The paper presents new ideas on interpretation of the Early La Tène art and new studies of Mediterranean imports in central Europe (pottery, bronze vessels and glass) taking into account the context of their creation but also of their deposition (with the probable significance of ‘objects of memory’). Not all the pieces must have been trade goods brought through the Salt route; some may be results of individual events (transaction gifts, dowry in diplomatic marriages, heritage – keimelia). The examples of the Mediterranean technique, crafts and science were more important than the imported objects themselves. The latter are clear proofs of contacts while the imitations and reflexions of Mediterranean models show that these models or ideas were more or less known also in the more distant regions.

In November 2015, the expedition directed by the Czech Institute of Egyptology carried out its fourth excavation campaign at Jebel Sabaloka (West Bank). Efforts were devoted to further exploration of the site of Sphinx (SBK.W-60) in the area of the "Rocky Cities" where a large late prehistoric burial ground, tentatively dated to the 8th millennium cal. BC, had been uncovered in 2012. Altogether 5 trenches, with the square area of 17 m2 in total and with their depths equating to as much as 1 m, were excavated to explore another section of the burial ground and to investigate the settlement stratigraphies in the southern and central parts of the site. Alongside the excavation, selected categories of finds (lithics, ground stone artefacts, animal bones) were analysed and documented. Also, further detailed surface survey and documentation of varied features at the site were performed in order to gather additional data necessary for the preparation of the first detailed report on this remarkable site. Last but not least, special measures were taken to protect the study area from damage by both illegal excavation and gravel quarrying.
