Causewayed Enclosure in Bohemia

Region around the town Hradec Králové is rich for archaeological locations and also is now becoming known for exceptional dense presence of neolithic circles. Overwhelming majority of these monuments can only be seen from the air and just a few is noticeable when observing from surface because of intensive agriculture activity lasting for centuries.

Rondel Na Výsluní in the Holohlavy village is a ring ditch, built in period of Stroked Pottery culture (about 5000 BC) near the neolithic settlement and is one of the first discovered in whole area. Ditches of the circle has a V shape and is interrupted by four gateways roughly towards cardinal points.

The fact is that there is nothing much to be seen these days. But the site is well signposted as a stopover of the "prehistoric archeo cycling-trail".
