Abstract
The article summarises current knowledge of the settlement on Kyje promontory (departement of Prague 14, part of Staré Kyje) and its surroundings from prehistoric to modern times and presents in this context the results of the archaeological excavation of the cemetery at St. Bartholomew's Church, undertaken in 1995.
The main prehistoric settlement of the promontory dates to the Middle and Late Bronze Age, with continuity to the La Tène period. Since intact features occurred only marginally, the article focuses on the analysis of the artefacts.
The second part of the article assesses the excavation of the cemetery from the 2nd half (3rd third) of the 18th up to the 1st half of the 19th centuries. The most interesting finds were revealed in the grave of an elderly woman with two crosses, preserved remnants of a prayer book, a scapular (?) and shoes.
