The paper discusses two iron artefacts — a sword guard and a cheek-piece discovered within a cultural layer at multicultural site No. 1 in Zamiechów, powiat Jarosław. A typolo-chronological analysis of analogous artefacts was made. It showed that both of these items should be correlated with the Migration Period, even though no features dated to that period were found at the site. These items are probably to be associated with the Huns milieu and the communities cooperating with it. Also, the possibility of penetration of these items into the inventory of the Przeworsk culture as the result of various kinds of interactions between the peoples living in the areas of not only Central European Barbaricum but also of Eastern Europe, Pontic zone or even Caucasian one cannot be excluded.

excavations at site 63 in Krzczonowice, are the subject of the present study. The site is located in the northern part of the Sandomierz Upland, south-eastern Poland. Shells of this type have been recorded in a small number of settlement features, which belong to the Globular Amphorae Culture. They unambiguously determine the character of the habitats around the site at the end of the Neolithic period. In the New Stone Age, the loess hill was deforested and then a xeromethric grassland Festuco-Brometea grew, where animals were pastured. Pasturing is an important factor in preventing the natural succession of shrubs. After pasturing ceased to be cultivated, the character of the habitat changed into a shrubby one. Thermophilous shrub clusters of Eastern Poland ,which enjoyed dry forest floor conditions, (Tilio-Carpinetum melittetosu) was later settled by the Bradybaena fruticum (Müll.) species. The xerophilous C. vindobonensis did not receive the proper conditions it needed so it withdrew from the area, this is confirmed by the lack of its remains within the settlement features from the early Iron Age and the Roman period. Molluscs play a vital role in drawing conclusions about the type of habitat used by man and as a “biological data record” they constitute an integral element of an archaeological site. They also leave a natural proof, which aids in the process of determining the cultural facts.

The current recognition of plant materials obtained from archaeological sites of the Linear Pottery Culture in the Upper Vistula basin made it possible to indicate the species that were cultivated and utilised by the Early Neolithic human communities. The data presented in this paper, referring to the occurrence of macroscopic plant remains of various types, was collected from 23 sites (97 identifi ed taxa). The analyses covered charred remains of plants, their imprints in daub and pottery, and fragments preserved within the mass of clay used for production of ceramic vessels. The results of these studies have delivered a great number of interpretative opportunities; apart from reconstructions of the environment and economic behaviours of fi rst farmers, these opportunities included the versatile application of plants, and clearly indicated that an application of plants and organic materials was highly diversifi ed and constituted the grounds on which human economy of the Early Neolithic was based.

The aim of the article is to present an attempt at typological classification of clay spindle whorls of the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture. It is a closely related category with textiles, but still quite often marginalized by archaeologists in the studies of the excavation materials. It is probably the effect of their commonness and obvious purpose. In opposition to such perception of this category of sources, a much broader aspect of the role of spindle whorls in phenomena of sociocultural and economic importance will be presented. Spindle whorls can be a starting point for research on the recognition and reconstruction of the weaving of the population of the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture, research on the chronology and cultural relations of the described taxonomic unit as well as research on its rituals and social structures.

The article presents the partial results of archaeological research carried out on the burgwall zolnik in Chotyniec, site 1. It aims to classify the historical objects discovered in terms of functional qualification – namely, the pins that were found in 2017-2019, and to introduce them into the scientific circulation. This interesting and relatively numerous series of artifacts complements and enriches our knowledge on many aspects of the zolnik’s function, including its chronology and cultural connections. In this sketch, an analysis of the typological and chronological position of the pins was carried out, and on its basis an attempt was made to estimate the dating of the zolnik (the usable levels that form it).

In 2016-2018 archaeological excavations were carried out on a large stronghold in Chotyniec, Jarosław district (south-eastern Poland), and they are still underway. Their results can already be deemed a breakthrough in understanding the cultural situation of the early Iron Age in the borderland area of central and eastern Europe. This article, which is the first broad presentation of the findings, indicates the connection of the site with the Scythian cultural circle. This is evidenced by many facts: the large strategically-located defensive complex with open settlements around it; the material culture (militaria, jewellery, pottery made according to the style in force in the eastern European forest steppe zone); and the ceremonial-ritual feature, i.e., the zolnik, with fragments of Greek wine amphorae found within it. The latter are the only finds of this type in Poland. The article also presents the significance of the discoveries in Chotyniec, both for the entire Scythian circle and for the interpretation of Scythian finds from the Vistula River basin.

