The bronze bracelet from a stray find made in 2006 in the arable fields on the northern bank of the lower Narew R. at Jadwisin was discovered within an area recorded as site 3 (AZP 52-66/113) dated to the Roman Period but is not associated chronologically with this site. The penannular bracelet, of a chunky and broad band of sheet bronze, plano-convex in section, has on its outer face an ornament of groups of crosswise grooves alternating with broad panels filled with lengthwise grooves. In these panels some swellings formed between the grooves, mostly at the edges and near to the middle of the bracelet band, are covered with oblique or cross-wise incisions. The bracelet’s outer diameter is 6.7×8.8 cm, inner diameter – 5.7×7.8 cm, distance between bracelet terminals – 3.1 cm, maximum width of the bracelet body – 3.05 cm, thickness – 0.5 cm, weight 162.7 g. The ornamentation of this form of bracelets, known primarily from hoards type Karbowizna, is somewhat different: the panels with crosswise and lengthwise grooves either are approximately of the same width or the groups of crosswise grooves are wider than the groups of lengthwise grooves. A special design is executed on a bracelet from Kutno-Raszew, distr. Kutno, where panels covered with lengthwise grooves have a similar width and, between them, alternately, are narrow and broad groups of crosswise grooves. Broad panels with lengthwise grooves, also separated by alternately narrow and broad groups of crosswise grooves, appear on a bracelet from barrow no. 3 at Warzenko, distr. Kartuzy. Fine incisions on swellings between lengthwise grooves, but only at mid-width of the bracelet band, were made on one of the bracelets from Karbowizna, distr. Rypin, a find, similarly as the bracelet from Jadwisin, from the east bank of the Vistula. On this specimen the panels covered with lengthwise grooves are quite broad. Two other bracelets from Karbowizna have diagonally incised edges. Bracelets of a wide band of sheet metal decorated with lengthwise and crosswise grooves are noted during HaA1–HaA2, which corresponds to the younger segment of BA III and older segment of BA IV. The hoards from Karbowizna and Kutno-Raszew and the assemblage from Warzenko are dated to BA III. By the details of its ornament the find from Jadwisin recalls specimens from these chronologically earlier finds.

