Ancient Settlement in Moravia. Masovice is a significant archaeological site where remains of
prehistoric settlements as well as a high number of artifacts have
been found. Among other rarities from the locality is the 'Masovice
rondel,' of which a double circular ditch with a 110 metres in
diameter has been preserved. It served as a ritual place and possibly
as a calendar.
Czech archaeologists have uncovered a torso of a unique female statue created about 7,000 years ago near Masovice (Czech Republic), which is the second similar find in this locality.
