The Institute of Archaeology of Ш 4 university has been conducting the complex archaeological investigations of the urban aglomeration in Włocławek since 1976.The purpose of these works is to receive a full picture of the significance site by confronting the archaeological sources with the historical, Cartographical ones and with the . architectonical ascertainments. The first stage of research covers the investigation of the medieval town, i.e. present Old Town. The former investigations were concentrated within the Old Market, where the gothic church of St. John, built in 1538, is situated. They aimed at stating whether this church - according to the accepted M. Morawski'a opinion ~ was founded upon, or contains inside, the fragments of the earlier, it is believed, romanistic St. John's church. In a course of the excavations carried out. in the ditches running along the Southern wall of an apse and along the northern wall of the church between the aisle and sacristy no remains of the earlier wall of stones or bricks were rövealed. Moreover, the finds gained during the iarchaeological works in the Old Market allow one to date the beginnings of local habitation to the late 13th and 14th century. After having confronted the above ascertainments with the written sources one can suppose that the earlier St. John's church must have been situated closer to the stronghold, i.e. on the area of the earlier habitation datable» prior to the 13th century. This hypothesis is moreover supported by the regularities in development of Włocławek habitation, which extended along the West-East line, i.e. from the stronghold towards the Old Town.

The programme of verifying earthworks in Great Poland is being continued by the Centre for the Archaeology of Great Poland of the Institute for History of Material Culture, Polish Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with Provincial Conservators of Monuments. After initial verification the Kalisz province is now being investigated for earthworks by means of sounding and boring works. Verification and sounding of a feature at Czarny Sad are part of the programme. The feature is known in relevant literature as an early medieval ring-shaped earthwork, roughly dated to phase D, yet not excavated so far. The earthwork is circular in shape. 60 m or so across, with the rampart still standing to a height of 3-4 m, and is surrounded by a moat 8-10 m wide. An excavation trench, 10 x 2.5 m in size, was located along the N S axis running from the top o f the rampart to the enclosed space. About 487.5 m3 of the overlay and cultural layers have been explored yielding 362 potsherds, 34 pot-shaped tile fragments, a fragmentary horseshoe, fragment of a knife-handle and animal bones. The excavations revealed two phases of occupation: the first phase datable to 950-1050 is associated with the rampart of crossed logs build and with the lowest usage level of the enclosed space. The jecond phase should be assigned to the 15th-17th centuries and linked with the presence of a brick(?) manor-house which was probably built after the reshaping of the earthwork, indicated by the surviving levelling layers.
