| Popis | This abstract focuses on the examination of Bronze Age burial rites in Moravia, shedding light on the transmission of knowledge and cultural customs in the Bronze Age Europe. At the beginning of this paper was an effort to understand the transition between the skeletal and cremation rite in the Middle Bronze Age more accurately. After obtaining radiocarbon data and in part strontium data, it turns out that some changes in the burial rite have the character of a long process and are very complex, but others are very fast. Questions of changes in burial rite from skeletal cemeteries of the Early Bronze Age to small burial sites of the Middle Bronze Age will be illustrated based on radiocarbon data from various well typologically dated burials. The analysis of Urnfield cemeteries, characterized by cremation burials in urns, represent a significant funerary tradition spanning from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. Through the lens of funerary archaeology and scientific radiocarbon and strontium data from cemetery Přáslavice and radiocarbon dates from other selected sites this study explores the temporal and spatial expansion of urn burial rites in Moravia, highlighting the interconnectedness of communities and the exchange of ideas within the region. By investigating the material culture associated with Urnfield burials, including grave goods the study aims to discern patterns of knowledge transfer and cultural interaction. This paper proposes a multi-disciplinary approach, integrating archaeological and scientific perspectives, but also shows the limits of scientific data and archaeological record. Still, we hop to elucidate the complexities of Burial rites in Moravia and their significance in the broader context of European prehistory. |
