Early Roman Period Ceramic Spoons from the Territory of Bohemia and Their Relation to Migrations at the Turn of the Late La Tine and the Roman Period

Ceramic spoons are well known since early prehistory, though their occurence in Iron Age of Central Europe is re-stricted to the area of Jastorf Culture and derivated cultural groups. In this paper, a small number of this artefacts is presented, which come from the Early Roman Period settlement Mlekojedy and other sites in Bohemia as well. Almost all of them could be interpreted as signs of migrations from the late Jastorf Culture area into the Late La Tene Period or representatives of quickly evolving and dispersing Gro & beta;romstedt Culture at the turn of Late La Tene and Early Roman Periods.
