According to A. Přichystal’s classifi cation (cf. 2010), siliceous weathering products are classifi ed into the SiO2 minerals group. This study presents results of the analysis of collections gathered together in southern and south-western Moravia, and contributes to their more precise petrographic and cultural classifi cation. The authors introduce a new type of local siliceous weathering products as the Malhostovice type. It is a preliminary term defi ned similarly as the Ctidružice type, Lesůňky type, etc., Martin Kuča, Jaroslav Bartík., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
1_A disturbed Linear Pottery Culture pit was investigated in 2007 at Studénka – “Záhumení”. A rescue excavation was carried out in April 2010. Twelve sunken features were excavated. Recovered material included 775 pottery fragments, 105 stone artefacts, as well as ceramic weights, a fragment of a stone weight used in a fishing net, a flat hoof axe, etc. The ceramics can be dated to the IIb LPC settlement phase. Lithic analysis suggests that this was a secondary processing site. The Cracow Cz˛estochowa Jurassic chert accounts for a very high proportion of lithics (85.7 %) - the highest proportion of any statistically significant assemblage in Moravia and Czech and Polish Silesia. Only few pieces of the local erratic flint are present (8.6 %). Studénka - "Záhumení" as well as other (at least two) similar sites (e.g. Bravantice – has been partly investigated, 81 % of raw material is Cracow Cz˛estochowa Jurassic chert) form a chain of sites (microregion), located in several-kilometer intervals near the Oder River, although they do not appear to be linked to the river. Each site is located independently of each other on a left-hand short tributary and gives the impression of an initial settlement which did not grow further. A chain of sites predisposes left-bank route of long-distance communication deduced for later prehistoric period and early Middle Ages., 2_It probably developed during the height of Cracow Cz˛estochowa Jurassic chert transport to Moravia or even to Silesia, during the LPC II phase, and subsequently declined during the LPC III phase. The purpose of the sites was to participate in raw material transport. This pattern probably emerged in the Opava region, but it may also have originated in the Beˇcva Gate or Cracow regions. The left-bank settlement has evidently no connection with the contemporaneous LPC settlement on the other side of the river (at the microregions and cadasters Štramberk Blahutovice, located 15–20 km), where the presence silicites Cracow Cz˛estochowa Jurassic form an exception., Vratislav Janák, Aleš Knápek, Kateřina Papáková., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