During the motorway excavations carried out in 2010 in Korczowa, Jarosław dist., site 22, two zoomorphic items made of clay were discovered. These are: a fragment of a pendant and a fragment of a figurine. Figurative representations discovered at archaeological sites are associated with all possible forms of art. They are interpreted as objects of cult significance, children’s toys or manifestations of the magic sphere. The popularity of these representations and the influences of the „Eastern” cultures, especially the forest-stepped zone of the Scythian cultural circle, on the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture suggest that both the pendant and the figurine from site 22 in Korczowa should be associated with aforementioned cultural provenance.

The article is devoted to the find of a bronze socketed axe discovered in 2013 in Falejówka (Sanok district). The find was made on the top of Mount Wroczeń, several meters from the hoard of bronze items (Falejówka, hoard II), dated to HaA1. This artefact belongs to the so-called “beaked” or “horned” axes, but none of the numerous specimens of this type is an exact equivalent of the discussed find. Stylistic features – primarily the characteristic trident motif decorating it, which occurs on axes discovered mainly in today's Hungary – allow the item from Falejówka to be dated HaA1-HaB1. The quality of the casting proves that the axe was made with good knowledge of the mould technology and the processes of smelting and pouring the liquid alloy, using bronze with a low tin content. As for its composition, metals derived from sulphide ores, mainly antimony, have also been identified.

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.

The article characterizes statistical population of Lviv in 1919-1939, particularly referring to the Jews. It describes quantity, ethnic, religious and socio-professional structure of Jewish population, their age and the level of education. Lviv was particularly important center of political and educational life in the Second Polish Re-public. According the results of state censuses, one may conclude that three dominant nations in Lviv used to be the following: Poles, Jews and Ukrainians. Germans, Czechs and Russians constituted smaller percentage. Minorities accounted for abo-ut 50% of the total population of Lviv. Almost 50% of the population constituted Roman Catholics – Poles, 31,5-35% – followers of Judaism – Jews, and 9,2-12% – Greek Catholics – Ukrainians. The characteristic feature of social and professional structure of Lviv was the dominance of Poles. In second place, in the social hierarchy were Jews, dealing mainly with trade. Ukrainians occupied the last place in the social and professional structure. Lviv in the interwar period was a multicultural city and the center of Polish, Ukrainian and Jewish political and cultural life in the south-eastern part of Poland.

Artykuł charakteryzuje statystyczną ludność Lwowa w latach 1919-1939, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem Żydów. Opisano strukturę ilościową, etniczną, wyznaniową i społeczno-zawodową ludności żydowskiej, jej wiek i poziom wykształcenia. Lwów był szczególnie ważnym ośrodkiem życia politycznego i oświatowego w II Rzeczypospolitej. Na podstawie wyników spisów powszechnych można stwierdzić, że we Lwowie dominowały trzy następujące nacje: Polacy, Żydzi i Ukraińcy. Mniejszy odsetek stanowili Niemcy, Czesi i Rosjanie. Mniejszości narodowe stanowiły ok. 50% ogółu mieszkańców Lwowa. Prawie 50% ludności stanowili Polacy wyznania rzymskokatolickiego, 31,5-35% – wyznawcy judaizmu – Żydzi, a 9,2-12% – Ukraińcy wyznania greckokatolickiego. Cechą charakterystyczną struktury społecznej i zawodowej Lwowa była dominacja Polaków. Na drugim miejscu w hierarchii społecznej znajdowali się Żydzi, zajmujący się głównie handlem. Ostatnie miejsce w strukturze społeczno-zawodowej zajmowali Ukraińcy. Lwów w okresie międzywojennym był miastem wielokulturowym oraz centrum polskiego, ukraińskiego i żydowskiego życia politycznego i kulturalnego w południowo-wschodniej części Polski.
