The hoard of bronze axes found in Kukleny contained 56 axes, which makes it the largest Early Bronze Age hoard of axes from Czech Republic. The Hradec Králové district has always been considered as a periphery within the period. This hoard proves that this opinion is wrong and it also proves important position of the region on the intersection of routes between Poland, central Bohemia and Moravia. Our contribution introduces a set of documentation methods (Image Based Modelling – SfM, RTI, Laser Aided Profiler, Metal wear analysis), that are aimed on non-destructive and interdisciplinary research of Bronze Age artefacts. On this example we would like to present a documentation procedure that enables a complex study of artefact. It is focused on recognition of traces of manufacturing and use-wear traces (in combination with metallographic analysis). Result is a set of data that enables further analysis and preservation of information value of each artefact. Our goal is to create a platform that would enable to see correlations between other similar finds throughout Central Europe. The gained data is important not only when discussing hoards as phenomenon but also for the use-wear analysis itself and for typology of axes. The existing typologies are usually repetitive, locally based and in many cases very vague. We presume these categories represent very subjective opinion of each author. We believe that by precise documentation and comparison we can obtain important information that exceeds conventional typologies. For example by precise comparison of shape we can find out whether any of them were made in the same mold or based on the same model. We can also gain better understanding if manufacture technology. By metal wear analysis we can determine whether the axes were used as tools or weapons or if they represented a symbol of status in society.
