The present paper summarizes the state of research of the flint technology belonging to the Early Bronze Age in the Lesser Poland loessic areas. With the analyses of representative materials from the most important settlements, cemeteries and mines, an attempt has been made to verify the current identification criteria for the flint artefacts of the concerned period. The observations allow for the construction of a theoretical model which connects to the manufacturing of bifacial daggers and sickles as well as with the spezialization of their production. The fact that these tools were made continuously for several centuries, may be attributed to some special social mechanisms in which technology teachers played an important role. This model was based on selected conceptions of social psychology.

For the Mierzanowice culture from western Lesser Poland, the settlement in Iwanowice, Babia Góra site, is a chronological benchmark. A large number of datings obtained for objects from Jarosław, site 158, Podkarpackie province, provides grounds for treating that settlement as a model one in the eastern range of the Mierzanowice culture. The radiocarbon dating and ceramic design features allow them to be placed in a wide chronological frame of 2200–2000 BC

This study contains information about flint materials discovered at the site 1 in Wysoka, Łańcut commune. This inventory consists of 57 items. Most of them were discovered in the context of features of the Mierzanowice culture. They are made mainly of Świeciechów flint, and they are of typical Early Bronze Age flintwork nature (half-products of bifacial axes, backed blade knife). In addition, not numerous Neolithic artefacts of the Malice culture were discovered there.

The paper presents an analysis of the Mierzanowice Culture settlement at the multicultural site 2 in Zagórze. A sepulchral feature with grave goods was discovered there (no. 3122), as well as 20 pottery fragments found in secondary context (in features, cultural layers and natural layers). The sepulchral feature did not contain a skeleton, and the grave goods included a fragment of a copper object and two flint arrowheads found in the central part of the pit. Although the grave cannot be dated precisely on the basis of the grave goods, loose pottery fragments discovered at the site are chronologically attributable to the classical and the late phase of the Mierzanowice culture.

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.

Przemyśl 20 site is an important research point of the early medieval city. Archaeological research confirmed the existence of intensive settlement before this time. During field works, two parts of a casting mold for the production of axes, 17 cm long, 7.5 cm wide and 4 cm thick, were found at the bottom of the settlement layer. On the discovered form, no traces of copper were observed, on the outside were visible signs of burnout. This form is the only find of this type in Poland and ascibed to the Mierzanowice culture. petrographic tests performed using polarizing and scanning microscopes as well as microapaleontological examinations allow the identification of the mold material as spongiolite (spiculite), most likely from the vicinity of przemyśl, where the outcrops of this rock are located. Considering the results of micropaleontological research, it is not possible to unequivocally interpret whether the material from which the foundry mold was made comes from works classified as radiolar shale formations from Barnasiówka, or from silicoclastic turbidites rich in sponge spicules. with high probability it can be stated that this material comes from the upper part of the Lgota beds covering the abovementioned lithostratigraphic units. The type of raw material used meets the conditions for using it as a casting mold. The obtained data allow to conclude about the local production of this form.

The article presents the results of rescue excavations carried out in August 2018, at the archaeological site Łowce 17. The site is located on the extreme promontory of the loess lobe, extending at an altitude of 210m above sea level, near the riverbed of the Łęg Rokietnicki River. The value of this place has been confirmed several times by surface surveys, which provided the evidence of artefacts from the Neolithic period, Bronze Age, Roman influence and Early Middle Ages. In the course of excavations, an area of one are was examined. After removing the surface layer, an accumulation layer was recorded at the level of 40 cm, with numerous Neolithic and Bronze Age materials, together with an iron artefact. Below, at a level of about 50 cm, a layer of yellow loess was uncovered, in which features of the Mierzanowice culture, the Tarnobrzeg Łużycka culture and features of unknown chronology were recorded. In total, 20 features of an economic nature were registered, containing ceramic, flint and stone artefacts in their fills, as well as burnt daub and animal bones were noted. Moreover, secondary deposited material was observed in some features. In the next stage of research, the obtained materials were analyzed, which were mainly represented by pottery vessels. The research included the analysis in terms of technology, morphology and ornamentation, based on macroscopic characteristics. As a result of these observations, an attempt was made to determine the relative chronology, distinguishing the ceramics of the Funnel Beaker culture, the Globular Amphora culture, the Mierzanowice culture, the Trzciniec culture and the Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture. The assessment of the cultural affiliation of flint materials was difficult due to the uncharacteristic forms or lack of context. With reference to artefacts coming from the accumulation layer, a miniature axe/chisel made of Volyn flint was found, which can be attributed to the activities of the TRB and an iron axe/adze with undetermined chronology. As a result of the research, it was possible to confirm the high importance of site No. 17 in Łowce, which was a settlement enclave from the Middle Neolithic period to the Early Middle Ages. The studied area was part of the settlement of the Mierzanowice culture and Tarnobrzeg Lusatian culture. Certainly the following years of research will provide a lot of valuable information about the settlement of these communities and the importance of the region.