A hoard of bronze objects was discovered in 1835 at Nowy Łowicz (former Neu Lobitz, Kr. Dramburg), gm. Kalisz Pomorski, woj. zachodniopomorskie in Western Pomerania during the construction of asheepfold. In 1896 Baroness Anna Sylvia von Wangenheim presented the finds to the collection of the Berlin Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte where – except for a number of artifacts that were lost – they remain to this day. First information on the hoard was published by A. Kühne (1883, 31f., 327, 330, pl. 1/3–6), O. Olshausen (1891, 405 f.) and A. Götze (1897, 37 f., fig. 75). A. Stubenrauch gave a description and drawings of hoard contents in his journal (National Museum in Szczecin, archive file no. 226). The deposit from Nowy Łowicz was not included in K. Kersten’s catalogue (1958). J. Kostrzewski (1958, 352, lists 22, 23) cited only a few of its elements in his find lists. Because the deposit from Nowy Łowicz was never fully published it was invoked only rarely in later studies as compared to other Bronze Age hoards. The hoard included a necklace of 26 “double-horned pendants and 23 spiral beads, two lentoid buckle hoops and three clothes fastenings with spiral discs, four buttons, a cylindrical object, two fragments of pins(?) and three fragments of casting waste. The following items were subsequently lost: the fastenings with spiral discs, casting waste and a fragment of apin(?). Necklaces made up of double-horned pendants and spiral beads (Fig. 2) are a local form encountered only in Western Pomerania. Similar specimens are known from Storkowo and grave II at Trzebiatów–Ostrowice. Horned pendants were also recorded at Węgorza and Sucha, while spiral discs on their own are encountered in greater quantity. Necklaces of this type are considered to be an indicator of an archaeological culture group from Bronze Age III in Pomerania (H. J. Eggers 1936, 41, map on p. 44), recently designated as Ostrowice Group (M. Gedl 1990, 30 f., fig. 3). Lentoid buckle hoops and spiral fastenings (Fig. 3a–d) are an element of the so-called Storkowo type buckles (Fig. 3e). Similar buckles were recovered at Storkowo, Trzebiatów–Ostrowice and perhaps also at Buczek. It is not certain whether the larger subsequently lost clothes fastenings with spiral discs was associated with Storkowo type buckles. Buckles of this type, similarly as the pendant and bead necklaces, are characteristic for the Ostrowice Group. It is striking that Storkowo buckles resemble specimens known from Pomerania as late as in BA V. Circular buttons made of sheet bronze (Fig. 4a–d) are a frequent element of Bronze Age grave goods in Pomerania while specimens most similar to the ones in question were discovered in a grave at Banie dated to BA IV. The cylindrical object (Fig. 4e) is most probably a ferrule for hafting the shaft of the so-called halberd or palstave. This is strongly supported by the closest analogies from Niechmirów, woj. łódzkie dated to BA III. Two lengths of bronze wire may be pin fragments (Fig. 4f), a frequent element in Bronze Age assemblages in Pomerania. One of the three bronze and copper casting cakes with projections is a casting jet (Fig. 4g). The hoard from Nowy Łowicz extending the assortment of finds defined as type Storkowo is representative for the Ostrowice Group (Fig. 5) exhibiting the tradition of Tumuli Cultures as well as influences from the Nordic Culture Circle in metallurgy. Chronology of the deposit in question should be examined within the framework of the horizons of finds accepted as typical for this group. Of primary importance for the discussion of the chronology of the Nowy Łowicz hoard are grave goods from burials at Trzebiatów–Ostrowice (H. J. Eggers 1938). The three assemblages finds of Storkowo type were accompanied by Wierzbięcin type armlets. This prompted W. Blajer (1979, 61 f., 68 f.) to date the assemblages to late phase III and the beginning of BA IV. K. Randsborg is inclined to associate finds linked at present with the Ostrowice Group with the so-called period sub-III noting adelay in the emergence of BA IV forms in Western Pomerania and in Mecklemburg as compared to the neighbouring cultures (K. Randsborg 1972, 71, fig. 17, 76). Perhaps the phenomenon may be linked with the process of change in the cultural aspect and the rise of the Lusatian Culture in Pomerania. At present the character of the deposit from Nowy Łowicz cannot be convincingly defined. An argument in favour of its “secular character and treating it as a deposit, perhaps of a craftsman, may be the presence of casting waste and of fragments of larger objects. However in the light of more recent conclusions its religious character cannot be excluded (cf. W. Blajer 1992, 102). The review of archival documentation and verification in the field helped to identify the location of the deposit of bronze objects. Moreover, in the course of excavation conducted by the author in a cemetery of Wielbark Culture at Nowy Łowicz revealed the presence of a previously unknown cemetery of Lusatian Culture (Fig. 1). Graves uncovered so far are dated to the younger Bronze Age (K. Hahuła 1991, 1992) but burials from earlier periods of the Bronze Age may probably be discovered in the future (cf.R.Wołągiewicz 1961), contemporary to the hoard of bronze objects.

Recent studies helped to refine the provenance (recorded as Zatom, former distr. Międzychód) of vessels in keeping of the State Archaeological Museum in Warsaw as Nowy Zatom, comm. and distr. Międzychód, woj. wielkopolskie. The specimens had been unearthed in 1931 near the “Lubitz farm” during construction work. A site sketch made on this occasion also shows the location of some hundred or so Lusatian culture graves discovered earlier in the same area. Unfortunately the review of archival records and literature has failed to identify any reference to such a cemetery at Nowy Zatom. The vessels passed to the State Archaeological Museum in Warsaw thanks to an intervention of Zygmunt Zakrzewski, Inspector of Prehistoric Monuments for the Wielkopolska Province

