The archaeological collection features findings from Central Bohemia, primarily from

 localities in the vicinity of the capital city in the Prague-West district, that document the

 development of culture in the region from the Neolithic Period to the Middle Ages. Recent

 excavations of disappearing localities have resulted in findings from the middle Bronze

 Age, the Roman Empire and the Migration Period, which was only a marginal factor here.

 While the archaeological collection was original assembled by amateur archaeologists and

 the museum’s founders, and supplemented with collections from schools and private

 collectors, since the 1990s it has undergone a qualitative change with increasing

 conservation field work. The collection is now dominated by findings from excavations of

 settlements and burial sites from the New Stone Age to the Migration Period (Černý Vůl,

 Roztoky, Velké Přílepy, Úholičky, Statenice, Tuchoměřice, Libčice n/Vlt., Hostivice), and by

 findings from the Early Middle Ages (Levý Hradec, Roztoky, Radětice, Bášť) and the Late

 Middle Ages to the Modern Age (Okoř, Velké Přílepy). The collection comprises

 approximately 240 000 items.
