Hallstatt elite burials in Bohemia from the perspective of interregional contacts

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In large parts of Bohemia during the early Hallstatt period (Ha C – D1) elites are represented in tumuli burials. Te individuals buried in these chamber graves frequently are equipped with wagons or parts of thereof and other valuable and prestigious items. Most of these are imports from other regions of the Hallstatt culture or even from the Mediterranean world. Tus, these burials show interregional contacts between early Hallstatt Bohemia and other regions.Dealing with the origin of such imports, it appears, that individual Bohemian regions show evolutionary affinity especially to the geographically adjacent areas. Namely there is a clear relation between central and northwestern Bohemia with its population of Bylany culture, south and western Bohemia with its Hallstatt tumulus culture and the Hallstatt civilization of southwestern Germany. On the other hand the east Bohemian Silesia-Platěnice culture evinces significant tendency to the cultures of the East Hallstatt area.It may be argued that some imports represent the products of more distant areas, for example from the Etruscan or southeast Alpine regions. But also in these cases it is highly probable, that these items reached their final destination coming through the above mentioned adjacent areas, where they are also well represented. Such situation thus reflects again the significance of the proximity of these important evolutional centres, such as southwest Germany or the east Alpine area.Regarding the character of proper contacts, we are today already far away from the idea of the interpretation of various importations in the terms of direct encounter of the various ethnicities, although in some cases it cannot be completely excluded. More probably the existence of the luxurious imported goods in the Bohemian elite graves features an adoption of a certain behavioral pattern in the environs of the Central European early Hallstatt social elite, which reflects an economical potential as well as political power.