The group deposit recovered in autumn of 2013 in an arable field in Gdańska street in Słupsk (Fig. 1) includes three fragments of a brooch, a chisel and two sickles (Fig. 2). Brooches with two oval, slightly domed, undecorated plates (Fig. 2:1) are classified to the type alte Plattenfibel. During Bronze Age period V double-plate two part brooches are the most widespread in Western and Middle Pomerania, and in central Mecklenburg, where they start being manufactured, presumably as a result of Nordic influences (Z. Bukowski 1998, p. 339). Chisels with a round-sectioned socket and a narrow blade (Fig. 2:2) date to Bronze Age periods IV and V (Z. Bukowski 1998, p. 314–315). Due to the similarity of the form of specimens recovered in Pomerania, Greater Poland and Mecklenburg, the provenance and typological position of these chisels cannot be established and they must be regarded as local (E. Sprockhoff 1956, p. 101; Z. Bukowski 1998, p. 314). Bronze sickles (Fig. 2:3.4) are simple forms with an integral rivet on the handle. Almost all of these specimens have been found in hoards dating to Bronze Age period V. In Pomerania chisels of this type are recorded in the Odra estuary and in the belt extending between Koszalin and Puck (M. Gedl 1995, pl. 44B; Z. Bukowski 1998, p. 327). This range suggests a local provenance of these sickles, leading to their classification as Pomeranian type (J. Kostrzewski 1958, p. 150, 356, lists 42, 43). In the earlier literature group deposits of damaged objects used to be interpreted as hoards of itinerant bronzesmiths, their occurrence mostly linked to the reduced influx of raw bronze at the end of Bronze Age period IV and to the hoarding of bronze scrap for recasting (J. Kostrzewski 1953, p. 201). However, it is also possible that the deposition of damaged objects was a form of hoarding goods by their owners, rather than their makers. The aim of ritually destroying and disposing of these objects may have been dictated by the wish to sustain, or to acquire, a suitable social rank (R. Bradley 1990, p. 145; Z. Bukowski 1998, p. 257, 264; W. Blajer 2001, p. 288; A. Rembisz 2009, p. 24).

The issue of illegal search for artefacts and the activity of the so-called detectorists, unfortunately has its infamous continuation to this day. Their actions, though usually aimed at acquiring relics of the World War II , often lead to the discovery of various artefacts or even new archaeological sites. In 2016, the Voivodeship Office of the Cultural Heritage Protection in Gdańsk received information from a Pomeranian archaeologist about the discovery of a bronze necklace near the village of Kębłowo, Luzino commune. The area from which the find was to be originate is located in the northern part of the Pomeranian Voivodeship. It is also a fragment of the northern edge of the Kashubian Lake District. The artefact in question is a necklace, oval in shape, circular in cross section and dimensions: diameter 20.7 x 19.5 cm, cross-sectional thickness from 0.5 cm. up to 0.8 cm. Its rather unusual closed form, unparalleled in Pomeranian forms should be emphasised. The artefact discovered near Kębłowo could be in its form a closed necklace from a solid rod. The question remains whether it was cast and for some reason unfinished. The ball could be, for example, a bronze inlet place during casting the artefact in mould. For some reason, it was not removed later, and the ends of the artefact were not cut open. The artefact from Kębłowo in the absence of knowledge of the context of the discovery can be dated to the end of the Bronze Age and the beginning of the early Iron Age. The archaeological artefact in question, although it certainly has display values, unfortunately belongs to the group of so-called stray finds, i.e. the ones with no information about the original archaeological context.

Poruszana w ostatnich latach problematyka nielegalnych poszukiwań zabytków i aktywności tzw. detektorystów, ma niestety do dziś swoją niechlubną kontynuację. Ich działania, choć zwykle nastawione na pozyskiwanie reliktów drugiej wojny światowej, często prowadzą jednak do odkrycia różnego rodzaju zabytków czy wręcz nowych stanowisk archeologicznych. W 2016 roku do Wojewódzkiego Urzędu Ochrony Zabytków w Gdańsku wpłynęła, przekazana przez jednego z pomorskich archeologów, informacja o odkryciu brązowego naszyjnika w okolicach miejscowości Kębłowo, gmina Luzino. Okolica, z której miało pochodzić znalezisko znajduje się w północnej części województwa pomorskiego. Jest to jednocześnie fragment północnego skraju Pojezierza Kaszubskiego. Opisywany zabytek to naszyjnik, kształtu owalnego, o okrągłym przekroju i wymiarach: średnica 20,7 x 19,5 cm, grubość przekroju od 0,5 cm. do 0,8 cm. Należy podkreślić jego dosyć nietypową zamkniętą formę, niespotykaną u form pomorskich. Zabytek odkryty niedaleko Kębłowa mógł być być w swojej formie naszyjnikiem zamkniętym z litego pręta. Otwartym pozostaje pytanie, czy został on odlany i z jakiś powodów nie dokończony. Kulka mogła być np. miejscem wlewu brązu podczas odlewania zabytku we formie. Z jakiś powodów nie została ona później usunięta, a końce zabytków rozcięte. Zabytek z Kębłowa wobec braku znajomości kontekstu odkrycia można datować na schyłek epoki brązu i początek wczesnej epoki żelaza. Przedmiotowy zabytek archeologiczny, jakkolwiek z całą pewnością posiada walory ekspozycyjne, należy niestety do grupy tzw. odkryć luźnych, czyli pozbawionych informacji na temat pierwotnego kontekstu archeologicznego.