In the autumn of 2016 a geomagnetic survey was conducted in Skołoszów, site. 7, Dist Jarosław. The magnetic prospection took place on a low hill spanning 2.12 ha in total. Distribution of the anomalies, as visible on a map depicting obtained data, reflects numerous structures related to human activity in the area during the prehistory and historic times. Among them are two features interpreted as residues of funerary rituals taking place at the site. One of them pertains to Middle Neolithic earthen long barrow, whereas the second by its shape resembles Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age tumuli. Apart from the latter, one can discern numerous anomalies potentially related to pits and ditches. Interpretation of the geophysical imagery was based upon the results of excavations conducted in 2010 in the nearby section of Skołoszów, site 7. In the process, funeral structures in the types of earthen long barrow and a presumable tumulus were recorded. Thus, it is possible to confront observations inferred from the results of non-invasive, magnetometric survey, with data obtained by means of more direct exploratory methods. Besides the prehistoric record, our investigation resulted in reconstruction of the trenches most probably dating to the First World War.

During rescue excavations at the site Mucharz 12 carried out due to building of the water reservoir at Świnna Poręba on the border of the Middle and Small Beskidy Mts. unexpectedly traces of the Late Paleolithic settlement of Świdry culture were discovered, among them remains of two dwelling features. Besides them the site provided numerous Mesolithic artifacts, traces of Neolithic settlement, assemblages representing two different variants of Bronze Age Mierzanowice culture and finally remains connected with medieval occupation. Studies on stone artifacts demonstrated that mainly during the Mesolithic period local deposits of Mikuszowice hornstone were exploited. Presence of the artifacts made of raw materials coming from some distance sources (e.g. Jurassic flint) was confirmed as well. Presented results put new light on the problem of detectability of archaeological sites within mountain zones of southern Poland, as well as on the character of prehistorical settlement traces on the territory.

The article constitutes a further part of the study of the results of excavations carried out by the Kraków Saltworks Museum in Wieliczka (Muzeum Żup Krakowskich Wieliczka–MŻKW) at the multicultural archaeological site No. 8 in Zakrzów, Niepołomice township (AZP 103-58/24). The paper consists of two parts. The first analyses a series of fragments of the pottery of the Mierzanowice culture and the Lusatian culture from the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. The second part of the article presents artefacts from the La Tène period, the younger phase of the pre-Roman period, the period of Roman influence, and the Migration Period. The materials presented in both parts are loose artefacts, no features related to the abovementioned periods were recorded during the work. The reported series of finds is small in relation to the larger sites located in the vicinity of Zakrzów site 8, but may complement the information obtained from these.

Artykuł stanowi dalszą część opracowania wyników badań wykopaliskowych prowadzonych przez Muzeum Żup Krakowskich Wieliczka w Wieliczce (MŻKW) na wielokulturowym stanowisku archeologicznym nr 8 w Zakrzowie, gm. Niepołomice (AZP 103-58/24). Praca składa się z dwóch części. W pierwszej poddano analizie serię fragmentów ceramiki kultury mierzanowickiej oraz kultury łużyckiej z epoki brązu i wczesnej epoki żelaza. W drugiej części artykułu opisano zabytki pochodzące z okresu lateńskiego, młodszej fazy okresu przedrzymskiego, okresu wpływów rzymskich oraz okresu wędrówek ludów. Materiały przedstawione w obydwu częściach stanowią zabytki luźne, w trakcie prac nie odnotowano obiektów nieruchomych związanych z wyżej wymienionymi okresami. Opracowana seria znalezisk jest niewielka w stosunku do większych stanowisk znajdujących się w okolicy Zakrzowa st. 8, jednak może stanowić uzupełnienie do pozyskanych z nich informacji.
