Artykuł dotyczy badań prowadzonych od dwóch sezonów w rejonie wsi Kopaniec położonej w Górach Izerskich. Badacze wytypowali do badań gospodarstwo zanikłe po 1945 r., po którym przetrwały relikty w postaci murów i granicy zagrody wykonanej w formie szerokiego kamiennego muru. Budynek został wystawiony prawdopodobnie w XVIII w. i łączył w sobie funkcje mieszkalne i gospodarcze. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań można stwierdzić, że budynek nie został zasiedlony po 1945 r. i uległ destrukcji.

The article concerns research carried out since two seasons ago in the region of Kopaniec village situated in the Jizera Mountains. For the research, scholars selected a household which was abandoned after 1945, where relics in the form of walls and extremities of the enclosure in the form of a wide stone wall have been preserved. The building was most likely constructed in the 18th century and combined residential and agricultural functions. On the basis of the conducted research, it can be concluded that the building was not inhabited after 1945 and was destroyed.

The article discusses the results of interdisciplinary studies of a Romanesque stone head of high-quality artistry. It was discovered in 2017 during excavations at Nowy Targ (New Market) Square in the city of Wrocław (Lower Silesia, Poland). The sculpture originally came from one of the Romanesque sacred buildings of Wrocław, none of which have survived to this day. Although it had been made in the mid-12th century, it was found in the remains of a wooden residential building burnt down in the 14th century. The results of petrographic analyses indicate that the stone head was made of fine-grained sandstone classified as lithic wacke. The raw material was most likely a Devonian-Carboniferous sandstone from the Opava Mountains. However, similar sandstones also occurred in several medieval mines located in Upper Silesia. According to a popular belief, medieval aesthetics required such sculptures to be polychromed. The non-destructive analyses conducted with the microscopic XRF , XRD , and FTIR methods demonstrated that a clean stone surface was also acceptable.
