This paper provides an overview of some possible stages in the evolution of syntax. It is argued, following Heine & Kuteva (2007), Jackendoff (1999), Johansson (2005), and Burling (2002), that syntax developed gradually through clearly identifiable developmental stages, not as maintained by Bickerton (1990) in one fell swoop.

Niniejszy artykuł zawiera przegląd możliwych etapów w ewolucji syntaksy. Autorka twierdzi, opierając się m.in. na badaniach takich uczonych, jak: Heine & Kuteva (2007), Jackendoff (1999), Johansson (2005) i Burling (2002), że syntaksa rozwijała się stopniowo, a nie jak utrzymuje Bickerton (1990) za jednym zamachem.

The Nature Education Centre of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow has in its collection a spectacular fossil of a Jurassic crinoid, in literature known as Seirocrinus subangularis (Miller). Only several museums in Central Europe can boast such a perfectly preserved and complete specimen of Seirocrinus. As seen against Polish museum collections the slab in question is an outstanding object. That very form was a cosmopolitan and pseudoplanktonic crinoid species spread throughout Asia, Europe, and Northern America, yet it has never been documented in Poland. The particular specimen reached Poland in the mid-19th century from Germany to enrich the collection of the Mineralogical Cabinet. The paper presents the turbulent history of the slab with some dozen specimens of echinoderms on it, the story which will shortly have a happy end, since it will be permanently placed as a geological exhibit at the Nature Education Centre of the Jagiellonian University.
