The Institute of Archaeology would like to announce publication of a new book: Kysela – Danielisová – Militký: Stories that made the Iron Age.
This collective monograph has been created on the occasion of a significant life anniversary of dr. Natalia Venclová – a leading Iron Age researcher with national, as well as international reputation. The editors addressed prominent European experts who focus on particular topics standing at the centre of the life-long professional interests of the Jubilee and, thus, present the readers with a selection of relevant articles and studies that not only illustrate a wide range of interests of dr. Venclová, but also, in some way, the latest overview of European research dealing with the Iron Age.
