Abstract
An important element to the future of archaeology in the ex-communist countries of central Europe will be the freeing of archaeological ideas from the constraints of a particular set of social theories built into the fabric of the state, as Milisauskas noted in the last ANTIQUITY (64: 283-5). This is a timely moment to look at the interference of a different set of social theories in the same region some decades ago.
