Early Medieval Settlement in Hrdlovka
dr. P. Meduna – 2002-2004
An early medieval settlement in Hrdlovka (Teplice county, Northwest Bohemia) has been investigated by means of a large-scale rescue excavation in the foreground of a brown-coal quarry. The settlement is exceptional due to the preservation of the original cultural, a long-time settlement of the area all through the Early Middle Ages, and the possibility to incorporate the settlement in the context of localities in a region where excavations have been carried out over a long period of time.
The aim of the proposed grant project is to reconstruct a medieval cultural landscape and a dynamics pattern of the inner structure of the settlement in the 6th to 13th centuries. The proposed project will result in a preparation of manuscripts for a complex publication.
