The aim of archaeological excavation of site no. 36 at Kamieniec Ząbkowicki, distr. Ząbkowice, made 6.07.2009-31.07.2009 was to confirm whether it was a site of extraction of mica schist, especially, during the early medieval period. The site was selected for testing for a number of reasons. One of them was that local manufacture of quernstones from mica schist was confirmed by finds from the nearby site Kamieniec Ząbkowicki 3. This early medieval (ninth century) settlement, investigated in 1983 and in the 1990s, yielded finds of quernstones and their rough-outs made of mica schist. A field reconnaissance and analysis of geological maps identified Krzyżowa Góra (Mount) as the nearest outcrop of mica schist, if measured in a straight line from the early medieval settlement. The second reason for making the study were traces of mining and working stone observed in Krzyżowa Góra. These include: a fragment of a quernstone not separated from the rock substrate, numerous holes drilled in the rock, marks left by wedges, drills, cut-marks in the rock. The study confirmed that the outcrop of mica schist was indeed mined in the past. No evidence of early medieval extraction and stoneworking was obtained, only of late and post-medieval activity of this sort. Even so, basing on comparative petrographic analyses of samples from the stone quarry and from quernstones originating from the ninth century settlement we can confirm that mica schist was mined also during the early medieval period, even though no finds dating from this period survived in the stone quarry. During the sixteenth-eighteenth century the quarry was used as a source of building stone. This form of use places the site in the category of local quarries, worked for short periods of time according to the need.

The aim of this paper is to argue that there is a need for a European Union directive on gender quotas among non-executive directors of companies listed on the stock exchange and employing at least 250 people. The first part of the paper presents the current data that show the proportion of female managers at different levels of organisations. The data come from two surveys conducted in 2012 in Polish organs of government administration and in a state-owned enterprise Lasy Pan´ stwowe (National Forests). The results indicate that women occupy 20% of top management positions in central administration (ministers, deputy ministers, ambassadors or CEOs), while their employment is at the level of 62%. In Lasy Pan´ stwowe women in top management positions account for only 7%, while they share in employment is 24%. Women are also less likely to be appointed to executive positions than men.

Celem opracowania jest odpowiedź na pytanie, dlaczego potrzebna jest unijna dyrektywa o kwotach ze względu na płeć w radach nadzorczych spółek giełdowych zatrudniających 250 lub więcej osób. W pierwszej części przedstawiono aktualne dane obrazujące udział kobiet wśród kierowników różnych szczebli. W analizie zostały wykorzystane m.in. wyniki najnowszych badań przeprowadzonych w administracji rządowej oraz w przedsiębiorstwie Lasy Państwowe w 2012 r. Wskazują one, że kobiety stanowią 20% kadry na stanowiskach najwyższego szczebla w administracji rządowej – wśród ministrów, wiceministrów, ambasadorów, dyrektorów generalnych, podczas gdy ich zatrudnienie w administracji centralnej jest na poziomie 62%. W wypadku przedsiębiorstwa Lasy Państwowe reprezentacja kobiet na najwyższych stanowiskach kierowniczych wynosi 7%, podczas gdy ich udział w zatrudnieniu – 24%. Kobiety mają mniejsze szanse na objęcie stanowiska kierowniczego niż mężczyźni, w tym w szczególności najwyższego szczebla. Wyniki przywołanych badań oraz analiza sytuacji w największych spółkach notowanych na giełdach w krajach unijnych stanowią istotny argument za wprowadzeniem parytetu lub kwoty na stanowiskach najwyższego szczebla w administracji centralnej, przedsiębiorstwach z udziałem skarbu państwa oraz spółkach publicznych.

The article presents the latest results of archaeological studies on the 8th-10th century hillforts in the Sudetes. The authors present previously unknown structures, found through the analysis of aerial scans using the ALS method. Excavation and office studies conducted since 2005 in the Sudetes also allowed for correcting the chronology of some previously known hillfort sites. The article also presents a discussion on the structures referred to as ‘quasi-hillforts’ and those considered to be destroyed. The findings are concluded by a summary of changes in the archaeological research of the early medieval Sudetes over the last 15 years, i.e. since the publication of the last monograph devoted to hillforts in this part of Central Europe.
