Hallstatt Moravia Connected: Glass and Faience Jewelry from the Býčí skála Cave
Original language description
The Hallstatt period was a time of significant advancements in glassmaking. Glass beads, as desired goods, they appear more frequently in Central European contexts - marking close connections to southern and eastern civilisations. As a popular part of elite's women attire and a status symbol, glass beads represented valuable gifts and highly sought-after goods. Glass - alongside amber from the north - promoted the meridional trade and the Amber Road's development. Noteworthy illustration of this phenomenon comes from the Býčí skála Cave (Czech republic). This sanctuary, containing elite burials (Ha D1b-D3, 575-450 BC), yielded the largest assemblage of Hallstatt period glass and faience beads north of the Alps (almost 4500 pieces). It's introduction is the focus of this contribution. A showcase of the bead morphotypes is complemented by SEM-EDS data. Possible origin of the presented Moravian glass assemblage in the areas of northern Italy, Slovenia, or the northern Black Sea will be discussed.
