The state of researches on the Pre-Roman and Roman Period settlement in the south east of Poland is highly dissatisfying. More then 80 sites are known from this region (Table I), including 50 settlements, 24 cemeteries and 7 stray finds, however, comparably little number of them were excavated in a larger scale and a great deal of uncovered material still remains unpublished. The sites form three clear chronological groups (Table II). The first group consist of 8 sites from the Pre-Roman Period (Fig. 1), which make 4 settlement zones (Fig. 8). A group of the Jastorf Culture origin occupied the zone I, while material from the zone II is ascribed to the Pomeranian Culture. The zones IIIA and IIIC were settled by the Tarnobrzeg group of the Lusatian Culture, which in the zone IIIC could existed even till the end of the Pre-Roman Period; in the zone IIIA clear influences of the Tyniec group are evidenced there by the finds of Celtic pottery. In the zone IIIB on the uncertain cultural background appeared the Przeworsk Culture in its classic form. The second group form settlements and cemeteries of the Przeworsk Culture, which occupied the entire described area in the early Roman Period (Fig. 2). The earliest certain finds came from the phase B1b, the latest from the phase B2/C1–C1a. In the southern zone of the Przeworsk Culture settlement strong influenced of the Dacian cultures are observed, evidenced by many finds of the pottery showing affinities with, probably, the Lipica Culture. From the southeastern areas of the Przeworsk Culture, from Lublin Upland till the upper Dniester, single weapon graves are known, dated mostly to the phase C1a, but also to the phase C1b. The collapse of the Przeworsk Culture in the south east of Poland was due to the migration of the Gothic tribes, who settled the Hrubieszów Hollow already in the phase B2/C1. The Przeworsk Culture left this region in the beginning of the late Roman Period, most probably by the end of the phase C1a; a group of the Przeworsk Culture could survive longer only in the zone IIIA (Fig. 7). Sites with wheel-made pottery and large storage vessels (so-called Krausengefäße) make the third chronological group, which covers the entire late Roman Period. At that time the zone I was occupied by the Wielbark Culture, which in the phase C2 reached zone II. The Culture of Carpathian Barrows penetrated zone IIIB, while in the zone IIIC appeared materials similar to finds from upper Dniester. The mountain zone was occupied by groups connected with Dacian cultures.
