The Institute of Archaeology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (founded in 1939) is a modern workplace that currently employs more than 70 professional and scientific staff – archaeologists, but also colleagues from several collaborating natural science disciplines. For more information about the department, see www. sav.sk\/Science groups\/Historical sciences\/Institute of Archaeology; www. archeol.sav.sk.<\/p>\n
The Institute is an independent education centre for three (Constantine The Philosopher University in Nitra) and four-year (Comenius university, Bratislava) studies in external and internal mode in the field of archaeology in conjunction with several Slovak universities. Upon successful graduation, the doctoral student receives the title “Philosophiae doctor” (PhD.) Currently, internal doctoral students receive a tax-free scholarship of 807 \u20ac per month during the first part of study and 940 \u20ac per month after a successful dissertation examination.\u00a0 Doctoral students supervised by renowned supervisors have good working conditions at the institute and are usually immediately involved in research projects, which improves their communication in the research area, work mobility and material and technical equipment.<\/p>\n
The thesis topics offered are based on the needs of contemporary archaeological research in the Central European area and can be a good start to systematic scientific work for their future researchers.<\/p>\n

PhDr. \u013dubom\u00edra Kaminsk\u00e1, DrSc.<\/p>\n Receiving school: <\/strong>Comenius university Bratislava<\/strong><\/p>\n The aim of PhD. thesis is analyze of lithic assemblages from the late stage of the Upper Paleolithic (final phase of the Late Gravettien, Epigravettien, Epiaurignacian, Magdalenian) from excavations carried out mainly in eastern Slovakia (Ka\u0161ov, Cejkov, Hr\u010de\u013e, Ve\u013eaty, Kysta etc.), in north-eastern Hungary and Transcarpathian Ukraine. The key site is Ka\u0161ov I. Typological-technological analyze of assemblages is necessary as well as verify chronological-stratigraphic position using available information from the preserved research documentation of PhDr. L. B\u00e1nesz, DrSc. and supplement the existing knowledge about settlement, hunting and economic strategies of Paleolithic hunters in the background of climate change. The result of a critical comparison of the analyzed industries will create a model of occupation by individual cultural groups, their mutual influence and contacts in the period after the Last Glacial Maximum.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2.\u00a0<\/strong>Topic:\u00a0 <\/strong>Central hillfort of the P\u00fachov culture Liptovsk\u00e1 Mara – Havr\u00e1nok.

The hill was fortified and used as an important sacrificial place from the Middle La T\u00e9ne to the beginning of the Roman period. The topic will also include a look at the reconstruction of selected archaeological objects and the use of the site for cultural tourism.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3.\u00a0<\/strong>Topic:<\/strong>\u00a0Early medieval hoard finds from Middle Danubian Region\u201c<\/p>\n Name of the supervisor:<\/strong>\u00a0Mgr.

The aim would be to collect and compare the typological development of heating devices (open hearths, fireplaces, furnaces, hypocausts ?) and to compare the art-historical development of tile stoves at selected sites in both areas, to verify the hypothesis of the manifestation of Eastern and Nordic influences on the development of heating devices in Hungary.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 6.\u00a0<\/strong>Topic:<\/strong>\u00a0Settlement Structure of Lower Hron and Ipe\u013e Regions between Neolithic and Iron Age in light of human interactions with landscape\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n Name of the supervisor:<\/strong>\u00a0prof.

Both regions very much differentiate in respect of their geomorphology. Consequently, the aim of dissertation should be, beside the identification of cultural changes, settlement structure and dynamics in this area, to analyse changes arisen due to human influence on landscape and surrounding natural environment. Dissertation will require a broader interdisciplinary cooperation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 7.\u00a0<\/strong>Topic:<\/strong>\u00a0Militaria and battle tactics in the Urnfield Period in the north of the Carpathian Basin<\/p>\n Name of the supervisor:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0PhDr. Vladim\u00edr Mit\u00e1\u0161, PhD.<\/p>\n Receiving school: <\/strong>Constantine The Philosopher University in Nitra<\/strong><\/p>\n Militaria and battle tactics in the Urnfield Period in the north of the Carpathian Basin.
