Abstract
This contribution focuses on the assessment of the results of three seasons of archaeological research into a battlefield near Lipany (Kolín district). The project, conceived as an interdisciplinary one, sought to specify information about the site and the course of a military clash between Hussite radicals and the coalition of Catholics and moderate Utraquists on 30 May 1434.
Another objective was to provide effective archaeological heritage care for the potentially endangered site attracting illicit metal detecting. The project was based on the terrain identification and documentation of the battlefield with the use of both standard and new documentation methods.
