During the second season of excavations on the early neolithic site in Zwieczyca very interesting and rare objects were found. The first one was discovered in the 'long pit' of the linearbandceramic culture, while the second one - almost identical - in the cultural layer near the 'long pit'. This objects are considered mostly in their symbolical aspects for the early neolithic communities in Europe. They are called 'double axes' (ger. Doppelhacken, doppelschneidige Hacken) and belong to the rarest finds in neolithic Europe. Currently we know about 40 finds from the whole dispersion area of the Linear Band Pottery culture. The both objects from Zwieczyca enrich therefore the amount (which is still very poor) of known artifacts of this type and constitute their new eastern appearance border. The ceramic finds from the long pit, where one of the objects was found, can be dated to the end of the note phase of the Linearbandceramic culture in Poland.

There is a settlement of the 'Linearbandkeramik' (Lbk) culture at Zwieczyca. Till now an area of 1000 square metres was excavated. It was a long lasting settlement with traces of 5-8 long houses. It is located on the western part of the Rzeszów Foot-Hills, on the loess terrace of the left bank of the Wislok river. During the last season of field works some samples of charcoal were selected from the pits of Lbk. There are three features, which can be recognised as settlements pits. Radiocarbon dates determine the chronology of the described settlement between 5200 and 4900 BC, contemporary to the late phase of Lbk in Central Europe.
