The settlement from Early Iron Age in Czarnoszyce site 1, Człuchów commune was discovered accidentally in 2017. Earlier that site was known in the Polish Archaeological Record (AZP) as a primeval settlement trace. The excavation conducted in 2018 covered 100 square metres. The small acreage was the result of the need for the exploration of the aeolian layers. A total thickness of those layers was 1.3 metres and was a result of the deforestation process in late medieval period or modern period. A few tree windthrows were found in the trench. The excavation yielded 11 features. In fills of nine of them there were many fragments of pottery vessels associated with the Wielka Wieś phase. They suggest dating back to the Hallstatt C period. The place was probably later settled by the Pomeranian culture community. But in the case of one feature, one radiocarbon date shows it should be dated back to the Roman Period. The south-western part of East Pomerania in Early Iron Age clearly formed a settlement cluster of the Wielka Wieś phase. Fourteen km south of Czarnoszyce excavations led to the discovery of a settlement unit (a settlement and a cemetery) in Chojnaty, Chojnice commune. The next settlement unit was located a bit further south, in Ostrowite, Chojnice commune. There, a few graves of the Wielka Wieś phase, as well as probably remains of a settlement were excavated. Those sites undoubtedly indicate a stabilization of the settlement in the Hallstatt C period. Therefore, the settlement in Czarnoszyce is likely another sample of the Wielka Wieś settlement network.
