In the 20th anniversary of death of Professor Andrzej Nadolski Ph.D., students and friends will recall his accomplishments as well as his research and academic achievements. The organizers of this academic session are mostly weapon experts – heirs and successors of work of their late master. Professor A. Nadolski Ph.D. was not just an archaeologist and expert on medieval art of warfare, strategy and tactics, but he was also interested in the defense construction and material culture of the Middle Ages. Moreover, it should be remembered that he was a broad-minded researcher and scholar. Apart from the historical interests he had also a great knowledge of biology. He knew a rich world of winged beings, he had passionately documented existing species of butterflies and he would never turn a blind eye on any plant. He was also interested and engaged in social issues. He was actively involved in works of numerous boards, committees and scientific societies. He took part in sessions, debates and conferences both in Poland and abroad. He participated in international congresses and cooperated with filmmakers as an expert-consultant in the production of historical films. He was highly valued as an educator – a lecturer at several Polish universities. He was an eager supporter of popularization of historical science through the dissemination of knowledge about regional, national and common tradition. He believed that being aware of your own history is a responsibility of a cultured person and such knowledge has the effect on reinforcing of social bonds. As a member and a chairman of the Common Knowledge Society (Towarzystwo Wiedzy Powszechnej), he put in practice the implementation of science popularization ideas. During the World War II, Professor A. Nadolski Ph.D. took active part in actions of Home Army (Armia Krajowa) and defended his Country.

The Polish lands under the rule of Austria were referred to as Eastern Galicia. Inhabitants of these areas represented various social and professional groups. For many of them, collecting and archaeological research has become a subject of serious interest. In this area, inhabited for centuries by various nations, there are numerous ruins, burial mounds, embankments and castles. This multitude of traces of past cultures forced us to search. This became the reason for a wide interest in the past and the development of collecting. Thus, the object of interest of nineteenth-century archeology, in the eyes of many researchers, were all monuments of the past, understood as the entirety of pre-historical, ethnographic, written and other sources. Accordingly, archeology should study all the creations of human hands from different epochs; creations ranging from the simplest to artistic and artful, material remains and traces of beliefs, worship and literature. The scope of the researchers’ interests included ancient temples, monuments of armaments, classical antiquities, archival science, archeography, sphragistics and numismatics. In Ukraine and in other parts of the world, Poles lived and worked – in many economic and, of course – scientific fields. Many have devoted their attention, time and funds to searching for and studying traces of the distant past preserved in the ground. There are not many Polish publications about archaeological research conducted by Polish lovers of antiquity in eastern Ukraine, which were subject to tsarist Russia. This article attempts to fill this gap in the history of Polish archeology.

Na Ukrainie, jak i w innych stronach świata żyli i pracowali – w wielu dziedzinach gospodarczych i oczywiście naukowych – Polacy. Wielu też poświęciło swoją uwagę, czas i fundusze na poszukiwanie i badanie śladów odległej przeszłości zachowanych w ziemi. O badaczach i badaniach na terytoriach Ukrainy, Galicji Zachodniej, w Małopolsce pisali: Stefan Nosek, Zarys historii badań archeologicznych w Małopolsce (1967); Andrzej Abramowicz, Wiek archeologii (1967); są też starsze publikacje: Bohdan Janusz, Zabytki przedhistoryczne Galicji Wschodniej (1918); Marcyan Śmiszko, Kultury wczesnego okresu epoki cesarstwa rzymskiego w Małopolsce Wschodniej (1932). O badaniach archeologicznych prowadzonych przez polskich miłośników starożytności na terenach wschodnich Ukrainy, podlegających carskiej Rosji, polskich publikacji nie ma zbyt dużo (Abramowicz, 1970; Blombergowa, 1993). W moim artykule podejmuję próbę wypełnienia tej luki w dziejach historii polskiej archeologii.
