The article summarizes 70 years of Polish research on archaeological textiles. Their beginning was associated with the discoveries of textiles during the Millennium research of the 1950s and 60s. Textiles were then studied above all by A. Nahlik, but also A. Urbańska, A. Niesiołowska-Wędzka, and J. Stanclik. In the 1970s and 1980s, the author was the only researcher of archaeological textiles in Poland (ones from the Roman period, as well as from the Middle Ages and the Post-Medieval period). Since the 1990s, M. Grupa and A. Drążkowska have dealt with textiles and clothing, mainly from crypts. In the 21st century at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology, Polish Academy of Sciences centre in Łódź, a team for research on old textiles (J. Maik, A. Rybarczyk, J. Słomska, Ł. Antosik) was established that cooperates in the study of the structure of textiles with textile industry employees (M. Cybulska), while in the study of dyes with chemists (M. Biesaga). This enables us to fully show the human – the creator, producer, and user of textiles.

Fortyfikacja Vietzer Schanze na szczycie wzgórza Höhbeck nad Łabą jest jednym z najważniejszych stanowisk archeologicznych z okresu karolińskiego. Historia badań nad tym stanowiskiem oraz jego społeczny odbiór odzwierciedlają zmiany, jakie zaszły na przetrzeni ostatnich 150 lat. Dziś marketing kultury w ramach turystyki kulturowej odgrywa znaczącą rolę w rozwoju strukturalnie słabych regionów wiejskich. Na przykładzie Vietzer Schanze przedstawiono koncepcję oceny potencjału obszaru pod względem walorów naturalnych i historyczno-kulturowych oraz ich ochrony.

The fortification Vietzer Schanze on top of the Höhbeck on the Elbe is one of the most important Carolingian archaeological monuments. The history of its exploration and social perception reflects the changes in the zeitgeist over the last 150 years. Today, the marketing of culture within the framework of cultural tourism plays a prominent role in the development of structurally weak rural regions. Using the Vietzer Schanze as an example, the implementation of a concept is presented that focuses on the sustainable valorisation of natural and cultural-historical values as well as sharing and protecting on an equal level.

Within the confines of the small Szekely village of Firtosváralja, on the Firtos Mountain, rising a thousand meters above sea level, a large quantity of Byzantine gold coins was found in 1831. Later these coins were sold out by their discoverers. Given this, it is hardly surprising that a hundred years later only sixteen specimens of coins from this hoard could have been identified. Since 1960, three more gold coins, kept in the Numismatic Cabinet of the National History Museum of Transylvania in Cluj-Napoca, have been identified as belonging to this modest collection. Although the coin assemblage from Firtosváralja entered scholarly literature and has repeatedly come up in issues of concerning the early medieval settlement history of Transylvania, there has been no source study relating either to the discovery of the hoard or to the coins themselves. After years of archival research in Romania and Hungary, it was now possible to track down some of the contemporary official reports on the find, which capture the true history of the discovery of the gold coins. It was also found that already in the mid-nineteenth century, several scholars from Transylvania dealt intensively with the hoard investigated here. Many descriptions and illustrations of hitherto unknown coins from Firtosváralja are among the preserved legacy of these researchers. Thus, the number of coins for which we now have a full set of data, or at least the information about the issuer, increased to 54 pieces. Eleven gold coins preserved to this day in the museums of Székelyudvarhely and Cluj as well as other issuances known thanks to pencil frottage drawings or wax impressions allow to describe precisely the group of coins of our interest here. The detailed analysis of the oldest information about the hoard proves that associating of the solidi of Emperor Maurice (582–602) and Heraclius (610–641) with the hoard from Firtosváralja is ambiguous; hence the issuances by Justinian the Great (527–565) are the youngest coins from this set. This means that the gold coins accumulated here since the 430s are likely to have been deposited much earlier than previously assumed. Based on this new-early-dating, an interpretation, hitherto not offered, of the late Roman-early Byzantine coin hoard of Firtosváralja is also presented.

Coeliac disease is a small intestine disorder caused by gluten intolerance. It has a long history and had developed when the humans started to cultivate grains. The first written records of coeliac disease come from the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, given by Aretaeus of Cappadocia. Samuel Gee gave the first clear description of this condition in 1888 and suggested dietary treatment with shellfish. In 1950 Wim Dicke prooved that the exclusion of wheat, rye and oats rom the diet led to improvement in coeliac patients. His collegues, Weijers and Van de Kamer stated that gluten is responsible for the disease, especially one of its fractions - gliadin. First description of histological abnormalities of the lining of the small intestine were presented by Paulley in 1954 and first description of per-oral biopsy technique was published in 1955 by Royer. In 1965 MacDonald established the hereditary nature of the disease. His followers in the 80’s and 90’s discovered the predisposing genes HLA-DQ2/DQ8. In 1983 Tadeusz Chorzelski described the immunological mechanism of coeliac disease and discovered the anti-endomysial antibodies, that serve as an immunological marker of the disease till present. Nowadays many research centres are performing studies aimed to facilitate the diagnosis and improve the dietary treatment.

Celiakia, inaczej choroba trzewna, jest chorobą jelita cienkiego, spowodowaną nadwrażliwością na gluten. Jej historia sięga czasów, kiedy zaczęto uprawiać zboża. Pierwsze zapiski na temat celiakii sporządził Areteusz z Kapadocji na przełomie I i II w. W 1888 r. Samuel Gee dokonał pierwszego pełniejszego opisu choroby, zaproponował leczenie dietetyczne skorupiakami. W 1950 r. Wim Dicke odkrył, że eliminacja z diety pszenicy, żyta i owsa prowadzi do poprawy klinicznej w celiakii. Z kolei jego współpracownicy, Weijers i Van de Kamer zauważyli, że gluten i jego frakcja zawarta w pszenicy – gliadyna, odpowiadają za chorobę. Pierwszy opis zmian histologicznych w celiakii w jelicie cienkim sporządził Paulley w 1954r., natomiast endoskopową technikę biopsyjną opisał Royer w 1955r. MacDonald dowiódł tła genetycznego choroby w 1965r., a jego następcy w latach 80-tych. i 90-tych. odkryli układ genów HLA-DQ2/DQ8 predysponujący do celiakii. W 1983r. Tadeusz Chorzelski opisał autoimmunologiczny charakter choroby i odkrył przeciwciała endomozyjalne służące do dziś w diagnostyce. Obecnie wiele ośrodków naukowych na świecie prowadzi dalsze badania, celem coraz lepszej diagnostyki i opieki nad chorymi.
