A probe into the spiritual life of prehistoric people, a reflection of shamanism in archaeology etc.). This grave Brno 2 is dated to the Gravettian / oldest Pavlovian period. Historically valuable graves come from Moravia from the Gravettian / Pavlovian (Dőlni Véstonice III, XIII-XV, Pavlov etc.). The primacy of processing terracotta anthropomorphic and zoomorphic statuettes has the habitats, settlements, of mammoth hunters from the Gravettian / Pavlovian especially at Dőlni Véstonice I and Pavlov I, Breclav district (southern Moravia) and Predmosti at Prerov (central Moravia, Czech Republic). It is remarkable that some of the pieces have been modelled and then deliberately destroyed. Traces of violent breaking, holes of sharp artefacts, and cutting are visible on their surface (FIG. 4). We deduce that these statuettes were meaningful only for a certain moment and that these statues were part of the ritual behaviour of hunters of the upper Palaeolithic (Jelinek 1972, 351, Fig. 565; Svoboda 1999, 184). The destruction of hunted animal statuettes species could mean successful hunting. "Command" staffs (of chiefs) Very interesting is the issue of the so-called command or chief staffs of the Magdalenian. These are artefacts mostly from with one, less often with two bored regular circular openings at the opposite end against the handle. These artefacts are mostly carefully decorated on the side with a hole, and are therefore included in the framework of the so-called upper Palaeolithic art. These are highly decorated tools with a carefully carved motif at the top over the handle. Meaning of these staffs is being considered for a long time. The oldest explanation is hidden in their name as sticks, symbolic attributes of hunting group chiefs. The second view is based on one of the important elements of this tool, which is a carefully drilled hole Fig. 7. Horákov, Brno-venkov district, south Moravia.
