In 2004-2006, excavations were continued at the biritual cemetery of the Częstochowa-Gliwice sub-group of the Upper Silesian-Little Poland group of the Lusatian culture at Zbrojewsko site 3. An area of 9.8 ares were uncovered and 64 objects were explored. In 2004-2005, the research aimed to catch the northern boundary of the cemetery. It was confirmed that in the north-western the border of the cemetery constitutes the valley of a small stream. However, the research failed to find the north-eastern boundary, although objects recorded in this area were not so numerous. Graves dated at the fourth period of the Bronze Age still dominated there. In 2006, excavations were carried out on the southern outskirts of the cemetery, at the edge of the first terrace level of the Liswarta River. The discovery of 31 graves confirmed previous suspicions that in this area there may be another large concentration of graves from the youngest Bronze Age, analogous to those already identified in the northern and western parts of the cemetery. Among the objects studied there were 23 cremation graves (usually pit graves), and seven or eight skeletal ones (one perhaps symbolical). Most of the graves had stone structures. Two urn graves can be dated to the fourth period of the Bronze Age, while all the other graves, discovered in 2006, to the fifth period.

The phenomenon of functioning of fortified settlements of late Bronze Age and early Iron Age in northern Podlasie (North-Eastern Poland) is a relatively new research problem, on which the knowledge is a result of research conducted in the last several years. The aim of the paper is to present the preliminary results of the interdisciplinary research of the Jatwieź Duża site (district of Suchowola, Sokółka County, Podlaskie voivodeship). The research area is located in the Podlaskie voivodeship in the Brzozówka valley (left tributary of Biebrza River), in the Biebrza Basin. The described site is characterized by an oval form of anthropogenic origin, which indicates a permanent or temporary settlement in the prehistory. This object is one of many similar forms currently being discovered in Podlasie region.This form is build by two distinct trench rings separated by earth embankment and a central flat elevation with a diameter of about 60 m. A geophysical survey (geomagnetic and GPR) was carried out. They registered a series of anomalies, forming two rings which relate to the relief of the site. Archaeological excavation was made in the north-west direction. It was 25 m long and 2 m wide, crossing the embankment and both trenches.. In the course of archaeological excavations, ten objects were discovered with fragments of ceramics and a few flint tools. Preliminary results of archaeological research indicate that this structure was use by the communities of Urnfield culture in the Bronze Age.

In the seasons 2004 and 2006, interdisciplinary researches at the settlement of the early phase of Eastern Linear Pottery Culture at Moravany were continued. Archaeological excavations have limited spatial dimension compared to previous seasons, as a priority in the years 2004-2006 was the completion of the palaeoeconomic, paleoenvironmental and chronological analyses. I.a. 14 new radiocarbon dates were obtained. In conjunction with the absolute dates obtained previously and with typological evidence it gives rise to dating of the settlement for a period between about 5500 and 5300/5200 BC.