In 1968 two bronze knobbed shaft-hole axes type Nortycken (inv. PMA III/5858:1.2) were added to the collection of the State Archaeological Museum in Warsaw, originating from Czubin, site V (AZP [= Polish Archaeological Record] 58-63/42), pow. Pruszków, woj. mazowieckie (Fig. 1). Both pieces in horizontal projection are rhomboid in outline, their button-like, blade well-defined and splayed (Fig. 2). Their circular shaft-holes are slightly off-centre. On side faces of the axes four horizontal grooves may be seen, at the base of the cutting edge curving out to the sides in twos, away from each other. The upper and the lower face of both axes is without ornament, their surface retains the remains of casting seams. The dimensions of the smaller of the examined pieces (Fig. 2A) are as follows: total L. – 16.4 cm, H. at the shaft-hole – 1.2 cm, W. at the shaft-hole –3.1 cm, shaft-hole D. – 1.9 cm, butt W. – 1.0 cm, butt H. – 3.2 cm, cutting edge L. measured from the base – 3.1 cm, cutting edge H. – 5.6 cm. The colour of the surface is light green (patina) and brownish-gold. The dimensions of the heavier axe (Fig. 2B) are the following: L. – 16.6 cm, H. at the shaft-hole – 1.45 cm, W. at the shaft-hole – 3.1 cm, shaft-hole D. –2.0 cm, butt W. – 1.0 cm, butt H. – 2.0 cm, cutting edge L. measured from the base – 3.3 cm, cutting edge H. – 5.8 cm. The colour of the surface is dark green (patina), in places brownish-gold. Both axes were cast in tin bronze. Chemical composition of the alloy used in casting the smaller piece is as follows: Cu – 88.51%, Sn – 8.6%, Sb – 0.26%, As – 0.23%, Pb – 0.009%, Co – 0.19%, Bi – 0.002%, Ag – 0.005%, Au – 0, Ni –0.95%, Fe – 1.0%, Mn – trace, Cr – trace, Zn – 0.05%, Al. – 0.026%, Cd – 0, Be – 0, Te – 0. The analysed copper and tin alloy shows a substantial content of iron, nickel and cobalt. Chemical composition of alloy used for casting the larger axe is somewhat different: Cu – 89.43%, Sn – 8.6%, Sb – 0.26%, As – 0.02%, Pb – 1.25%, Co –0.04%, Bi – 0.0052%, Ag – 0.1%, Au – 0.0022%, Ni – ca. 0.004%, Fe –0.07%, Mn – 0, Cr – 0, Zn – 0.09%, Al – 0.028%, Cd – 0, Be – 0, Te – 0. It is a copper and tin alloy with a higher content of lead. Differences in the chemical composition of alloys used in casting the two knobbed shaft-hole axes result from natural contamination of the ore, suggesting its different origin. The knobbed shaft-hole axe type Nortycken is classified to the eastern variant, which is recorded from Mecklenburg to Latvia. Although it has been suggested in literature that axes of this type are noted already in Bronze Age II basing on the limited number of known assemblages it seems more appropriate to associate them only with Bronze Age III, more likely, its younger segment, corresponding to phase HA1. The two knobbed shaft-hole axes from Czubin fit within these chronological boundaries. Originally, the two specimens probably belonged to a hoard of bronzes, its individual components recovered from an area of more or less a hectare, starting from the late 19th century until the period between World War I and World War II. The deposit (at least, its part known to us) included between 17 and 19 pieces: five knobbed shaft-hole axes with a button-like butt, type Nortycken, five flanged axes, type Czubin, three palstaves, one Nordic type axe with an ornamented socket, three ornamented bracelets and, possibly, two further bronze pieces (axe and/or knobbed shaft-hole axe), known only from spoken communication. The hoard as a whole is dated to the second half of Bronze Age III.

