The article analyses a cognitive culture of Krzysztof Pomian, the well-known Polish (and also European) historian, philosopher, and anthropologist of culture. Thanks to Pomian we have recognized two fundamental metaphors of our historical thinking: abrasion and sedimentation. Thinking on the Past by abrasion is the same as to assume that history does not acting in the Present – there is only a collection of dead historical facts. In contrary, where we are thinking on the Past using the sedimentation metaphor - History is alive, works in Contemporaneity, changing our world. Pomian applies a two-variant model of metaphoric thinking in his main historiographic research studies, especially in Orde du Temps, and Sur l’histoire.

The study discusses accumulation and erosion processes which occurred in the bowl of Włocławek Reservoir in the period 1971-1992, and were analysed using digital batimetric maps. It also provides the results of the work of other authors concerning the assessment of the river sediments accumulated in the reservoir. Analysis of digital batimetric maps has shown that the materiał deposited in Włocławek Reservoir in the years 1971-1992 totalled about 18.3 million m3, which corresponds to approximately 0.87 million m3 of sediments per annum, and means a 4.5% loss of the reservoir's storage capacity. The volume of accumulation and erosion, assessed in this manner, approximates the earlier calculations performed using different research methods; it corroborates the fact that accumulation prevails in the balance of the sediments.
