An iron spearhead accidentally found in 2020 in the woods of Rudnik nad Sanem, was initially described as a piece of the spear and dated, on the basis of its shape, back to the Middle Ages, most probably to 10th–13th century. In the course of conservation work the remains of wood from the socket were restored. Wood species analysis revealed that the shaft was made of maple tree. C14 dating shows that it originated from Modern Period, most likely from the 17th century. In light of these discoveries one should conclude that the spearhead was not part of a spear, but of a javelin used as a hunting weapon, probably in the 17th century.

The fishpond cultivation presents one form of the fishery. Though its roots go into the Middle Ages, its dominant rise in today Slovakia is connected to the 15th and 16th century. Due to the anti-Habsburg uprisings and Osman occupation during the 17th century many fishponds became extinguished. This study tries to propose the method how to reconstruct the location, extent and time of destruction of these fishponds on the example of the Červený Kameň domain in SW Slovakia.

Kościuszko Street in Rzeszów, leading from the market square to the main promenade, is considered to be one of the oldest streets in the city. In the late Middle Ages and the early Modern Period, it connected the city centre with the parish church, where the first owners of Rzeszów rest. In the course of the archaeological watching brief conducted during the reconstruction of the street, it was possible to collect a significant number of artefacts related to the everyday life of the city (e.g. tiles, glass objects, coins, horseshoes). The subject matter of this article is a selection of footwear pieces and the items directly related to them. The research gives an opportunity to get to know better the material culture and tastes of the inhabitants of Rzeszów.

The goal of the archaeological research was to verify the original location of the former town of Ryczywół (Fig. 1–3), situated near the outlet of the Radomka River to the Vistula River, and to reconstruct the network of its streets. The research included surface prospection combined with the verification of data obtained from a LiDAR analysis and geophysical surveys (Fig. 4, 5). As a result of the application of integrated research methods, the location of the so-called Old Ryczywół – for years erroneously placed at the location of the present-day outlet of the Radomka to the Vistula – was identified. Based on the analysis of the pottery, it was also discovered that the majority of the archaeological sites found earlier in this area are multicultural (Fig. 6). Among others, a settlement of the Lusatian Culture from the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age, a cemetery of the Lusatian Culture and a burial ground of the Cloche Grave Culture from the Early Iron Age, as well as a vast settlement of the Przeworsk Culture from the Roman Period were all registered here. It can be assumed that this area was attractive to man as a place of settlement since the dawn of history, and the trade route mentioned in the medieval and later sources most probably passed through there also in Antiquity
