Description The article offers a discussion of the new Funnel Beaker chronology proposed by M. Šmíd et al. (2021) based on the modelling of radiocarbon dates coming mainly from burial sites. The review deals with both the theoretical approach to the study of prehistoric societies, the method of selecting radiocarbon data, the method of modelling radiocarbon data and the absence of discussion in a situation that easily fosters it. The conclusion presents the actual concept of the chronology of pottery groups connected with the Funnel Beakers, with two chronological stages being defined – the Baalberge and Boleráz, whereas the ‘pre-Baalberge’ stage has more of a social than chronological dimension.
