Description Evidence of early medieval metallurgy in the central part of the Moravian Karst has increased significantly in recent years. Dozens of newly identified metallurgical sites, many of which remain undated or only roughly dated, are creating pressure for their systematic cataloguing, description, and the standardised collection of data to enable more precise typological and chronological classification. The paper presents the activities of the research team, focusing in particular on refining the localisation of archaeological remains and on their absolute dating using the radiocarbon method. Based on the initial results, the possibilities and limitations of radiocarbon dating of early medieval ironworking remains are discussed.
