Metal casting moulds in Bronze Age and Early Iron Age Poland. Current state of research
This article presents the first comprehensive study of metal casting moulds from the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age discovered within present-day Poland. These artefacts, primarily made of tin bronze and unalloyed copper, were used in the direct casting of socketed axes, ornaments, and weapons. Drawing on recent discoveries, the study examines their technological characteristics, metal composition, and spatial distribution. Particular attention is…
Cross-crafting in standardized and customized metallurgy. Some examples from Bronze Age Poland
Early Iron Age hoard from Jodłowno, Northern Poland
The hoard from Jodłowno, near Gdańsk, about 27 km from the coast of the Baltic Sea in northern Poland, was found in 2021. The hoard, comprising 68 metal artefacts, was accidentally discovered during an authorised metal detector survey in the area. Its upper part was disturbed upon discovery, but the lower one has remained intact, enabling the reconstruction of the finds’ position within the deposit. The hoard included four cast hollow ankle rings…
Siekierka z piętką typu nordyjskiego „ze Szczecina”. Głos w dyskusji na temat obecności replik w zbiorach muzealnych
Do Muzeum Okręgowego im. Stanisława Staszica w Pile w 2003 r. została przekazana siekierka z piętką typu nordyjskiego. Siekierki tego typu nie występują na terenie Polski. Stan zachowania przedmiotu, charakteryzujący się licznymi uszkodzeniami, mógł być związany z miejscem jego pozyskania (skup metalu). Niedokładny sposób wykonania ornamentu może wskazywać, że siekierka nie jest oryginalnym zabytkiem archeologicznym, ale współczesną kopią. Przepr…

More Bronze Age less bronze
A Late Bronze Age hoard from Karmin, Poland, contained 16 socketed axes, half of which were made of copper. The copper axes represent the same local type as the bronze objects and bear the same traces of manufacturing and use. The authors argue that the move to copper was a response to unexpected difficulties in the tin supply
Sutry jako źródło weryfikacji bezpośredniego wglądu w tradycji buddyzmu chan
The article discusses the connection between Chan Buddhism and the study of the Sutras and Å astras. The first part shows the prevalent view according to which Chan negates the value of texts, focusing only on the direct experience. The author then shows the historical dependence of this view and its lack of compatibility with many Chan Buddhist schools. In the later part, the author discusses the Wenzi Chan current and, based on its postulates, …
Functions and contexts of Bronze Age metal casting moulds from Poland
Les moules en métal, élaborés essentiellement en vue de produire un seul type d’artefact, constituent un groupe d’objets fascinant qui a été documenté dans beaucoup de régions de l’Europe à l’âge du Bronze. Bien qu’il existe des exemples de moules ayant été destinés à la fabrication de parures, l’usage de moules métalliques est très fortement lié à la production de haches. De plus, la plupart des moules ont été déposés intentionnellement dans des…
