Soil properties reflect a host of environmental conditions and land-use patterns. Formation of cultural landscapes may well be studied at barrow cemeteries, which give the opportunity of comparing the properties of buried soils, the material building the mounds and the present-day soil cover. Current archaeo-pedological research on Late Neolithic l...

In the spring of 2017, amateur metal detectorists discovered a Late Bronze Age hoard near the village of Kaliska, Poland. Comprising over 120 artefacts, it is one of the most impressive Bronze Age finds within Pomerania. The authors discuss the hoard's contents and context, as well as its chronology.
A new Polish project, the first to be carried out in Ethiopia by the PCMA University of Warsaw, focused on the excavation of the ruins of a church tentatively dated to the Late Aksumite period (6th–8th centuries AD). The site, which is located in the northern region of Tigray in Ethiopia, was chosen for multiple reasons, not the least because of it...

Two earthen mounds, trapezoid in shape, oriented along the W-E/NW-SE axis and located in prominent landscape positions, were recently discovered in the Głubczyce Forest in the loess area of the Głubczyce Plateau (SW Poland). Their resemblance to long-barrows of the Funnel Beaker culture, as yet unknown in this part of Silesia prompted low-invasive...
In 2019 a research team from the Institute of Archaeology of the University of Wrocław excavated relics of a watermill, probably built in the second half of the 18th c., in the village of Bystrzyca (German Wiesenthal) near the town of Wleń in Pogórze Kaczawskie (German Bober-Katzbach-Vorgebirge), part of the Western Sudetes. A schematic picture of...
The volume presents results of two-year project : multi-aspect analysis of four late Bronze Age deposits placed in ceramic vessels and containing metal tools, weapons and ornaments.

From around 2750 to 2500 BC, Bell Beaker pottery became widespread across western and central Europe, before it disappeared between 2200 and 1800 BC. The forces that propelled its expansion are a matter of long-standing debate, and there is support for both cultural diffusion and migration having a role in this process. Here we present genome-wide...
Successful fieldwork in a tropical forest requires both a comprehensive preparatory scenario as well as a framework of everyday methods. Dense vegetation impedes navigating the terrain and interpreting the relations between the anthropogenic and natural landscapes. Additionally, the forest hampers using accurate measurement systems, such as GNSS an...
Monumentalne założenie w Pietrowicach Wielkich (stan. 13, woj. śląskie) zostało zidentyfikowane w 2011 r. dzięki obecności wyróżnika glebowego na jednym z ogólnie dostępnych zobrazowań satelitarnych. Charakteryzuje się ono obecnością systemu dwóch, koncentrycznych rowów, z których zewnętrzny ma średnicę ok. 155-180 a wewnętrzny ok. 110-120 m. Szero...
Rejon Radłowic (gm. Domaniów, pow. oławski, woj. dolnośląskie) od dawna zwracał uwagę archeologów obecnością bogatego i zróżnicowanego osadnictwa obejmującego różne fazy pradziejów i średniowiecza.

An increasingly important role in the study of prehistoric cultural landscapes is played nowadays by various methods of non-invasive archaeological prospection, such as aerial photography, remote sensing, airborne laser scanning and terrestrial geophysical surveying. In Polish archaeology, which has pioneered in many aspects the use of aerial photo...
The site of Szczepankowice, situated 24 kilometres southwest of Wrocław is considered to be one of the most important for studies of the Early Bronze Age in Central Europe. In this paper we present a new assessment of the archaeological potential of the Szczepankowice (sites 1–4) and the surrounding area, based on research including metal detecting...
Archaeological excavation made at Bilshivci in the years 2006–2011 was of sondage type, connected with construction works of destroyed monastery and covered 16 archaeological trenches. In spite of its limited spatial extend the investigation revealed evidence on several occupation
episodes of different character, much greater than was suggested by...

Grodziska średniowieczne stanowią niezwykle cenne zabytki dziedzictwa archeologicznego. Są świadectwem rozwiniętej organizacji społecznej, zmieniających się granic plemiennych i państwowych, miejscem rozgrywania się wydarzeń o zasięgu ponadregionalnym, zarówno tych anonimowych, jak i znanych ze źródeł historycznych. Opuszczone fortyfikacje, widoczn...
Medieval strongholds are outstanding monuments of archaeological heritage. They are evidence of developed social organisation, shifting tribal and state boundaries and places where events of an above-regional significance happened – both the anonymous ones as well as those known from historical sources. Their location in the landscape was determine...
Dzięki nowoczesnym sposobom dokumentowania powierzchni ziemi z wykorzystaniem lotniczego skanowania laserowego (LiDAR) możliwe jest uzyskanie nowych danych zwłaszcza dla stanowisk o własnej formie terenowej, w tym m.in. na obszarach pokrytych lasami. Poster prezentuje wyniki analizy danych dla znanych oraz nowo odkrytych stanowisk, na których ślady...
In early 2010 the district of Wrocław between Komandorska, Piłsudskiego and Bogusławskiego streets came under an archaeological rescue excavation.
