The end of one era and the rise of another is one of the most complicated and one of the least inspected periods of prehistory. The gradual rise of a new era characterised among others by the use of a new sort of metal (the alloy of copper and tin) was essentialy continuous in many aspects to the innovation of certain categories (changes in settlement structure, in burial rite, in fashion, in costume parts etc.). The influence of the two preceding beaker cultures is not clear, but the roots are found in that period; the impulses from the more advanced south-east regions (Carpathian/Pannonian Basin: Makó/Kosihy-Ćaka, Somogyvár-Vinkovci, Nagyrév culture) seem decisive. The bearer of the initial phase of the Bronze Age (newly formulated horizon "A0") is the proto-Únětice culture on the western bank of the Morava river and the beginnings of the Epi-Corded Carpathian complex east of the Morava river, and the components contemporary to these two (the genesis of the Únětice culture). The bipolarity of development with many differences, but also with common traits is notable in Moravia almost in the whole early Bronze Age. A description of this process with all characteristics and epiphenomena, including absolute chronology is the topic of this subject.
