Abstracts

EN

For three Early Eneolithic copper artefacts (2 x cross-edged axe of the Jászladány type and one flat axe of the Rödigen type) from Moravia and Slovakia, previously published and stored in the collections of the Museum in Kroměříž, we have managed to clarify the location (Liptovský Mikuláš), the typochronology (flat axe of the Rödigen type) and to carry out a new XRF palaeometallurgical analysis. As a result, we found pure copper (E00) used in both cross-edged axes and arsenic copper of the Handlová type in the flat axe. The rarity of the artefacts is illustrated by the fact that in the case of the flat axe it is only the second or sixth specimen in Slovakia and Moravia. More numerous is the representation of cross-edged axes, where both finds represent the northern border of the core of distribution, which is the Balkan-Carpathian area. This is not the case for flat axes with a centre of occurrence more to the north-west (Moravia, Bohemia, and central Germany). All three objects can be dated to the Early Eneolithic and associated with the Jordan culture in Moravia and the Bodrogkeresztúr culture in Slovakia.
