Fuzzy Methods in Land Use Modeling for Archaeology
Machálek, T.; Cimler, R.; Olševičová, K.; Danielisová, Alžběta
2013 - English
The general objective of our research is to develop the complex agentbased simulation of ancient Celtic society population, food production and economics. To achieve this we proposed the agent-based agricultural model of land suitability for miscellaneous farming systems. The behaviour of agents is controlled by a fuzzy rule-based system. The system encodes farmers' agricultural knowledge as regards the decision where to apply specific farming method. Corresponding linguistic variables describe (1) the distance of individual land patches from the household, (2) the slope of the land, (3) the yield of individual land patches and (4) total harvest as a percentage of inhabitants' annual nutritional requirement. To prevent high-frequency spatial changes in land suitability caused by time-dependent stochastic nature of the crop yields, our model performs result smoothing using spatial signal filtering.

Early Modern archaeological assemblages from Prague Castle and period written and iconographic sources
Blažková, Gabriela; Frolík, Jan; Žegklitzová-Veselá, Jana
2012 - English
The main goal of this work was to introduce Early Modern finds of ceramics and glass from Prague Castle. As a starting source for this study were used eight find collections of cesspits originating from the Prague Castle area belong to houses located along the northern and western edge of the Third Castle Courtyard. The above mentioned collections of finds represent mainly features unearthed in the years 1925-1932 or 1957. The only recently discovered cesspit represents a feature (OBJ. 1) from the House No. 34/IV on the Jiřské square. The study is attempting to answer the question, in the cooperation with archive sources, how much can the cesspit-fillings reflect social position of their users.

Bohemian finds of stove tiles with the signature "HANS BERMAN"
Soukup, Michal B.; Soukupová, M.; Šrejber, A.
2012 - English
The article looks at one phenomenon of material culture of 16th century in Europe - stove tiles produced by Hans Berman workshops in central Germany. The finds of renaissance stove tiles with the signature and the date - "HANS BERMAN 155X" or "HANS BERMAN 1562" are known from the area of today's Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Sweden (south), the island part of Denmark and Latvia (Riga). From Bohemia and Moravia these stove tiles were not yet published. In 2007 in collection of Regional Museum in Teplice two complexes of fragments of stove tiles with signature HANS BERMAN 155X were detected. Later similar fragments have been found on the other Bohemian sites. Most of them are located in northern Bohemia (Bílina, Krupka, Prosetice, Teplice), and two sites in eastern part of the country (Dvůr Králové nad Labem, Pecka). Frontal parts of these stove tiles are decorated with 6 various reliefs - "Adam and Eve and the Tree of Life", "Crucifixion of Jesus Christ", portraits - "elector Maurice of Saxony", "August of Saxony", an "unknown nobleman" and "Architecture - church window". It has been newly shown, that production of Hans Berman workshop was in 16th century also distributed to the Bohemia.

Evidence of tin coating on archaeological ferrous artefacts by voltammetry of microparticules (VMP)
Ottenwelter, Estelle; Costa, V.
2010 - English
Voltammetry of microparticules (VMP) using a paraffinimpregnated graphite electrode (PIGE) to transfer material directly from the artefacts to an electrochemical cell, was applied on two objects from Medieval Ages covered by a grey metallic coating in a variable state of conservation and appearance as a non invasive analytical method to characterise artefacts. Results have shown that the light grey metallic surface layers observed on both objects present different chemical composition, which could be determined in a selective way, following their stratigraphical location of the artefacts.

Finds of Early Modern period ceramics from cesspit B at Prague castle
Blažková-Dubská, Gabriela
2009 - English
The following text provides a detail analysis of the assemblage of ceramics from cesspit B, which was built onto the west wall of the southern transept of the Romanesque St. Vitus Basilica at Prague Castle. It is a total of 187 reconstructed vessels – 120 pots, 47 jugs, 9 bowls, 4 lids, 2 pans, 17 stove tiles and 3 miscellaneous objects. On the basis of the comparisons with published collections (Most, Tábor, Strážnice) is possible to date the use of cesspit B to the end of the 15th century and possibly into the first half of the 16th century.

Hazardous substances in the work of metal conservator
Ottenwelter, Estelle
2009 - English
Conservator-restorers are exposed to hazardous substances (organic solvents, chemicals, dusts) in their daily work. Absorbed through inhalation, ingestion and by skin contact, these hazardous substances may cause acute toxicity and long term toxic effects if basic safety rules are not respected. After a brief summary of basic principles of toxicology, organ specific toxic effects encountered by chosen hazardous substances to which metal conservator may be exposed in their work and safety rules of handling and storing these substances are described.
