The following paper presents results of research on newly found barrow site of Wielbark Culture in Bagicz. The cemetery was discovered by LIDAR scan analysis. Thanks to this and terrain verification a total number of 57 mounds of varying size and degree of destruction were noted. To define estimated chronology of the site one of the barrows was excavated. Relation of that kind of site to Wielbark Culture is very interesting, especially in the context of its location as well as the cultural situation in the Roman Iron Age at the estuary of the Parsęta River.

Abstract: The paper focuses on death and its place in archaeology. It summarises the different approaches in interdisciplinary research. The main point is a proposal of a new research method, based on the concepts chaîne opératoire and schéma opératoire. This technological approach is presented using the example of six Wielbarkian graves. The authors developed a standardized form, which could be used for the description and analysis of a wide range of phenomenon related to mortuary practises in the past.

The article presents the results of research on the settlement of the Pyrzyce Lowland, NW Poland, in the Pre-Roman and Roman Iron Ages. The central part of this area was covered in the past by a large water body, pre-Miedwie lake, which due to natural processes and subsequent human intervention was partially drained. In order to carry out the research, 85 Pre-Roman and 305 Roman Iron Age sites were catalogued. The main method of researching the spatial organization was triangulation and subsequent polygon networking. The results of the spatial analysis were confronted with data from lake Racze’s palynological profile. Thanks to this procedure information was obtained on settlement structures, population, environment and economy, as well as their changes in time. The similarities and differences between the Pre-Roman and Roman Iron Ages were then discussed. During the research a strong suggestion of settlements having been relocated according to changes of the palaeo-shoreline of pre-Miedwie lake was concluded. Also, the change from inhabiting large and stable settlements in PRIA to single, often relocating farms in RIA was registered. There were no significant changes in terms of economy, which stayed diversified during the entire PRIA and RIA periods. The changes in anthropopression were most likely linked with changes in population size, reflecting 8 distinct phases of settlement in the area.
