Příklady uplatnění nedestruktivních geofyzikálních měření při průzkumech raně středověkých hradišť na území Přemyslovské domény i širších čech

Abstract

For several decades, the Institute of Archaeology in Prague has used non-destructive geophy-sical methods to research fortifications. New cooperation between archaeologists and geophysicist as part of a Czech-Polish project resulted in a more systematic and targeted survey of early medieval fortifica-tions. The results of this cooperation were presented at a workshop Use of non-destructive and destru-ctive methods in archaeological research of early medieval hillforts, held in Prague in 2019. The main part of this article contains different examples of geophysical prospecting used in connection with ar-chaeological research into the early medieval fortifications in Bohemia. Selected examples illustrate various conditions, combinations and possibilities of application of non-destructive geophysical methods. In several cases, the results of geophysical measurements can also be supplemented by the results of archaeological research or surveys.
