Within the Department, we also pursue activities associated with the study of settlement structures of the La Tène period. We focus both on common open-field settlements and specific settlement forms, such as oppida or rectangular ditched enclosures (Viereckschanzes). An important topic is also the cognition of eastern Bohemian hilltop sites, in particular rocky locations and caves. Apart from the processing of find assemblages retrieved from residential areas, we also carry out surface prospecting and other forms of non-destructive surveys. We also observe the settlement structure in context of other archaeological components as well as the natural environment and mineral resources.
