The article presents a set of sources connected with the Trzciniec culture settlement discovered in site 2 in Jeroniki, Choroszcz dis., Podlaskie Voivodeship During the research a very inspiring collection of materials associated with settlement was documented 29 immovable structures, plentiful pottery and flint material. An analysis of source dispersion allows for attempting a reconstruction of spatial organization and settlement structure during the older bronze epoch. Documented immovable structures constituted three relatively distinctive clusters which could be interpreted as homesteads and overlapping the spatial location of discovered pottery fragments. On the basis of a multi-aspect analysis of movable sources (primarily ceramic) the complex from Jeroniki should be associated with “classical” and/or “early-classical” stage of development Podlasie–Mazovia groups of the TC. They were also accompanied by “eastern” elements, as well as certain stylistic archaisms associated with the late stages of development of the Mierzanowice culture. One should, however, bear in mind the possibility of different dynamics in the development processes of the TC community in the north-eastern Poland. Tracking it would require studies based primarily on results of absolute dating. In this light, the presented materials could contribute to further analyses.

This article presents the territorial development of a settlement complex which occurred over a span of time between 1700–1100 BC. In this period we observe a few “settlement episodes” and record the historical development of 25–30 generations of communities within the Trzciniec cultural circle. The site had a complex spatial structure that changed (modified) over time. A number of settlements, cemeteries and single graves were singled out/identified. The model of spatial development of a settlement complex in Polesie is based on the changes in pottery styles, planigraphy analysis and the results of 14C dating. A system defining/specifying the dynamics of settlement changes and the ritual space of the Trzciniec cultural circle in Polesie was created on the basis of this data. The period of use of these particular settlements ranged from 50/150 right up to 600 years. The largest settlement covered an area of ca 1 ha, the smallest 0,3–0,5 ha. The settlement complex in Polesie is unique in comparison to the other sites of the Trzciniec cultural circle. This complex was widespread, consisting of both the settlement and cemetery areas and it continued to be occupied continually for over 660 years

The phenomenon of functioning of fortified settlements of late Bronze Age and early Iron Age in northern Podlasie (North-Eastern Poland) is a relatively new research problem, on which the knowledge is a result of research conducted in the last several years. The aim of the paper is to present the preliminary results of the interdisciplinary research of the Jatwieź Duża site (district of Suchowola, Sokółka County, Podlaskie voivodeship). The research area is located in the Podlaskie voivodeship in the Brzozówka valley (left tributary of Biebrza River), in the Biebrza Basin. The described site is characterized by an oval form of anthropogenic origin, which indicates a permanent or temporary settlement in the prehistory. This object is one of many similar forms currently being discovered in Podlasie region.This form is build by two distinct trench rings separated by earth embankment and a central flat elevation with a diameter of about 60 m. A geophysical survey (geomagnetic and GPR) was carried out. They registered a series of anomalies, forming two rings which relate to the relief of the site. Archaeological excavation was made in the north-west direction. It was 25 m long and 2 m wide, crossing the embankment and both trenches.. In the course of archaeological excavations, ten objects were discovered with fragments of ceramics and a few flint tools. Preliminary results of archaeological research indicate that this structure was use by the communities of Urnfield culture in the Bronze Age.
