Geocache Description:


NIMRODSKY RINGVAL

Tato jednoducha kes Vas privede do casti chranene krajinne oblasti Slavkovsky les v kopcich nad Marianskymi Laznemi, do mist kde vede historicka kupecka stezka, zvana Kralovska. Na uvedenych souradnicich mimo kese naleznete také terenni ukaz nazyvany ringval(na miste samotnem je oznaceno jako Straziste. A protoze blizko tohoto mista se jeste v nedavne minulosti nachazela vyhlasena vyletni kavarna NIMROD, je tento ukaz pojmenovan Nimrodsky ringval.

K jeho objeveni a zdokumentovani prispel pred nekolika desitky let (1976) pan Bohumil Broukal z Melnika, ktery inicioval vlastivedna patrani vseho druhu, v terenu, v knihovnach, v archivech, nebot byl presvedceny o tom, ze prastara stezka Via Regia pres Slavkovsky les je keltskeho puvodu a ringvaly na této ceste mohly slouzit kupcum a obchodnim karavanam k prenocovani, resp. jako straziste. Stredoveky puvod tohoto místa potvrdil pri svém archeologickem pruzkumu téz dr. Pavel Sebesta z Chebu. Dalsim pruzkumem, ktery provedl Zdenek Buchtele, byly archeologickou sondou v miste ringvalu nalezeny ploche kameny, snad jakési dlazdeni a dale nekolik strepu stredovekeho puvodu.

Ucel a puvod ringvalu zustal dosud zahadou a proto existuje vice hypotez. Ringval nad Nimrodem ma prumer ostruvku 12 metru, sirku prikopu na hrebenech 9 metru, hloubku prikopu 2,3 metru a dno prikopu cca 4 metry. Vnejsi kruhovy val ma v prumeru 30 metru. Tyto male rozmery ringvalu vedou k domnence, zda nejde jen o straziste pri stezce, proto oznacení "kruhové straziste". Rozryte okoli v bazinatem terenu potvrzovalo, ze kdysi tu byl na stezce cily davny ruch. Odborná literatura ovsem udava, ze takovych ringvalu se naleza mnoho v prilehlych oblastech Saska (Vogtlandu), Bavorska, ale i na Assku. Rozmery jsou ruzne, vzhled tyz;. Kruhovy val s prikopem a uprostred ostruvek. Nekde je jste prikop naplnen vodou.

A ted jak se dostat na misto ulozeni: Na uvodiních souradnicich je turisticky rozcestnik pro cervene znacenou turistickou stezku. Z tohoto rozcestniku zjistite následujici udaje A = vyska mista Straziste v metrech nad morem, B = vzdalenost ke Strazisti v metrech. Nyni uz staci jen dosadit zjistene udaje do následujiciho vzorce N50° 01.A-460, E012° 42.770+B

AN / NIMRODSKY RINGVAL

This simple cache will bring you to the protected area of the Slavkov Forest in the hills of Marianske Lazne, in places where the trail leads historic merchant, called "Royal". In those coordinates can also be found among the cache off phenomenon called "ringval" (on the site itself is marked as Stráziste). And because near this point is still found in the recent past, famous cruise cafe Nimrod, this phenomenon is termed "Nimrodsky ringval.

His discovery and documentation of donated several decades ago (1976) Mr. Bohumil Broukal from Melnik, who initiated the quest for natural history of all kinds - in the field, in libraries, archives, because he was convinced that the ancient Via Regia trail through the Slavkov Forest to ringvaly Celtic origin, and on this journey to serve buyers and trade caravans to stay overnight, respectively. as Stráziste. The medieval origins of the place confirme in his archaeological survey also dr. Paul Sebesta from Cheb. Another survey conducted by Zdenek Buchtel, the archaeological site ringvalu probe found flat stones and perhaps some cobbles and a few shards of medieval origin.

Ringvalu purpose and origin remain a mystery and so far there are several hypotheses. Ringval the Nimrod has a diameter of island 12-meter wide trench on the ridge of 9 meters, 2.3 meters deep trench and the bottom of the ditch about 4 feet. External circular mound has a diameter of 30 meters. These small dimensions ringvalu lead to believe that not only Stráziste the trail, thus marking the circular Stráziste. Rozryté around in a marshy field confirm that there once was an old trail gay tourism. The professional literature indicates, however, that such ringvalu, there are many in the surrounding areas of Saxony (Vogtland), Bavaria, but also Aš. The dimensions are different, look the same. A circular mound with a moat and island in the middle.Sometimes it is even a moat filled with water.

And now how to get to save the cache: The initial coordinates for the tourist signpost red tourist trail. From the crossroads you'll find the following information and Straziste = elevation in meters above sea level, B = distance in meters to Strázisti. Now I just need to install the data found in the following formula N50° 01.A-460, E012° 42.770+B
