Talcose rock used in tempering Stroked Pottery Culture vessel finds from several sites in Lower Silesia was identified in the past incorrectly as gypsum or anhydrite (Kulczycka-Leciejewiczowa 1981, p. 33). Talc is a mineral with a low thermal expansion coefficient; it was often added to pottery to increase its thermal shock resistance (Rice 1987, p. 105-106). The petrographic analysis focused on four pottery samples originating from sites Gniechowice 8 (samples GNC1 and GNC2) and Niemcza 4 (samples NMZ1 and NMZ2). The scope of analysis included: thin section studies, XRD analysis, thermal analysis. Petrographic features distinctive for talcose rock were present in all the analysed samples (relics of antigorite and rusty brown frayed (?) aggregates of chlorite) and indicate a common source of the tempering material, possibly an outcrop of ultramaphic rock found in the Hills of Gilów or in the Mount Slęża Massif.

Background. The main aim of the paper was to analyse the current situation of tourism development in the Sudety Mountains municipalities. This led the authors to establish the prospects of the future growth possibilities. Butler’s Tourism Area Life Cycle theory was applied. Material and methods. The main research method was based on statistical data of the Central Statistical Office of Poland, with reference to entities in the REGON register and newlybuilt tourism accommodation establishments. Results and conclusions. The results show that there are no municipalities at the exploration stage, and there are only two at the involvement stage. The most important tourist and spa resorts (Karpacz, Szklarska Poręba, Kudowa-Zdrój, Polanica-Zdrój) are at the maturity stage, which is the result of slowing dynamics of the tourist economy. Unfortunately, the majority of the analysed municipalities are on the decline.

The main aim of the article is to test Richard Butler’s model of tourist destination lifecycle in relation to Benidorm – one of the most important Spanish seaside resorts. Benidorm is an example of extreme changes in the landscape caused by a large number of skyscrapers. The analysis of Benidorm’s history from 14th to 16th century and its photographs allowed us to identify phases of this resort’s cycle. Supply and demanded features, infrastructure, the degree of landscape change and management priorities were also taken into consideration. Particular attention was paid to the reorientation stage. Using statistical data, the authors verified how effective the reorientation of Benidorm’s tourism economy was. Moreover, in order to show a wide background of the issues discussed, the main characteristics of development stages of mass tourism were presented (based on ten examples of second generation seaside resorts).

Autorzy przetestowali model cyklu życiowego destynacji turystycznej Richarda Butlera na jednym z najważniejszych ośrodków turystyki wypoczynkowej Hiszpanii – Benidormie. Wyróżnia się on dużym stopniem przekształcenia krajobrazu – jest to największe skupisko wieżowców w Europie. Na podstawie historycznej analizy rozwoju ośrodka od XIV do XXI w. i źródeł ikonograficznych (fotografii) zidentyfikowano kolejne fazy cyklu, a także określono cechy popytu i podaży, zasób infrastrukturalny, stopień przekształcenia krajobrazu i priorytety zarządzania. Szczególny nacisk położono na omówienie procesu reorientacyjnego (restrukturyzacyjnego), a następnie oceniono jego skuteczność na podstawie analizy danych statystycznych. Rozpatrzono przypadek Benidormu na tle porównawczym 10 nadmorskich destynacji drugiej generacji z różnych regionów świata. Ponadto zaproponowano syntetyczny, uogólniony model rozwoju sfery turystycznej w uwzględnionych miejscowościach.
