Abstract

In the autumn of 2017 Institute for Archaeological Heritage in cooperation with Museum of the South-East Moravia, Masaryk University and Palacký University Olomouc realized prospection with metal detectors in the locality of 'Rysov' near Provodov. The archaeological research itself was caused by the need to find out its archaeological potential, because the site has been damaged by amateur 'treasure hunters' for a long time.

According to available information these activities have been going on here since the late 1980s. The research also included practical lessons for archaeology students of Palacký University who exercise to work with metal detectors in the field and document context of discoveries.
