| Description | The article presents the results of geophysical surveys at occupation sites at the southeastern tip of Moravia, with a special focus on early medieval settlement components. The multicultural nature of the surveyed sites is used as the basis for contemplations on the testimonial possibilities of archaeophysical investigations concerning matters of dating and the interpretation of located features and the structure of settlement as a whole. The influence of the subsoil is discussed. A higher level of attention is devoted to the Kostice – Zadní hrúd 1 site, where a comparative analysis of data from an archaeological excavation, aerial survey, surface collections, a magnetic and ground-penetrating radar investigation, and measurements of magnetic susceptibility in open find situations was conducted. |
