| Description | The discovery of the torso of an industrial textile dyeing plant in 2018 marks the beginning of systematic industrial archeology in Brno. The discovery of an unidentifiable industrial relic at the time drew attention to a new area of interest. Thanks to the excavation of other dyeing establishments (Vlněna and Dornych in Brno, Úštěk in the Ústecký kraj), the learning and research curve in this area was very steep, which led to a relatively quick understanding and now complex treatment of the Brno dyeing establishments. The paper describes the challenges that arose at the beginning of the research, presents the benefits of interdisciplinary research, and shows progress over four years of research using the example of heating devices. Subsequently, current research outputs will be presented (including a 3D reconstruction of the excavated dyehouses). At the end, the question of prediction of further finds and preventive protection of archaeological finds of an industrial nature is briefly addressed. |
