The text addresses early medieval castles in the central part of Bohemia – the territory connected with the beginning of the Přemyslid dynasty and the origins of the early Czech state. We first deal with the dating of the castles, mostly on the basis of archaeological sources. The chronology of these buildings has been elaborated significantly in recent years. We then use this summarized information to produce a brief sketch of the development of the castles, which we then attempt to place in a general historical framework. The conclusion offers a comparison of this new information with existing concepts of the "Přemyslid domain," which, in our opinion, requires substantial revision.