The article is to describe the metal monuments discovered in position No. 2 in Strobin (commune Konopnica) in the light of metallurgical studies. This treasure dates back to the V Bronze Age by. A. Montelius (H B3 by P. Reinecke) and comes with a fortified settlement of the Lusatian culture.Article is divided into several parts. The first of these is explained differences and definitions related to metallurgical studies. In a further describes the main components of alloys made of tin bronzes. The main components of bronze alloy is tin and copper. It is also described how the amount of tin and copper affect the quality and mechanical properties of the alloy. There are also important alloying elements that reduce or increase the quality and strength of the alloy.The next section describe the metallurgical test methods such as X-ray that allows for finding the defects in the metal. Another method which allows to determine the chemical composition of the alloy is spectral analysis.The next section describes the analysis of metallurgy treasure discovered in Strobin in 1982. It contained fragments of pottery and bronze objects, such as sickles, bracelets, nodules, necklaces, rings, pendants and one bead. The last part is presented the summary and conclusions.

The settlement in Biskupice is located on the left bank of the Warta river, about 7 km north of Sieradz. It is a headland elevated about 10 m above the valley floor, and limited to the west and north by a drainage valley (Fig. 1). The first excavations in Biskupice were carried out in 1954 in the area of two small trenches. There was recorded a blackening of soil of considerable size, now defined as feature 1 (Fig. 2, 3). No subsequent materials were obtained until 2010, when a storage pit with a pear-shaped profile was discovered – feature 2. During the field studies, a total of 374 fragments of ceramic vessels and 655 animal bones were acquired. The collection from Biskupice included vessels decorated with the use of a single, all-round plastic strip (Fig. 4: 1–3, 6, 8, 9; 5: 2, 4; 6: 3–6; 8: 1, 3, 4) as well as a double one (Fig. 6: 5; 8: 4); a single strip decorated with finger impressions was also recorded. Two types of knobs were discovered: 1 – oval/round (Fig. 7: 2, 8), and longitudinal (Fig. 4: 4; 5: 1; 6: 7; 7: 7). The finds characterised by the imprint technique included the “textile ornament” combined with the motif of a single all-round strip with finger impressions. Vessels with rims of A type – non-thickened prevail, thickened rims (type B) and thinned (type C) were sporadically noted. The main form of containers in Biskupice were pots of G111 variant with two types: G111a with almost cylindrical rim (Fig. 4: 3, 9; 5: 2; 6: 5; 8: 2) and G111b with rim turned outside (Fig. 4: 1, 2, 6, 8; 5: 1, 4; 6: 4; 8: 1). Their ornamentation includes single, as well as double smooth all-round strip with finger impressions and knobs. Other finds included vases with conical necks/rims, decorated with knobs (Fig. 4: 4; 5: 7; 6: 10) and an amphora (Fig. 6: 1). The list of forms is complemented with mugs and bowls in the hemispherical variation M1 (Fig. 5: 5, 6; 6: 2; 7: 7) and profiled M3 (Fig. 7: 1). There were distinguished two stylistic groups. One was assigned to the Trzciniec culture and it was represented by complexes of HT3–HT4 type in Kuyavia. The other group contained vessels decorated with a textile ornament, as well as a single strip decorated with fingernail impressions. Due to the tectonics, these vessels were included to the Mad’arovce- Věteřov-Únětice circle (generally, the Older Únětice circle). On the basis of the existing elements among the ceramic forms, the duration of the settlement in Biskupice falls between the end BrA2 and the 1st half of BrB2, which is dated to 1750–1450 BC. However, taking into account the result of 14C, the duration of the settlement in Biskupice should be located in the years 1750–1600 BC and it should be clearly attributed to the population of the Trzciniec culture, in whose vicinity the materials originating from the Older Únětice circle were recorded. Moreover, which is perhaps the most important matter, the coexistence of materials with such a different cultural provenance suggests a possibility of the existence of a syncretic cultural Trzciniec-Older Únětice group in Biskupice (or in its region).

