This study contains information about flint materials discovered at the site 1 in Wysoka, Łańcut commune. This inventory consists of 57 items. Most of them were discovered in the context of features of the Mierzanowice culture. They are made mainly of Świeciechów flint, and they are of typical Early Bronze Age flintwork nature (half-products of bifacial axes, backed blade knife). In addition, not numerous Neolithic artefacts of the Malice culture were discovered there.

The subject of the study is a collective find of three axes discovered in 1964 during excavation research at the multicultural site VII in Klementowice, Kurów commune, Puławy dis-trict, Lublin voivodeship, in the north-western part of the Nałęczów Plateau. Two artefacts (with quadrilateral section and bifacial) are made of banded flint and one (with quadrilateral section) – of Świeciechów flint. These raw materials come from deposits exploited in the Neolithic period in mines of the Świętokrzyski region of the prehistoric flint mining. Despite the existing doubts, these axes should be combined with the Funnel Beaker culture, its southeastern group.
