The article presents a set of sources connected with the Trzciniec culture settlement discovered in site 2 in Jeroniki, Choroszcz dis., Podlaskie Voivodeship During the research a very inspiring collection of materials associated with settlement was documented 29 immovable structures, plentiful pottery and flint material. An analysis of source dispersion allows for attempting a reconstruction of spatial organization and settlement structure during the older bronze epoch. Documented immovable structures constituted three relatively distinctive clusters which could be interpreted as homesteads and overlapping the spatial location of discovered pottery fragments. On the basis of a multi-aspect analysis of movable sources (primarily ceramic) the complex from Jeroniki should be associated with “classical” and/or “early-classical” stage of development Podlasie–Mazovia groups of the TC. They were also accompanied by “eastern” elements, as well as certain stylistic archaisms associated with the late stages of development of the Mierzanowice culture. One should, however, bear in mind the possibility of different dynamics in the development processes of the TC community in the north-eastern Poland. Tracking it would require studies based primarily on results of absolute dating. In this light, the presented materials could contribute to further analyses.

Analysed set of bones cones from two objects (no 11 and 13), excavated on a multi-cultural site in Smrokow, site 17, Kraków County. Materials discovered there can be dated to the II period of the Bronze Epoch, and are associated with the development of the Trzciniec Culture in the loess areas of the Lesser Poland Upland. Animal bone relics from Smrokow were subject to zoological analyses, which consisted of species and anatomical identification, quantitative assessment (bones and specimens), measurements of bones and estimating age, gender and size of animals, as well as observation of traces, patological changes and anomalies in bones. High proportion of domestic mammals bones in the material from Smrokow can indicate the main role played by animal husbandry in providing meat for food. It represents a low horse of the tarpan type, its built resembling that of medium-thick-legged and thick-legged horses.

During rescue excavations on the multi-cultural site no 17 in Smrokow (Krakow region) a pit no 13 was found, dating back to the times of the Trzciniec culture. At its bottom a well preserved skeleton of a horse in anatomical position was discovered, which made it a unique find. A larger number of the TC ceramics in the central part of the fill-in correlates with accumulations of animal bones and lime stones. The above mentioned vase found in an uncertain stratygraphic context represents index form for the early period of the classical TC phase in the Krakow region. They are most characteristic for the post-classical phase of the Trzciniec culture (phase C of the Bronze epoch). The TC finds of similar character are concentrated in Lesser Poland, particularly in the Krakow region. Single finds have also been discovered in Ukraine. Among animal bones horse remains are most frequently encountered. Considering small percentage of horse bones in sedimentary remains, it could indicate a special role of this animal in rituals of the TC communities.

The aim of the article is to present and analyse immovable finds and ceramic materials of the Mierzanowice, Trzicniec and Tarnobrzeg Lusatian cultures collected from site No. 1 in Wysoka, coming from trial excavations carried out in 1995. The uncovered ceramics indicate typical characteristics of the late phase of the Mierzanowice culture, the classical stage of development of the Trzciniec culture and the oldest phase of the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture. Research results in Wysoka, site 1 has also provided very important data on the specificity of settlement in the area of the Rzeszów Foothills.

The oldest horizon of the Trzciniec culture spanned over vast geographical areas and its graves may be distinguished by the presence of very specific vases and beakers (Fig. 1). The characteristic features of ceramics allow for distinguishing a group of burials with an early date. Such graves contained similar furnishings and they are known from nearly all parts of the Trzciniec cultural milieu in the area of Poland (Fig. 2–8). Parallel assemblages of archeological finds are also known from western Ukraine. The broad chronological span of the discussed notions may prove the hypothesis that they reflect a relatively short chronological horizon, probably limited to the 17th century BC. The funerary practices of the Trzciniec culture were very diverse already at the early stages of its development and included flat cremation graves with urns, pit-graves and diverse forms of both single and multiple inhumations. Inhumation and cremation graves have also been found in mounds.

Archaeological research at the site Tarnobrzeg 5 site was carried out by Jan Gurba and Marek Florek in 1992, uncovering settlement materials of the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture (TLC) and the Trzciniec culture (TC). The latter were not very numerous and representative, so they did not give grounds for a specific determination of the chronology. Undoubtedly, the most interesting artefact was a bronze sickle with a knob, referring to the III and IV period of the Bronze Age. The TLC materials, which almost entirely can be referred to the III phase of its development, turned out to be crucial for determining the chronology of the site. In terms of pottery forms, the most numerous were egg-shaped pots with holes under the edge of the rim, finger hollows and plastic strips. An interesting form was also a bowl on an empty leg. Both egg-shaped pots and a bowl with an empty leg may be evidence of Eastern cultural influences. It is also worth noting two fragmentarily preserved vases, which – as it seems – can be dated to the turn of the II and III phases of the TLC, which would indicate the existence of chronologically older material. Bronze and iron tweezers have also been recorded here, which may document the dissemination of iron.

The sites in question are located in the area of the edge and bottom of the Osetnica valley. The archaeological excavations prior to road construction, whose results are the topic of the present study, were carried out in 2006-2007. The site Gostynin 31 revealed a settlement of the Trzciniec culture, a settlement relic from the 15th century and household features from the late early modern period (end of the 17th and the first half of the 19th century. The site Gostynin 32 provided the possibility to explore the traces of the settlement of the Trzciniec culture, a rural settlement from the 17th century, traces of turf extraction from the 19th century as well as household facilities and a sand hole from the 1st half of the 20th century. Site 9 in Gaśno revealed a small settlement of the Lusatian culture, a settlement complex from the 15th century operating as the householdresidential backstore of a mill, household features from the late early modern period (18th century) and the contemporary times (20th century).