This article is a study of the collection of the ancient metal artefacts that were found in the Ina valley to the south of Suchań, Stargard Szczeciński County. The finds are dated from the Bronze Age to the Roman Period. The collection is of great informative value not only because of unusual environment of deposition, but also because some artefacts are of great material and artistic value. Two objects deserve special mention: a necklace of a Wendelring type and a silver fibula with a double spring, for which there are no close analogies. Furthermore, because of the fact that relatively little is known in terms of archaeology in this area, the finds give new information that help understand the regional cultural situation. It is worth mentioning that from the Bronze Age there are only tools and weaponry, i.e. a sickle, axes and a spearhead, whereas from the Hallstatt Period and the Roman Period aretefacts consist only of ornaments and coins. It is also important to note that there is a chronological as well as typological similarity of the finds from Suchań to the finds from the site at Buczek, Białogard County. Artefacts from the Bronze Age probably served as substitute grave goods or sacrificial objects, whereas the finds from the Roman Period could be sacrificial.

In the spring of 2016, an archaeology student at the University of Wrocław together with a resident of Gościno commune found a blue-green blade that fitted into the palm of his hand. It was found in a ploughed soil while walking along a forest path in Dargocice (Gościno commune, Kołobrzeg district, West Pomeranian Voivodeship). The artefact was submitted to the Institute of Archaeology at the University of Wrocław for further analysis.

The bronze dagger blade in the collection of the State Archaeological Museum was discovered at an unknown locality north of Dęblin. It belongs in the group of daggers with a rounded hilt-plate with two rivets and a half-round sectioned mid-rib on the blade, but differs by having a visibly attenuated upper end, which gives it a more slender shape. Slightly dented areas discernible around the rivet holes could be marks left by the hammering of the rivets. At the hilt end the rib is flattened; the lighter colour and insubstantially worn surface of this suggest that the dagger originally had an organic haft. The dagger of interest is closes in its outlook to the find from Parlin, distr. Świecie. Also close in their form and dimensions are dagger finds from Łuszczewo, distr. Konin, and the vicinity of Środa Wielkopolska, distr. loco. Similar but larger daggers are known from Glinienko, distr. Poznań, and Bydgoszcz, distr. loco. Some similarity is shown also by dagger finds from Gryfino, distr. loco, and Szczecin-Zdroje, distr. loco. A slender blade, like in the dagger from the Dęblin region, is seen in a slightly longer dagger, with four rivet holes, from Kotłowo, distr. Koszalin, belonging to a hoard dated to BA III; it may be possible to push back the dating of this deposit to BA II. Further analogies, represented by daggers which are similar in size and the from of their hilt end, but are lozengic in cross-section, include a specimen from Wiechowice, distr. Głubczyce. Daggers with a semicircular rib and a rounded hilt end, but without a metal grip, are characteristic for Tumulus Cultures and dated broadly to BA II. The dagger blade from the Dęblin region would be the easternmost find of its type, discovered in an area settled during the older Bronze Age by the people of Trzciniec Culture, where it is certain to be an import from the territory of Tumulus Culture.

Ryte wyobrażenie konia na glinianym naczyniu kultury pucharów lejkowatych z Gródka nad Bugiem można uznać za najstarszy wizerunek tego zwierzęcia we wschodniej części Europy Środkowej (Ryc. 1–4). Jego wykonawca mógł inspirować się wizerunkami zwierząt na naczyniach kultury Cucuteni-Tripolie. Stylizowane wyobrażenie konia pojawiało się też na naczyniach w epoce brązu, ale najczęściej występuje we wczesnej epoce żelaza. Zestawiono tu 227 takich wyobrażeń, z czego 55 uznano za dyskusyjne (Katalog, Tab. 1). Kilkanaście dalszych pochodzi z okresu rzymskiego. Dla wszystkich wspólna jest uproszczona stylistyka, niezmienna od neolitu.

The article presents results of the research undertaken in 2016 at a site in Prusinowo near Gryfice. The site was previously thought to be an early medieval fortified settlement. The results of the latest research indicate that it could be dated to the turn of the Bronze Age and Hallstatt period. The site is surrounded with a destroyed rampart and a shallow ditch (moat?) from the south and east, which suggest that originally a fortified settlement existed in this place. The unusual course of the fortifications, however, does not preclude a possibility of their modern origin.

