Raně středověké přilby, zbroje a štíty z českých zemí

Abstract

Diplomová práce si klade za cíl předložit katalog raně středověkých příleb, zbrojí a štítů z Českých zemí, který v naší literatuře dosud chybí.

This situation is quite understandable. Weapons and spurs are from the chronological point of view much more sensitive than fragments of armours, helmets or shields. If there is any notice in literature made about fragment of any armour, it is usually only saying that this discovery was made. Fragment of the ringlet armour from Olomouc can be used as an example to illustrate fact mentioned previously (Bláha 2001, 59, obr. 11:6). J. Kudrnáč was the last one who tried to summarize in his dissertation thesis knowledge about the Hillfort period armour and weapons (Kudrnáč 1948). Before him, Salvonic protective armour was studied by...
