Abstract

V originále

During the second half of the 3rd millennium cal BC, the Copper Age society in Moravia, expressed in archaeological record as the Corded Ware and Bell Beaker cultures, underwent a major transformation. In contrast to previous centuries, which have nearly no regular graves, in this period well-equipped burials, sometimes covered by barrows, constitute most of the archaeological record. Three main topics will be presented. Firstly the possibilities of reconstruction of the real society based on mostly intentionally selected and added grave goods will be discussed. Secondly I will focus on the on-going research based on the so called unintentional data within the graves – specifically food strategies. In the third part of the paper I will concentrate on the use of some raw materials in the 3rd and 2nd millennium cal BC, which can be used then to construct models of the regional communication and exchange networks in this area lying at the borders between the Corded Ware culture sphere and the nascent Bronze Age cultures situated in the Carpathian Basin.