The issues of searching for artefacts and stray finds that are devoid of archaeological context as well as the activity of the so-called detectorists, unfortunately has its continuation to this day. Their activities, although usually aimed at acquiring remains from the Second World War, often lead to the discovery of various types of artefacts or even new archaeological sites. This article addresses the issue of the find from the northern part of the town of Reda, handed over to the Pomeranian Voivodeship Conservator of Monuments directly by the discoverer. The findings made in the course of the case allow to confirm the accidental nature of the find, which turned out to be a bronze axe. The whole specimen is 7 cm long with a blade width of 3 cm. It can be classified as Kopaniewo type, very popular in Pomerania. These artefacts were also known to occur in Greater Poland, west of the Odra River and in Jutland. In Pomerania, their greatest concentration comes from the Słupia, Łupawa and Łeba rivers basins. The origin and manufacture of Kopaniewo axes were to be locally Pomeranian. The specimen found in the town of Reda can be dated to the V period of the Bronze Age. For movable archaeological artefacts, the most important thing is that the fact of their acquisition should be accompanied by archaeological research, which consists not only in discovering and securing individual items, but also in recognizing and documenting the system of cultural layers. Hence, in the scientific community of archaeologists and conservators of monuments, more and more frequently occurs a postulate to strengthen the tools of control over the process of searching for artefacts and the legal solution to the status of groups dealing with field searches with the use of detectors and their cooperation with archaeologists. In the discussed case, however, the attitude of the finder should be praised, as he decided to notify the monuments protection authorities of the discovery.

The Archaeological Department of the Cracow Saltworks Museum in Wieliczka conducted archaeological research in year 2018 on station 43 in Bochnia-Chodenice. Numerous movable historical objects and cultural artefacts were discovered in the course of the works. These discoveries should be linked to the Neolithic Age and the Bronze Age. Findings included artefacts of the linear pottery culture, the Malice culture, the Pleszów-Modlnica group, the Mierzanowice culture and the Lusatian culture. In years 2018-2019, preparations were commenced to conduct research at two barrow sites discovered in Kolanowski Forest near Bochnia (Bochnia-Kolanów, station no. 120; Łapczyca, station no. 90). Geomagnetic surveys and soil recognition boreholes were carried out in these locations, ALS data was developed and interpreted, and field penetrations were conducted several times. In year 2019, archaeological supervision of earthworks was commenced in association with the renovation of the former district court building, adapted to become the new headquarters of the Cracow Saltworks Museum in Wieliczka.

W trakcie prowadzonych prac natrafiono na liczne zabytki ruchome i obiekty kulturowe. Odkrycia należy wiązać z okresem neolitu i epoką brązu. Wydzielono artefakty kultury ceramiki wstęgowej rytej, kultury malickiej, grupy pleszowsko-modlnickiej, kultury mierzanowickiej oraz kultury łużyckiej. W latach 2018–2019 rozpoczęto przygotowania do badań dwóch stanowisk kurhanowych odkrytych w Lesie Kolanowskim nieopodal Bochni (Bochnia-Kolanów, stan. 120; Łapczyca, stan. 90). Przeprowadzono tam badania geomagnetyczne, odwierty gleboznawcze, wykonano opracowanie i interpretację danych ALS oraz kilkukrotnie przeprowadzono penetracje terenowe. W 2019 r. rozpoczęto nadzór archeologiczny prac ziemnych, związanych z remontem budynku dawnego sądu powiatowego, adaptowanego na nową siedzibę Muzeum Żup Krakowskich Wieliczka.

Currently, as the most important in the study on the Bronze Age in Pomerania should be considered the issues articulated below, constituting the most perceptible cognitive deficit. 1. With a relatively large number of source studies and a significant conference resilience, allowing presentation of newly discovered material, a deficit of more recent works of conceptual character, which would present a comprehensive picture of Pomerania in the Bronze Age or present specific issues concerning e.g. economic strategies, social structures, burial rites etc. is severely felt. In this matter the milestones still remain works by Józef Kostrzewskiego written nearly 60 years ago, and approaching its 20th anniversary the work by Zbigniew Bukowski. 2. The lack of major series of absolute dating, radiocarbon and dendrochronological, which is the Achilles heel of research on the Bronze Age and the early Iron Age in the whole basin of the Odra and Vistula rivers, with particular strength is perceptible in Pomerania. 3. The lack of systematic research on settlement sites and specialist analyses from them, which would provide data on the settlement of specific oecumeni and management methods. 4. The lack of field work aimed at recognising specific microregions, topics, the dominance of ad hoc excavations of rescue character has long been part of the specific signum temporis of modern archaeology, which research areas determine the conservation threat zones. 5. The lack of a larger group of specialists, including young staff, showing interest in this section of prehistory in Pomerania - an area that offers excellent source potential and a large range of research problems connected with it. Since the time of compulsory linking the Lusatian culture carriers with the Early Slavs and related necessity to prove the presence of this taxon also in Pomerania has passed, one can devote to studies on the Bronze Age and the early Iron Age in this region without unnecessary non-subject loads, using the entire spectrum of comparative studies with German and Scandinavian materials.

