The authors present the results of several years of research work in the Chelm Massif region (south-western Poland, the Province of Opole). During the rescue excavations preceding A-4 Motorway construction new Upper Palaeolithic sites were discovered. Besides already known archival sites, surface verification and some other successive finds of related chronology, St. Anna Mountain area appears a dense enclave of Upper Palaeolithic settlement. Obtained sources indicate undoubtedly the connection with the so-called Aurignacian cultures. Comparison of this material with Polish Aurignacian sites and with the inventories from Moravia and Lower Austria show strong formal similarities among these regions.
