Abstract
Konejl´s cave (k. ú. Bělá u Turnova, PR Kokočské rocks) was explored by 4 probes
in August 2010 and July 2011. We registered at least 5 horizons in 15 levels
(mechanical layer, thickness 10 cm). Levels 1 and 2 go back from present day to
VS2 epoch. Level 3 is identified as acontact layer between high middle ages epoch
and early Iron Age (dating of VS1/2 – VS2). Levels 4 to 6 cohere with the early Iron
Age (Lt C2-D1). Next levels 7 to 9 are assigned to wide time period ranging from
Mesolithe to older/middle Bronze Age of level 7. This period was not registered
in artefacts, radiocarbon date 1875 – 1665 BC) originated from level 7. We linked
the lowest levels (10 to 15) to Mesolithe, it was proven not only by discovered
industry, but by radiocarbon dating too (8225 – 7945 BC). It is actually the oldest
Mesolithic date in Český ráj. New discoveries were brought by archeobotanical and
archeozoological research.
