Description There are described silicite axes made of banded Krzemionki silicite and spotted Świeciechów silicite that were found in Moravia. The axes of the banded silicite are linked with the Globular Amphora Culture when the axes made of the spotted silicite can be assign to the Corded Ware Culture. They represent imported artefacts from central Poland on a distance of roughly 300 - 400 km.
