In all, ten skeleton burials were discovered in the cemetery at Mroczków Slepy. Bodies are placed in West-East direction with deviation to South, and with heads to West. These were two woimen graves and eight child graves in infant age I and II. In graves 9 and 10 there appeared stone „protection" which may be attributed to the idea the burial ritual in Mazowsze District, or more widely with the paganrhristian stone symbolism. The discovered burials form three rows along North-South line. The burial material represents a typical early-mediaeval inventory: temple bows of II and III types (including one Pomeranian bow), small knives, a ring. The cemetery can be dated back to the second half of 12th and early 13th centuries. It is not a churchyard cemetery with a typically mediaeval lay-out of graves in rows and it occupies a hill-top orea of 1,5 hectare. It is located at the border-point of Żarnów and Skrzynno castellanie s near a mediaeval Russian trade trail leading from Czersko-Grójeckie Mazowsze via Drzewica to Końskie. The studies in the cemetery were conducted during only one season and they were of salvage type. The'cemetery is partly destroyed.

The excavations at the cemetery in Konopnica resulted in finding 114 fragments of terra sigillata from graves (Tab. 1) and 52 that were found loose. About 40% оГ the whole collection was attributed to a certain producer or at least a workshop (Tab. 2, 3). The set is badly preserved, partially destroyed in fire of funeral pyres. The analysis revealed that the fragments of vessels come from the Rhineland workshops in Rheinzabern and the Rhaetia ones in Westerndorf and Pfaffenhoffen. Forms of vessels are represented by bowls Drag. 37. The analysis of terra sigillata fragments found in the graves proves that they were treated in the same way of breaking and burning in piles as hand-made vessels or turnery ones. They were also divided among the dead, e.g. fragments of Comitialis bowel from Westerndorf were found in four different graves (Tab. 4). Terra sigillata is known from the graves of various category, from the rich ones, as well as, Trom the poor (Tab. 5-7). Terra sigillata might have been a sort of the „souvenir of Imperium” for people from Barbaricum although it is unknown whether their owners had enough awamess of their provenance. The cemetery in Konopnica dates back from the Late La Tene period A2-A3 to the phase D of the Migration of Nations period. Terra sigillata collected there dates back from the half of the phase B2/C1 to the end of the phase Cl. The forms are clearly connected with the flow of import after the Markomanian wars.

Results of archaeological investigations conducted at the collegiate church in Łowicz are discussed. The present church was built in the mid-17th century to the plan of Andrzej Poncino and on the initiative of Maciej Łubieński, archbishop since 1641. The tradition concerning the church goes back to 1100. In 1433 the then parish church, built in timber, was raised to the status of the collegiate church. The erection of the brick church was begun by archbishop Jan of Sprowa (1433-1464). In 1525 the building was destroyed by fire but the extent of the damage is not known. Successive patrons of the collegiate church had various building works done yet for lack of evidence they are hard to assess. In the period from the end of the 16th to the 18th century a number of archbishops’ burial chapels were added. However, either for lack of proper care or because of a number of successive fires the church was not always in a good state o f repair. Rescue excavations carried out by the Conservator of Monuments for the Province of Skierniewice in cooperation with the Department of Archaeology of the Łódź University have failed to determine the shape of the building prior to the mid* 17th century. The uncovered remains o f a Gothic wall have only added to our knowledge of the plan of the earliest brick building. Accordingly, it can be assumed that the collegiate church, located on the same site, was a three-aisled construction with an elongated presbytery. The earliest cultural layers, revealed by excavations, date to the mid-14th century whsn an urban centre, granted „town rights” (localio civiias) was being formed. Apart from the churchyard of the 12th—13th centuries, which had already been discovered in the pre-war period and which indirectly indicates the existence of a settlement preceding the locatio and confirms the early date of the church, no other traces of early medieval pre-localio settlement have come to light.

Die Arbeit stellt die Ergebnisse der zweiten Etappe von archäologischen Rettungsarbeiten auf dem frühmittelalterlichen Gräberfeld in Mroczków Slepy dar. Es Wurden 2 nächsten Gräber entdeckt, insgesamt die Zahl der geretteten Gräber gibt. Während der geführten Rettungsarbeiten wurden ans nährend das Gebiet der Gräberfelder und schäfzungsweise die Bestattungszahl bestimmt. Zur Ausstattung der Gräber gehören vor allem Schläferinge, die Gebrauchszeit des Gräberfeldes für die 2. Hälfte und eventueel den Anfang des XIII, Jahrhunderts bestimmen lassen. Der Charakter des Gräberfeldes und die Bestattunsart sind für nicht kirchliche Gräberfelder aus dem frühen Mittelalter typisch. Der auf dem Gräberfeld gefundene Schläfenring des pommerschen Typs wirft ein bestimmtes Licht auf die Strassenverbind düngen zwichen den ruthenischan Stadtzentren und Grosspolen und Masovien hin, in deren System sich bestimmt am Ende des XII Jhdt. auch das Gebiez des geforschten Gräberfeldes befang. Die nächsten günstigen und histirisch bestätigten Übergänge durch Pilica bei fanden sich in Inowłódz und Sulejów.

Three graves with weapon (3, 13, 18) at the Przeworsk culture cemetery in Kompina, site 12 are the subject of this article. The graves are furnished with military elements such as swords, spearheads, elements of shield and some other things, e.g. earthenware. The graves nos 13 and 18 are dated to the phase B2 (1st horizon of graves with weapon) whereas grave 3 to the phase C2 (3rd horizon of graves with weapon). The grave no 13 is connected with beginning of the transitional phase B2/C1 (la horizon of graves with weapon). The first of two graves belong to the group 4 (Hadrian’s and Antoninus Pius’ time) while the latter to the group 7 (dated from the decline of the 1st half of the 3rd to the 1st decades of the 4th century) in new chronological system of graves with weapon (K. Godłowski 1992, 1994). The purpose for this paper is to assess new comparative materials for researchers-arm specialists.
