Description The paper offers a preliminary summary of results of a monitoring excavation at Hrubá Vrbka (tract of land Za Bařinou) performed in August 2009, which proved at this recently discovered site settlement areas from the Late La Tene and Roman Periods. Main attention was paid to a partly unearthed manufacturing area represented above all by a firing device which most probably served for the manufacture of burnt lime. Aside from that, several other Roman Period features were preliminarily evaluated. Finding material acquired during the monitoring excavation consists mainly of pottery and small chronologically inconclusive objects, which enable to date most of the examined features to the end of the Early Roman Period. The expert analyses, both done and in progress (chemical, palaeobotanical and osteological), will help to recognise not only the economy but also environment in the Roman Period of SE Moravia.
