Our department hosted the kick-off meeting of the Erasmus+ project SHARITAGE (Digitally enabled community-based European SHAred cultural heRITAGE engagement) in the end of October. The project is coordinated at the University of Würzburg.

V Praze se uskutečnil kick-off meeting projektu Erasmus+ SHARITAGE. Náš ústav je jedním z hlavních partnerů vedených Univerzitou Würzburg. Cílem projektu je využít digitální metody k propojení archeologů, univerzit a místních komunit a současně tyto poznatky přenést i do univerzitní výuky.

Great to see our colleagues from @unikarlova.cuni.cz joining the fieldwork at Tel Eter.
This project sheds light on the everyday life and agricultural landscapes of the Judean Shephelah—beyond the big fortified centers.

Our new Nature Geoscience paper funded by @Leverhulme.ac.uk is finally out!

“Major excursions in sulfur isotopes linked to permafrost change in Eurasia during the last 50,000 years”

Naši studenti 1. ročníku bakalářského studia archeologie dnes zahájili terénní výzkum na raně středověkém blatném hradišti Kozly.

První den se studenti učili vzorkovat a popisovat půdní profil.

O lokalitě více zde: cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kozly_(...

Our first-year BA students began working at the early medieval site of Kozly – a marshland settlement once encircled by the Elbe River. I showed them how to describe soil profiles, determine soil colours, take samples. Today, they open their first trenches.

We hosted the workshop “The Fluvial Anthroposphere in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Era” in Prague, bringing together researchers across Europe to explore rivers, land use, and settlement change through geoarchaeology, spatial modeling, and sediment archives. #MedievalStudies #Geoarchaeology

Dnes naši studenti navštívili History Park Ledčice (historypk.cz), vzdělávací areál se zaměřením na pravěk. Věnovali se prezentaci experimentální archeologie pro veřejnost, včetně práce s nejmladšími návštěvníky.

Doc. Radomír Tichý dnes přednášel o experimentální archeologii, expedici Monoxylon, broušené industrii i Archeoparku Všestary. Ukázal, proč je experiment klíčový pro pochopení pravěkých technologií. Děkujeme!

An assistant at our department contributed to the development of a study on long barrows. New findings shed light on the environment of the first farming communities in Bohemia.

Doporučujeme i pro naše studenty. Prof. Ackermann přednášel na Cyklu interdisciplinárních přednášek v minulém roce.

Pristine Nature or a Garden Gone Wild?

Join Prof. Oren Ackermann for a fascinating talk on Israel's landscape through the lens of geoarchaeology.

Have you ever thought about the fact that writing is not just words and thoughts? That what is written down goes hand in hand with what we write on? Our choice of writing medium—clay, papyrus, parchment—can reveal who we adopted a writing technology from, or who taught it to us.

This study shows how pOSL & pXRF reveal hidden anthropogenic markers in Tell Burna's soils. Led by Israeli archaeologists, it explores human-environment interactions with contributions from @martinpetrjanovsky.bsky.social, a member of our institute.

‘UCL Archaeology South-East are currently looking for two new Senior Geoarchaeologists to join their team. These are permanent positions as part of a friendly team, and there would be plenty of scope to focus your own specialisms within the role’

The new study of Martin Janovský, Laszlo Ferenczi ad their colleagues presents new insights into how stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope analysis aids in reconstructing historical land use.

Tomáš Klír from our department published his new monograph as the 3rd volume of our Prague Medieval Studies series by
KarolinumPress.

My colleagues and I are at the Faculty of Arts, Masaryk University and we are discussing the resilience of the society in the past. I will introduce them to our latest study on C and N isotopes in soil - to determine land-use changes in the past. What was grown on the site?
