Rescue archaeology in Russia is full of contradictions. The apologetic approach to archaeology focuses solely on vast areas covered by excavations, discoveries and investments of millions. But the reality is more complex than that. This article addresses the transformations that took place in rescue archaeology in the 1980s, during “Perestroika”, and in particular in Moscow. Not everyone can withstand the temptation of money. Commercial interests have supplanted the Science in many cases, including that of Moscow. In the meantime, in many Old Russian cities (Pskov, Tver, Vladimir, etc.), the works were conducted in an exemplary manner, thanks to pre-existing traditions of research. Authorities’ demands to free land from the burden of archaeological heritage have led to shifting the focus of archaeological exploration now, identifying the boundaries of archaeological monuments became the key objective, a task that remains basically impossible, as said boundaries are of a purely formal nature. Excavations of empty spaces within archaeological sites have become typical for rescue archaeology and form modern “informational noise”. At the same time, archaeological research carried out on an unprecedented scale, even including the “empty” trenches, provide unique data on spatial and temporal structure of human activity, as exemplified by exploration of the Angara river banks during the construction of the Boguchany Dam.

Despite the commitments stemming from the Malta Convention, archaeological contractors in Poland have no legal obligation to disseminate their research. In consequence, the vast majority of the results, in particular those of rescue excavations, remain unpublished. For the team of the Profil-Archeo Publishing House, this disproportion became a stimulus for establishing a “Saved Archaeological Heritage” publishing series open to all parties involved in archaeological heritage protection in Poland. The overarching goal of the series is to provide public access to high-quality information about the heritage being destroyed - or rather the part that has been “saved” thanks to preventive excavations (a form of conservation by record). So far, seven volumes of the main series and three volumes of the “Miniatures” series have been published. In this paper, the authors report successes and problems related to the project, and postulate legal changes that should include, in particular, the obligation to publish the results of archaeological research.

In 2008, archaeological excavation was carried out in Ujście nad Notecią in the area of the stronghold and settlement beyond stronghold walls. As a result, cultural layers, wooden buildings and movable archaeological material have been discovered, which were preliminarily dated to the second half of the 10th – the first half of the 16th century. The article is an introduction to further studies.
