Archaeologists have uncovered a Neolithic settlement in Dobren, near Kutná Hora. This site, inhabited by the region’s earliest farmers during the early Stone Age, provides insight into life in the Czech lands seven thousand years ago.

The excavations in Dobren revealed the floor plans of four longhouses and nearby pits, which were utilized for clay extraction and as ancient disposal areas, containing shards of pottery, various stone tools and utensils.
