Contribution to the knowledge of the oldest Germanic settlement of Moravia according to the new surface findings
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
The study presents a typological and chronological evaluation of a collection of newly acquired findings from the 1st cent. A. D., mainly from south and southeastern parts of Moravia. These findings have been collected in last ten years through an intense metal detector survey. Over 90 % of items are bronze fibulas of western Roman provinces, Noric-Pannonian or Germanic origin. Nevertheless, many of them have not been known in Moravia so far. These artifacts have been examined through non-destructive metallographic analysis which confirmed a preference of brass against bronze as a fibula-crafting material of the older Roman period. Therefore non-stratified findings bring evidence of far denser Germanic settlement of Moravia in the 1st cent. A. D. than we thought up to date (40 new sites recorded). This is important since this time period has so far been missing, with few exceptions, during archaeological excavations in recent years. The findings of field surveys have also helped to identify three new cremation burial grounds. Burying started during the time of the Marobodus Empire and the development of the grounds is most certainly geographically and chronologically connected with the existence of the Kingdom of Vannius.
