Until now the knowledge of 'our' material outside Poland was negligible, and the Linear Band Pottery culture (LBK) settlement in the southeastern part of the country was viewed as peripheral and deprived of many elements recognized as typical in other parts of Europe. The article proves that the settlement region in the upper Vistula basin - in the scope of density and diversity of the settlement, its function, building constructions, and chronological extent - does not falls behind other centers of the culture in question. Analyzed carried out within our research allowed to draw a new picture of the settlement of the LBK in the upper Vistula basin. Two elements of this picture are especially important. The first on is related to the increasing number of domestic sites with long post houses. Our evidences suggest that such constructions might have been present on each permanently settled LBK site, and that their small (so-far) number is rather resulting from the state of the research. The second important conclusion is related to the distribution of LBK sites. Collected evidences revealed the presence of the concentrated settlement in areas so-far considered to be deprived of LBK traces, and - within already known groups - settlement more intensive than expected.

The current recognition of plant materials obtained from archaeological sites of the Linear Pottery Culture in the Upper Vistula basin made it possible to indicate the species that were cultivated and utilised by the Early Neolithic human communities. The data presented in this paper, referring to the occurrence of macroscopic plant remains of various types, was collected from 23 sites (97 identifi ed taxa). The analyses covered charred remains of plants, their imprints in daub and pottery, and fragments preserved within the mass of clay used for production of ceramic vessels. The results of these studies have delivered a great number of interpretative opportunities; apart from reconstructions of the environment and economic behaviours of fi rst farmers, these opportunities included the versatile application of plants, and clearly indicated that an application of plants and organic materials was highly diversifi ed and constituted the grounds on which human economy of the Early Neolithic was based.

Around 5600-5500 cal BC first farmers appeared at the North European Lowland initiating ca 2.000 years lasting process of neolithisation of this area. A unique feature of Dabki settlement is the presence of several horizons of imports in the Late Mesolithic and early FBC context, mainly pottery vessels. These imports point toward an important role of that place in the exchange system between Mesolithic groups inhabited Central European Lowland and Neolithic people. Beside local hunters-gatherers, groups of Linear Band Pottery, Stroke Band Pottery, Ertebolle, Brzesc Kujawski Group, Funnel Beaker and finally Bodrogkeresztúr cultures were engaged in these contacts. Till 2009 on site 9 at Dabki there were discovered 8 potsherds of the Bodrogkeresztúr culture. Ornamentation, morphology, and technology of the fragments are typical for the pottery of the culture in question. We can synchronize the discussed imports with the earliest Funnel Beaker settlement stage in Dabki, i.e. with years 4100/4000 cal BC.
