The article presents the finding of a La Tène rein guide ring from Vendolí, Svitavy district. Morphological-typological analysis has shown that it was a so far unknown type dating to LTD1. From a regional point of view, the finding complements the mosaic consisting of other, so far scarce La Tène artefacts discovered in the Svitavy region and along with them, it testifies to the existence of a communication corridor connecting permanently settled areas in eastern Bohemia and Moravia. In a supra-regional context, it represents a new hybrid form, combining features of certain western and eastern types of rein guide rings which constituted a functional and at the same time representative part of horse harness. Along with some similarly shaped findings, it represents a specific central European variant of these remarkable artefacts associated with the world of late La Tène social elites.

The article brings a comprehensive evaluation of the current state of research of the La Tène period rein guide rings from the Czech Republic. The evaluation was motivated by the rein guide ring that was recently discovered within the La Tène quadrangular enclosure in Markvartice, dis. Jičín (Czech Republic). The discussion is focused on the issues connected with the context of the finds of the rein guide rings, their chronology, spatial distribution, and importance of these artefacts for the understanding of the La Tène society.

The paper aims to assess a few new finds of metal vessels from the Late La Tène sites in Eastern Bohemia. These objects are first analysed from a formal and stylistic perspective, and subsequently discussed in the context of other similar finds and their significance. The bronze vessel feet from Černčice, Rozběřice, and an unknown site which belong to the category of Mediterranean imports are discussed – along with other representatives of Late Republican toreutics – also from the point of view of the La Tène period and the Early Roman Iron Age occupation. The find from Bolehošť, on the other hand, represents an unparalleled applique in the shape of a stylised bull head whose rendition corresponds with the West La Tène artistic approach.

The article focuses on quadrangular ditch enclosures at the La Tène period cemeteries in Bohemia and Moravia. The starting points for the analysis are recently excavated and evaluated enclosures from two archaeological sites. Three enclosures, one surrounding a robbed burial pit, were excavated at Lochenice, Hradec Králové district. Based on radiocarbon dating, they can be dated to the LTA/B1 or LTB2b – C1a period. The second case is represented by a partially robbed double grave with an enclosure from Nebovidy, Kolín district. It can be dated using the same method to the broader LTB – C1/C2 period. As a part of the evaluation, data on thirty-four similar features registered at fifteen sites with proven or probable links to burial activities from various parts of the La Tène period were analysed. Their formal and metric characteristics, chronology issues, and geographical distribution are examined in particular. Associated graves and burials documented in less than half of the cases are evaluated too. The results show chronological and, in some aspects, formal differences between these structures known from the Czech and Moravian territories. The discussion focuses in a broader context on the background of these differences and the possible role and construction form of quadrangular enclosures recorded within the working area.

The article deals with the cultural and spatial evaluation of new finds of the eastern type from the Hallstatt and Early La Tène periods discovered in the previous five years in Eastern Bohemia. The main point of our interest was to provide the complex overview of these finds, focused mainly on the provenience, chronological aspect and possible interpretations of their occurrence in Bohemia. Based on a detailed analysis of finds of the eastern type from the whole Bohemia, it was possible in terms of their origin to determinate four groups of finds, including those of the Vekerzug culture, and re-evaluate the chronological framework of the researched issues as well as interpretive aspects of their occurrence not only in Bohemia, but also in the broader Central European context. The occurrence of finds of the eastern type in Bohemia shows similar tendencies as in the neighbouring regions of the Eastern Hallstatt culture, especially in Moravia.
