Název v původním jazyce

Portal of Amateur Collaborators and Register of Individual Finds of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The searching of archaeological finds is reserved exclusively for professional archaeologists under the conditions of Czech legislation. In practice, however, many archaeological institutions have been cooperating at various levels with the finder-collectors for several decades. Different approaches to collaborators and the finds themselves, their documentation and storage in collections have been subject to many discussions concerning the ethics and legality as well as the very meaning of such collaboration. In 2021, the Portal of Amateur Collaborators and Register of Individual Finds was launched. The aim was to identify amateurs who could and were prepared to collaborate with archaeologists within the legal limits and to set up the fundamental ethical and methodological procedures. The portal was created as a platform to support collaboration between professionals and amateurs. The use of the portal is not obligatory, therefore, its start was relatively slow. The launch of the portal was marked in the first months by a heated debate on legal and ethical aspects. At present, it is only used to a greater extent in only some regions. The main obstacles to its wider use are administrative constraints resulting from outdated legislation and a lack of manpower on the side of professional archaeologists. Although the portal currently covers only a small part of the finder-collectors community in the Czech Republic, its considerable contribution is to open a discussion on the unification of cooperation procedures and searchers and the possibilities of using their capacities for the protection and research of archaeological heritage.
