| Annotation: | The main aim of the GameTable network is to create an international and interdisciplinary network of scholars and stakeholders from all career stages across academia, industry, and heritage institutions to inspire methodologies and applications on how to use game AI to study, reconstruct, and preserve the intangible cultural heritage of games. More holistic methodologies will be achieved by developing more human-like AI techniques, using them to analyse mathematical properties of games, and combining them with gametheoretic models, and guiding them with knowledge of games of the past and a cross-cultural understanding of human gameplay. |

| Annotation: | What was daily life like in the European Bronze Age? In contrast to large-scale narratives based on artefacts, often prestige items from funerary contexts, this project focuses on the practices of daily domestic life, recorded in the sediments upon which it took place. These constitute the domestic stratigraphic record. This project, therefore, shifts the scale and the object of archaeological investigation, and aims at bringing interdisciplinary scientific analyses into dialogue with anthropological understandings of lifeways and households. Its main objective is the formulation of an innovative narrative of the Bronze Age addressing social, economic, and environmental aspects of a culturally interconnected region of Europe. The daily practices and life histories of bronze age people will be the pixels of this new picture that challenges previous depersonalized narratives relying on material culture. The region between the Carpatho-Danubian basin, the Balkans, and northern Italy was selected due to its important cultural interactions during the Bronze Age. Ten key archaeological sites in six European countries constitute the project’s database. Its innovative interdisciplinary approach integrates geoarchaeology (micro-stratigraphic analysis), organic chemistry (biomarkers) and archaeo-botany (phytoliths, seeds, fruits, and charcoal) to reconstruct with unprecedented accuracy the daily practices from domestic stratigraphy. This information will be compared with the story told by material culture and integrated with local paleo-environmental records. The project, in fact, challenges also previous reconstructions that called in environmental mega-events (volcanic eruptions, glacial advances, aridity events) to aprioristically explain broad cultural phenomena of the Bronze Age. Their inherent complexity can only be faced by crystallizing detailed micro-histories and site-specific environmental reconstructions into a broader synthesis based on hard scientific data. |

| Annotation: | The shelter project will deal with the important topic of climatic change and human response to it. An example of the environmental changearound the Pleistocene/Holocene transition is the most recent event, which can help us to catch regional differences of this global issue. Alarger scale and comparison within Central Europe is necessary. Karstic areas are present in all V4 countries, so they form a potential for acomparative dataset on a central European scale. Under the rock shelters and in the caves are usually well-preserved palaeoenvironmentaland archaeological records, so they are ideal places to study human-environment interactions within climatic change. Within the project willbe done excavations of two sites: the rockshelter (Skalice u Měňan (CZ) and the cave (Veľká ružínska (SK). From both are known well-preserved situations with archaeological and palaeoenvironmental record. This excavation will aim to collect new data, but even moreimportant will be to link what we know about the environment itself (phytolith analysis, charcoal, malacozoological, macroremain analyses)with the information on how did people used natural resources, especially plants (phytolith and starch analyses of the microremains on thetools and use-wear analysis). Fieldwork should also serve to form an international research group focused on the topic of karsticarchaeology. Another important point will be to disseminate information about the necessary protection of these sites and their actual way ofresearch between the general public, students, and semi-professional speleologists. |

PhDr. Horváthová Eva PhD. |
| Annotation: | The project is focused on prospecting and investigation of selected tumuli from the turn of the Eneolithic and the Bronze Age which are located in the territory of the Východoslovenská nížina basin and the southern part of the Ondavská vrchovina mountains. The investigation will include archival sources and finds from older excavations. The goal of the project is to obtain new information from molecular genetics, radiocarbon, strontium, petrographic, archaeozoological and other analyses which will contribute to better assessment of the archaeological material from the studied tumuli. The obtained data will also be useful for solving geographically and culturally more general topics associated with the study of chronology, genesis, steppe elements and direct impacts of the Yamnaya and Corded Ware cultures in the regions of the Northern Tisza territory in the 3rd millenium BC. The concept of the project also follows from the cooperation with the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Archaeology of SAS which took place in the 1990s. |
Land-use and social change in the Iron Age in the Carpathian Basin

| Project leader: |
Mgr. Benediková Lucia PhD. |
| Annotation: | During the last decades landscape archaeology has evolved to a complex theoretical paradigm dealing with the dynamic interactions
between past communities and environment. Different communities created, used, and manipulated different landscapes according to
their own beliefs, concepts, practices and histories, often within the same physical environment. Understanding them requires a shift
from single site-centred investigations to regional or micro-regional ones, which are able to reveal patterns and trends related to
settlement ecology, economic strategies, ritual or ideological interactions with the environment, or networks and human mobility.
Major disruptions in the socio-political, demographic or ecological conditions always affected the human – environment interactions,
leading to significant land-use changes.
The Carpathian Basin offers a relevant case-study due to its particular geography and demographic and cultural history which
contributed to the appearance of several micro-regions. During the Iron Age, the successive arrival of different population groups
influenced the human – environment interactions, leading to the emergence of particular land-use practices. Project proposes an
innovative approach, aiming to investigate and compare systematically the ways in which different communities from the Carpathian
Basin interacted with the environment, creating, using and manipulating specific landscapes throughout the Iron Age. The identified
patterns and trends will be compared to discuss the ways in which different landscapes and land-use practices were transformed
through time, as well as the interplay between these transformations and the shifts in local and regional social dynamics. The studies
will be based on a multi-disciplinary approach involving analytical methods from several sciences. |
