A kitchen from the Hussite era


The website of Radio Prague International has a report about the excavation of a kitchen of a house at Novy Jičin in eastern Moravia. The house was probably destroyed in 1427 by a Hussite raid. The kitchen with its utensils has been preserved as a time capsule rather like the houses at Pompeii. In this Moravian case the household appears to have been that of a typical burgher family.
