The site of Świerszczów 28 was discovered in 2012 during field works connected with the construction of the Hrubieszów ring-road. The site is located on the border between Horodło Bar (Grzęda Horodelska) and Hrubieszów Basin (Kotlina Hrubieszowska). As a result of excavations, 221 non-portable features were found, of which 81 were dated based on artefacts found in their fills. The oldest phase of settlement is represented by artefacts connected with the Rzeszów phase of the Malice culture. Nine features yielded a series of 66 fragments of vessels (the majority of them were found in one feature, i.e. pit no. 243–53 sherds) which, in terms of technology, belong to the category of medium- or thick-walled pottery. Pottery forms represent vessel types typical of the Malice culture: biconical vessels – both pots and amphorae, profiled bowls and beakers on hollow feet. Vessels were decorated with ornamentation motives arranged in horizontal bands. The most typical ornaments were notches (corrugations), fingernails notches, “pinched” impressions and fingertips imprints. Knobs and plastic belts also appeared. Flint artefacts are represented by only 11 specimens. Two of them merit particular attention: an end-scraper with an oval front from feature no. 243 and a blade found in the layer of humus. Nine artefacts were made of Volhynian flint, the remaining two are burnt. The traces of the Malice culture occupation at Świerszczów 28 site are connected with a small settlement. The analyzed collection of artefacts is linked with the oldest segment of the Rzeszów phase (IIa) of the Malice culture, connected with trans-Carpathian influences from the proto-Tiszapolgár culture and phase A of the Tiszapolgár culture, which in terms of absolute chronology corresponds to the last quarter of the fourth millennium BC.

Excavations in the Nea Paphos Hellenistic-Roman agora have been conducted by the Chair of Classical Archaeology of the Jagiellonian University of Krakow since 2011 under the direction of Professor E. Papuci-Władyka. The main goal of the excavation is to fully uncover the Agora and to reconstruct the ways in which this public space was used. One of the methodological goals set for the research was the creation of a state-of-the-art database (work on which began in 2013) that could import and adapt data obtained from modern equipment. Of equal importance was the implementation of a 3D-format within the database (this had been under discussion for over a decade) and the enabling of GIS software data integration. Faro Focus laser scanner data was chosen to form the graphical core as it fulfilled the most important visual documentation criteria for the Paphos Agora Project database. This article presents the main premises on which the new Nea Paphos Hellenistic-Roman Agora Project database is based (on the integration of 3D and 2D data from 2011–2014) and the different stages of its creation, which made use of the latest methods of developing such tools for the purposes of archaeological excavations.
