Multicultural site no. 4 in Browina is located approx. 20 km north of Toruń and approx. 0.5 km south-west of Chełmża, in the Chełmża Plain, which is an area rich in remains of prehistoric settlement. It was discovered in the 1980s as part of the AZP programme (Archaeological Picture of Poland). In 2007, verifications were carried out to examine an area of 483 m2 during three research seasons (2014, 2015 and 2019). Sixteen cultural features of the Lusatian culture were documented, including one hearth and 14 features of undetermined function, as well as one posthole. There were obtained 504 fragments of pottery vessels, the analysis of which indicates that they date back to the early period of the Iron Age. The lack of traces of permanent dwelling structures on the site indicates that it was used for economic or agricultural purposes for a short time. The low degree of exploration of the area in excavations terms makes further interpretation much more difficult. Seasonal and ad hoc sites supplementing the settlement network of local communities are not well researched, but they can be a valuable source of data for analysing the ways of exploiting the space of micro regions by the Lusatian culture population.
