This presented thesis summarises findings from a rescue excavation at the site Čelákovice - "V Rybníčkách" (dist.

The field research has been conducted by Municipal Museum in Čelákovice in summer 2011 due to the construction of a trade centre by the firm Tesco. In the area of 1,4 ha was uncovered a total of 86 features belonging to the stroked pottery culture (StK). Features were mostly constituted of longhouse postholes, further bigger pits and loam pits. They contained more than 6000 ceramic fragments mostly of cauldron- and beaker- shaped vessels, dated on the basis of ornamentation to the younger phase StK IVa. There was also found a large number of chipped and polished industry (450 and 456 artefacts), concentrated mainly in three sunken features interpreted as workshops. Production activity is proven beside fragments of the blades and flakes also by different kinds of sandstone abraders as well as drilling cores. The most important raw material in the collection of chipped industry is represented by the silicite from glacigenic sediments (48 %) and Bavarian Jurrasic chert (38 %). This chert was imported to the locality from about 250 km remote mining site at Arnhofen through the...
