(223360) Švankmajer is an asteroid of the outer main belt , which was discovered on September 16, 2003 at the Kleť Observatory ( IAU code 046) near Český Krumlov . The discovery took place in the context of the KLENOT project ( IAU code 246), a systematic sky survey with the local KLENOT telescope with a mirror diameter of 1.06 m.

The asteroid is in a 4 + 1-2- orbital resonance with Jupiter and Saturn .

The mean distance from the Sun ( major semiaxis ), eccentricity and inclination of the orbit plane of (223360) Švankmajer roughly correspond to the Eos family , a group of asteroids that typically have major semiaxes of 2.95 to 3.1 AU , bounded inward by the Kirkwood gap the 7: 3 resonance with Jupiter, as well as orbital inclinations between 8 ° and 12 °. The group is named after the asteroid (221) Eos . The family is believed to have emerged from a collision more than a billion years ago.

(223360) Švankmajer was named on November 14, 2016 after the Czech surrealist filmmaker and draftsman Jan Švankmajer .