Obecnie za najistotniejsze w badaniach nad epoką brązu na Pomorzu należy uznać poniżej wyartykułowane kwestie, stanowiące najbardziej odczuwalny deficyt poznawczy. 1. Przy relatywnie dużej liczbie opracowań źródłowych i znacznej prężności konferencyjnej, pozwalającej na prezentację nowo odkrytych materiałów, dotkliwie odczuwalny jest deficyt nowszych prac o charakterze konceptualnym, w których zostałby przedstawiony syntetyzujący obraz Pomorza w epoce brązu lub zaprezentowane konkretne zagadnienia, dotyczące np. strategii gospodarczych, struktur społecznych, obrządku pogrzebowego itd. W tej materii ciągle kamieniami milowymi pozostają prace Józefa Kostrzewskiego sprzed blisko 60 lat oraz zbliżające się do swego dwudziestolecia dzieło Zbigniewa Bukowskiego. 2. Brak większych serii datowań absolutnych, radiowęglowych i dendrochronologicznych, stanowiący piętę achillesową badań nad epoką brązu i wczesną epoką żelaza w całym dorzeczu Odry i Wisły, ze szczególną mocą dostrzegalny jest na Pomorzu. 3. Brak systematycznych badań na stanowiskach osadowych i pochodzących stamtąd analiz specjalistycznych, które dostarczyłyby danych odnośnie do zasiedlenia konkretnych ekumen oraz sposobów gospodarowania. 4. Brak prac terenowych ukierunkowanych na rozpoznanie konkretnych mikroregionów, tematów, przewaga doraźnych badań o charakterze ratowniczym od dawna wpisuje się w swoiste signum temporis współczesnej archeologii, której poligony badawcze wyznaczają strefy zagrożenia konserwatorskiego. 5. Brak większego grona specjalistów, w tym młodej kadry, przejawiających zainteresowanie przedmiotowym odcinkiem pradziejów na Pomorzu - obszarze, który oferuje doskonały potencjał źródłowy i połączony zeń duży wachlarz problemów badawczych. Ponieważ minął już czas obowiązkowego łączenia nosicieli kultury łużyckiej z Prasłowianami i związana z tym konieczność udowadniania obecności tego taksonu również na Pomorzu, można bez zbędnych obciążeń pozamerytorycznych oddać się studiom nad epoką brązu i wczesna epoką żelaza w tym regionie, wykorzystując do tego celu całe spectrum studiów porównawczych z materiałami zaodrzańskimi i skandynawskimi.

Abstract: The article presents the archaeological material from site 16 in Sypniewo, Złotów district, from a short-term settlement phase of the Lusatian culture from IV- the first half of V period of the Bronze Age. The nearest analogies to features discovered on the site provided results of excavations in Pomerania, on burial grounds linked to so-called Lusatian-Pomeranian-Jastorf circle.

Stanowiska archeologiczne Ługowina 12 (AZP: 24-14/5) i Ługowina 13 (AZP: 24-14/6) zostały odkryte podczas badań terenowych prowadzonych w 1988 roku. Początkowo oznaczono je jako punkty osadnicze – prehistoryczne (12 i 13) i późnośredniowieczny (12). W oparciu o najnowsze znaleziska zmieniono funkcję stanowisk. Obecnie są to dwie, a być może fragmenty jednej osady, której chronologię – na podstawie niewielkiego zbiorowiska ułamków ceramiki – ustalono na piąty okres epoki brązu – okres halsztacki.

Archaeological sites Ługowina 12 (AZP: 24-14/5) and Ługowina 13 (AZP: 24-14/6) have been discovered during a field survey conducted in 1988. Initially, they were recorded as settlement points – prehistorical (12 and 13) and late medieval (12). Based on recent finds, the function of the sites has been changed. Now these are settlements, or perhaps parts of one settlement, the chronology of which – based on a small assemblage of potshards – was established to the fifth period of the Bronze Age – the Hallstatt period.
