The article concerns the evaluation of the development changes and threats connected with the early medieval settlement complex in Giecz. Its authors strive for an attempt at answering the questions of how for hundreds of years the way of spatial development in the vicinities of the Giecz complex has been changing and what potential threats can be detected on the basis of the analysis of presented information. Introducing the issue, the authors rely on various supplies of data, which make an analysis of this kind considerably easier. The vast array of non-invasive methods enabling to investigate and comprehend the past of our lands has become more and more often a common practice in throughout Poland. The data that follows are presented and analyzed in relation to the discussed subject: the results of the surface survey conducted as a part of the Polish Archaeological Record (further: PAR, abbreviated in Polish as AZP), aerial photographs, spatial data (satellite imagery, orthophotomap, topographic map), historic maps as well as information obtained from the zoning plan of the commune within which the Giecz settlement complex is located. All the resources mentioned above were integrated by means of the GIS software. The authors point out the need of data integration in the context of national heritage protection and they also emphasize general access to information and software that facilitates the analysis of integrated data bases gained using a variety of non-invasive methods. The article presents the analysis of the development of the early medieval stronghold on the basis of data dated back to different times. It shows how an integration of this information in the GIS environment has eased the evaluation of infrastructure and buildings within the analyzed area. Numerous threats resulting from e.g. urban processes were put forward and attention was paid to direct factors influencing the security and condition of archaeological relics. These reflections were exemplified by specific cases provided with appropriate illustrative material. Phenomena like: intensive agriculture, illegal activity of detectorists, the draining of bogs and the regulation of river channels were recognized and described among the threats as well as ignoring the PAR data in land use plans. On the basis of existing materials the authors made a few demands which might be helpful in protecting the supplies of archaeological heritage on the presented example of the stronghold in Giecz. These suggestions, apart from stipulating the further need of non-invasive research, do not require considerable financial resources. One of the demands was for closer cooperation between archaeologists, the conservation and preservation service and civil servants responsible for the administration of a given area. The authors perceive also a need of standardization and dissemination of a specific way of integrating the information obtained by the use of various methods within the spatial data base. Data integrated accordingly to the point of view of restoration protection and archaeological interpretation are of immense value and enable protection much better than hitherto of non-renewable stores of national heritage.

This paper is the result of Polish and Romanian cooperative investigations of the funeral rites in the Bronze Age in Carpathian area. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of archaeological investigations from the Northern Moldavia where cemeteries of Komarov culture have been excavated since the 19th century. All data were compared with the results from Komarov sites in the Upper Dnister area of the Ukraine that date to the fi rst half of the 2nd millennium BC. The problem of how the Komarov culture has been classifi ed is investigated, specifi cally how the classifi cation of material culture and funeral practices have changed over time. The history of research in the northern Moldavia area is presented, followed by a description of Komarov cemeteries located in this area at the cemetery, grave, burial, and grave inventory levels. The graves and funeral rites in northern Moldavia and those in the Upper Dnister area and neighbouring regions are then comparatively analyzed.

This article evaluates the potential of magnetometry to establish the internal structure of three mounds in the barrow cemetery of Bukivna in the Upper Dniester River Basin in Ukraine.We also evaluate the effects of geomorphological processes on the magnetometric results. The three-stage research method we applied comprises the preparation of a digital elevation model of the mounds, conducting geomagnetic surveys and, finally, targeted excavations, the latter enabling the verification of previously detected magnetic anomalies. In effect our studies show exceptionally complex geophysical anomalies, difficult to interpret with any certainty. In the peculiar case of the barrows 6 and 7 in group I, partly connected by an earthen mantle, the overlapping magnetic fields did not allow the two mounds to be distinguished from each other; it was possible to achieve only through subsequent excavations. In both barrows, a series of ritual and sepulchral structures were discovered that provided clear magnetic signals. The arrangement of the anomalies in the mound 1, group II, potentially reflects various aspects of the barrow’s structure and its state of preservation, beginning with postdepositional processes related to erosion or to the run-off of material down the slope, and ending with the mound’s stratigraphy, formed over the course of two phases. In turn, in the case of mounds 6 and 7, it can be assumed that the effects of these processes have been somewhat “suppressed” in the magnetometric image, due to the strong impact of the burnt wooden structures located underneath the features

The barrow cemetery in Łubna (Łubna-Jakusy), Poland, excavated shortly after World War II , is one of the best-known necropolises in the western area of the Trzciniec Cultural Circle. During the archaeological research conducted by K. Jażdżewski, up to 27 mounds were excavated. In this article, the authors present and specify the absolute chronology of this site. Thanks to a search in the museum storerooms, it was possible to obtain osteological material, which was subsequently dated in the Poznań Radiocarbon Laboratory using the AM S method. These absolute dates combined with the results of a study of the archaeological material allowed the chronology of almost half of the excavated barrows to be defined. The dates obtained thanks to modelling functions answer the question about the timeframe the necropolis was in use. Additionally, the authors present a probable scenario for the development of the cemetery in Łubna, outlining the direction of expansion and characterizing its spatial arrangement.
