Středověká šlechtická sídla v severovýchodních Čechách (Archeologie hradu Kumburku) / Medieval aristocratic residences in the north-eastern Czech Republic (Archaeology of The Kumburk Castle)

This thesis is divided into two coherent parts. The first part deals with issue of castle buildings in a specified area of the north-east Czech Republic. The aim of this part is to offer an overview of development and typology of individual settlements. Next, it introduces a model which presents the structure of castle buildings' layout within the specified area. The second part of the thesis focuses on the material culture of the castle Kumburk situated in the investigated area. The purpose of this part is to analyse, synthesize and interpret the non-stratified discoveries which were obtained by field walking in the castle area. The author attempts to place the results in a historical context of this castle on a basis of comparative study of scholarly literature, written and iconographic evidence. By processing the so far neglected archaeological discoveries the author also tries to identify everyday life in the castle from the 14th to the 16th century.
