| Popis | This paper aims to answer the question, how the millet was adopted in the society of Tumulus culture. On an example of a complex analysis of the burial from the site Mikulov, Moravia, dated to the Middle Bronze Age and other examples of millet finds from the settlement features in region we will ask the social position of this new crop in the diet. During rescue archaeological excavation in 2018, a grave with stone chambers was found, in which two individuals were buried – a young male and a 13- to 14-year-old probably girl. We have realized a comprehensive analysis of the find, both the burial and typological context, analysis of radiocarbon data, anthropological, palaeopathological, and genetic analysis of these individuals, also analysis of their dietary habits and their local origin on the base of the stable isotope analysis. This is a possible starting point for our talk about the life of this couple. On the end we want to interpret their dietary habits in the context of other documented millet examples in Moravia and Slovakia. Findings of this cereal are documented by numerous archaeobotanical samples from layers and specific bulk finds as well as isotope analyses. |
