The authors want to test the hypothesis of non-random location preferences in individual archaeological periods in relation to several geomorphological characteristics of the landscape. If this hypothesis is correct, the locational preferences could be seen as displaying important aspects of past human behaviour with wider economic, social and symbolic implications. Also, we test the potential of GIS (PC ARC/INFO) for this kind of problem and provide the first application in Czech archaeology. The territory of the Vinorsky potok project (190 km2) was studied by a fieldwalking survey with all available earlier finds and sites being reclassified. This made it possible to build up a relatively reliable body of evidence for past settlement distributions reaching probably far beyond a 50 per cent sample of the existing settlement remains.
