DNA tests to determine dynastic history of the Premyslids

DNA tests on the remains of 19 bodies thought to belong to the noble family of Premyslids will be used to determine who is who. The Premyslids founded the Bohemian Kingdom and ruled the country for 400 years. The first historical record of the Premyslids dates back to 872. The DNA project involves a 15-strong multi-disciplinary team of scientists and archeologists and is expected to take three to four years to complete. Nothing similar has ever been attempted in the world to date.
