Silicite daggers from the territories of the Czech Republic and Slovakia (a preliminary study)
Original language description
At the end of the Eneolithic (2200 BC) and in the Early Bronze Age (2200 ? 1700 BC) silicite (flint) daggers appeared in the territory of former Czechoslovakia. They are believed to be prevalently imported because there is no evidence of their local production. We have recorded 88 daggers in the Czech Republic (42 pieces in Bohemia, 45 pieces in Moravia and one piece in Czech Silesia); while, in Slovakia, we found only five such artefacts (from a total of 94 pieces). In relation to raw material utilized, we could analyze only 58 finds from the Czech Republic. Northern flint (i.e. flint raw material of the Danian and Maastrichtian age, generally imported from the north based on the archaeological finds) is the most common in the studied collection. Onlytwo daggers made of local raw material (Moravian Jurassic chert) have been recorded in Moravia.
