Some of the settlements of the Funnel Beaker culture located...

... of the settlements that is linked to the extraction of banded flint in Krzemionki Opatowskie is the settlement of the FBC in Stryczowice, site 1. The site is located in the Sandomierz Upland, on the plateau of the loess upland, between the Garbutka and the Kamionka rivers (Fig. 8). It was discovered in 1970 by Jerzy Tomasz Bąbel (Bąbel 1975, 539). The excavations were carried out in the years 1976-1985 (with breaks for 7 seasons) on behalf of the State Archaeological Museum in Warsaw by Anna Uzarowicz-Chmielewska. Over 17 ares were examined, including 32 settlements features (Uzarowicz-Chmielewska and Sałacińska ...

Although many Palaeolithic open-air sites are known on the foothills of the Bükk Mountains near Eger, Andornaktálya-Marinka was only discovered in 2014 thanks to new vine plantations on a hilltop. It was prospected regularly until 2019, and a test excavation was carried out in 2018. The archaeological material consists of a few undiagnostic prehistoric ceramic sherds and daub fragments, and 1706 stone artefacts. Except two fragments of polished axes, the lithic assemblage contains knapped stones. The paper presents the analysis of the lithic assemblage. This demonstrates the characteristics of an ‘older’ flake industry using almost exclusively local and regional raw materials, and those of a ‘younger’ blade industry working with long-distance ‘northern’ flints. The ‘older’ can be attributed to the Middle Palaeolithic Bábonyian, while the ‘younger’ should be related to Early Upper Palaeolithic Aurignacian or even to a Late Neolithic or Copper Age occupation.
