Abstract

V originále

The spatial analysis of the Moravian Gravettian is being realised in four levels: The Gravettian landscape (which clearly differs from the Aurignacian or the Magdalenian landscapes) is related to the riverine network of Moravia, where sites and site-clusters are localized in the valleys, in lower altitudes, and in almost regular distances between each other. - The site-clusters (such as Dolní Věstonice-Pavlov) demonstrate an internal hierarchy, based on the size and the complexity of archaeological record. - The large sites are separated into individual settlement units (hearths, features, object accumulations), and their and spatio/temporal relationships are being examined. - Dwelling structures are classified in four formal types; the hypothetical architectural constructions are tested against analogies from experimental archaeology and ethnoarchaeology.
