The authoress insists that animal remains from Busówno stronghold demonstrate a certain distinction while compared to materials found at other fortified sites in eastern Poland. Sites such as Czersk, Sasiadka, or Tykocin represented an economy model focused on cattle meat consumption and more developed hunting. At all sites horse bones were more frequent, probably of animals hunted for their meat. It seems that a certain economic model in eastern Polish fortified sites may appear including frequent hunting for horses and other large animals. Besides, mostly beef was consumed, followed by pork, and more seldom, lamb. Busówno site was much more of rural life style with poorly developed hunting resulting in lower consumption of horse meat. However beef dominates, it is just followed by pork. Lamb frequency was significant, especially in stage II.

The number of studied and described sites from the Bronze Age from the territory of northeastern Poland is very small. The latest study of residual materials from the older period of the Bronze Age dates as far back as 80 years ago. This article constitutes therefore a significant improvement of the state of research in this region. Unfortunately the settlement model of the Bronze Age in northeastern Poland and the briefly functioning, small settlements from this time, which may even have been mere camps, do not provide a lot of materials, almost exclusively pottery. There were also two cremation graves probably connected to this settlement. The occurrence of single cremation burials in the direct vicinity of the settlement is similar to the situation observed in the Trzciniec sites from northern Mazovia. The features of the pottery items from Góra Strekowa suggest stronger links with the regions neighboring with Podlasie - western Belarus - rather than with well-explored Trzciniec sites from other regions of Poland. Faunal materials and vegetal macro-remains were also studied in the case of the settlement in Góra Strekowa.

In January 2019 a remarkable feature was explored during an archaeological rescue excavation in the village Modrá near Velehrad (Czech Republic). It was an oval-shaped pit with a diameter of approx. 210 × 170 cm and a preserved depth of 60 to 65 cm. Animal bones were found in the filling of the pit, most of which belonged to domestic animals – a dog, a horse, a pig and an ox. On the upper level of the pit filling, the skeleton of an adult individual was lying in a non-ritual position on its stomach, the skull was found against the wall of the pit about 60 cm from the cervical vertebrae of the spine. The skull of a domestic horse was also discovered in contact with the skeleton (partially covering it). Using the method of radiocarbon dating, the bones of the dog, the horse and the human individual were dated to the end of the 8th c. and the first third of the 9th c.

Following paper is focused on the occurrence of animal bones in the standard grave closed finds of the western enclave of the cultural complex of the southeastern urnfield cultures. The issue is elaborated with regard to the cremation burial ground of the Middle to Late Bronze Age in Radzovce, dist. Lučenec. It was excavated almost completely during the 20th century. With its 1334 unearthed graves it belongs to the largest necropolises of this period in Central Europe. In addition to human bones burnt, as well as unburnt animal bones were identified in 91 graves. Their occurrence is probably related to the specific practices of the burial rite - placing the portions of animal meat (food offerings/sacrificial gifts) either to a deceased on the pyre, or directly into the grave. To the validity of this interpretation similar archaeological finds indicate, as well as ancient and medieval written sources and ethnological observations of modern times. Analysed cattle, goat/sheep and pig bones are brought into the context with the inner chronology of the burial ground.

Archaeological research in the cadastre of the village of Rumanová (Nitra dist.) in the location of Tomanov háj was carried out in 2020 – 2021. The geophysical survey here partially delineated the edges of the medieval settlement, which, based on written sources, existed from the middle of the 12th to the beginning of the 15th c. A total of 16 housing estates, relics of the Tomanová (Tomáň) village, were uncovered. Based on the analysis of the ceramic material, it was possible to capture two time horizons of its settlement. An important discovery is a dwelling, perhaps a mansion, from the end of the 14th to the beginning of the 15th c. The examined animal remains prove the importance of domestic animal breeding and the predominant consumption of pork. A remarkable find is the partially preserved skeleton of a magpie (Pica pica), discovered on the floor of the basement area of the investigated dwelling.

In the present study, we deal with relatively numerous bone, antler and tooth artefacts of the Vekerzug culture, which come mainly from graves. Their settlement findings are yet less frequent because of limited state of publishing. Providing a more complex overview of these finds was at the centre of our interest, focused mainly on their cultural-spatial analysis, identifying the possible function of some types of artefacts and the analysis of decorative motifs on some bone/antler objects. In the Vekerzug culture, bone and antler artefacts are typological though less varied, but some of them like decorated hollow cylindrical objects, iron knives with a zoomorphic and/or geometric ornaments on the bone/antler grip and two-piece razors are its typical feature. Some types of weapons and their parts, horse harnesses, tools and toilet instruments were made of bone and antler. Pieces of bone and animal teeth were sometimes used for personal adornments. In the Vekerzug culture, the occurrence of some types of bone/antler artefacts we can associate with the influences from the eastern Hallstatt cultural milieu, while the eastern relations are rarely observed here.
