The content of an antiquarian collection, drinking horns and archaeological potential of a perished site Sandberk by Kolín

Publication at Faculty of Arts |

Abstract

This article deals with an ensemble of artifacts kept in private collection in Kolín. It presumably comes from an authentic site at the outskirts of city of Kolín and so it appeared in regional literature.

An stylistic analysis shown in this article though revealed, that this assumption is highly disputable. It is more probably "just" a collection of artefacts with various history.

The second part of the article deals with a find of complete drinking horn mounting from the site Sandberg located on the eastern side of Kolín. This site is presently completely destroyed by sand pits.
