late Middle Ages. The technological variability of the pottery reflects links with the nearby historical regions Podbořansko and Loketsko, and corresponds to the transit character of the territory.
