TACHOVIEN - new prehistoric discovery locality
Dear readers.
It would be my great pleasure to offer you brief information about
the discovery of heretofore unknown prehistoric archeological
location in the area of the Czech Republic.
In the field area not far from the West Czech town Tachov a
prehistoric center of processing of caught animals was discovered.
The morphology and the character of stone tools obtained by surface
collection so far shows their paleolithic origin. Most likely the
Gravettian era or even older era. The dating of the discovery was
not yet reliably verified. The location is very exceptional because
of the number of prehistoric industrial artefacts. But there are
also other aspects in the existing discovery which seem to be
exceptional taking into consideration the knowledge about the
development in the Central Europe in the late paleolithic period.
Therefore I assume that publication of the acquired information even
in the current stage of yet primal and with difficulties
interpretable discoveries from the locality of Tachov will attract
the attention of the experts as well as lay public.
