Modlniczka – the first cemetery of the Linear Pottery Culture in Poland in light of interdisciplinary analyses
The discovery of the first LBK cemetery, and a cremation one at that, is an exceptional fact not only for Poland, but also for the entire eastern edge of this culture. This discovery has significantly enriched our knowledge of the LBK burial rites, as until recently only individual graves and small burial complexes within or on the outskirts of settlements were known from the area of Poland. Therefore, it was particularly important to conduct a w…
Pattern in diversity; Grime’s Grave and Krzemionki, understanding commonality in flint mining across Europe
Across Europe, in the late 19th century, deep-flint mines dating to the Neolithic period were discovered. Since their discovery, it has been noted that the mines, located many kilometres apart, share common traits. Despite these connections, little research has compared the pan-European mining phenomenon. It is beyond this paper to review the numerous European mines, rather, two sites will be detailed: Krzemionki, southeast Poland, and Grime’s Gr…
Long-Distance Obsidian Conveyance During the Neolithic
In this article, the authors contend that three blades, archaeometrically identified as made of obsidian from the Nemrut Dağ source in eastern Anatolia, were recovered from bona fide archaeological contexts at two sites in Poland. This is supported by somewhat contentious contextual evidence, which is thoroughly reviewed. If the findspots are accepted as genuine, these artefacts would mark the furthest western distribution of Nemrut Dağ obsidian,…

Value, significance and use of 'exotic' materials – in the light of the presence of obsidian on Neolithic sites in Poland
At Neolithic archaeological sites in Poland, obsidian stands out as the most common ‘exotic’ raw material. Thereare over several hundred Neolithic sites where artefacts made from this raw material have been recovered. Given the absence of natural obsidian outcrops in Poland, it is evident that these artefacts were imported to the sites through various means, such as direct procurement or exchanges.One of the most extensive collections was found a…
Dr hab. Zofia Antonina Sulgostowska, prof. IAE PAN (13.06.1944–12.02.2023)
Prezentowany zbiór tekstów poświęcony jest pamięci niedawno zmarłej Profesor Zofii Sulgostowskiej, wybitnej specjalistki w zakresie prahistorii starszej i środkowej epoki kamienia. Składają się nań wspomnienia uczniów, współpracowników i przyjaciół Pani Profesor, związanych głównie z dwiema naukowymi instytucjami archeologicznymi (w których Pani Profesor była zatrudniona): Państwowym Muzeum Archeologicznym (dr Wojciech Borkowski, mgr Elżbieta Cie…
Verifying the chronology of Ukrainian Neolithic
This paper addresses the earliest Neolithic phases in Ukraine: aspects relating to the chronology, methods and time of Neolithisation. In general, the earliest Neolithisation relates to the times of the Linear Pottery culture. Nevertheless, Ukraine has numerous eco-zones so the process could have been different in other zones. The authors emphasize that the key to getting closer to solving this problem is the chronology-re-dating and validation p…
The use of phosphate minerals for determination of the provenance of flint used by prehistoric communities in East-Central Europe
Application of arsenic surveying for determining the position of former mining and metallurgical constructions
Soil geochemical prospecting is becoming an increasingly important part of archaeological research. Therefore, it is possible to determine the location of various archaeological facilities that no longer exist in the study region. In this study, a morphological analysis of the "Stara Góra" deposit in Radzimowice (Lower Silesia, Poland) was performed using LiDAR DTM (light detection and ranging digital terrain model) images and historical data tha…
Preliminary characterization of the prehistoric mine of chocolate flint in Poręba Dzierżna, site 24 (Wolbrom commune, Lesser Poland voivodeship)
Researches on prehistoric flint mines are currently widely developing, as they allow a deep insight into the past economy, early industry, and the network of trading routes and inter-regional contacts. In the territory of Poland and in general, Central Europe, one of the most important flint raw materials was an Upper Jurassic chert, so-called chocolate flint. In this paper are presented preliminary results of the research of chocolate flint mine…
Obsidian Source Use Within the Alföld Linear Pottery culture in Slovakia
This paper reports the results of non-destructive energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) analysis of 186 obsidian artifacts from eight archaeological sites attributable to the Alföld Linear Pottery Culture (c. 5600-4900 cal BC). This is the largest instrument-based study yet conducted and reported for Alföld Linear Pottery Culture (ALPC) artifacts from Slovakia, where ALPC chipped lithic assemblages are almost entirely composed of obsidian …
Chocolate flint
The discovery of previously unknown chocolate flint outcrops in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland (only the second known area after that in the Holy Cross Mountains) has undermined our seemingly solid knowledge of the prehistoric economy, which is based on the distribution pattern of this important raw material. The authors present new interdisciplinary research focused on the prehistoric mining of chocolate flint in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, th…
Between History and Archaeology
This paper presents the first comprehensive database for radiocarbon dates from European flint mines, result of reviewing a considerably dispersed literature. The database contains 476 radiocarbon dates relating to 56 mines in 14 European countries. Out of all, we have selected the earliest dates in order to review their quantity and quality. Our analysis suggests that Mesolithic and early Neolithic radiocarbon dates for European flint mines are …
Characterizing “Chocolate” Flint Using Reflectance Spectroscopy
The study details a pilot experiment in which samples of “chocolate’”flint from four procurement sites in Poland and chert from the United States were characterized spectrally and distinguished using reflectance spectroscopy and multivariate statistics. The characterization of ‘chocolate’ flint and the successful differentiation of sources has been, and continues to be, a major research focus for understanding prehistoric consumption, use, and di…

On the sources and uses of obsidian during the Paleolithic and Mesolithic in Poland
Flint artefacts from the Wielbark culture cemetery at Weklice, Site 7, Elbląg county
In the Bronze Age flint was still being used throughout Europe. In the early periods of that age flint continued to play an important role in the economy in many areas, as evidenced by the numerous flint mines in use at the time as well as flint tools. In the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages, flint still had an important place in the economies of communities living in East Central Europe. At the same time, analysis of late flint industries suggest…
The Application of the Multi-Layered Chert Sourcing Approach (MLA) for the Characterisation and Differentiation of ‘Chocolate Silicites’ from the Holy Cross Mountains, South-Central Poland
Chocolate silicites from the Świętokrzyskie (Holy Cross) Mountains in south-central Poland were widely used for stone tool production from Middle Palaeolithic times to the Early Iron Age. Their presence extends beyond Poland into lithic assemblages from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and eastern Austria. Outcrops of this material are situated within a narrow strip of Mesozoic (Upper Jurassic) sediments at the northeastern footslopes of the…
