The Jurassic cherts from the area of today's Bavaria represent a significant phenomenon which, unlike other phenomena, penetrates the Bohemian prehistoric cultural environment from the west. Although these raw materials have been used in the territory of Bohemia continuously at least from the Upper Paleolithic period to the Early Eneolithic, it is possible to observe different trends both in terms of supply amount, and in the preference for individual varieties.
The presented paper offers an overview of the current state of source materials, and also forms conclusions on this basis.
