‘Here Szela, the hero, was made’. Selected Issues From the 19th Century Scientific Discourse Around the Forest Germans
The article is concerned with the changes undergone by the Polish scientific discourse (mainly ethnographic) on the phenomenon of the so-called ‘Forest Germans’ (in Polish: Głuchoniemcy) in the 19th century, i.e. from the late Enlightenment to 1914.

The purpose of the article is to reconstruct the biography of this concept and to conduct its etymological analysis based on its oldest known records, mainly from Old Polish manuscripts and old prints. Above all, the authors focus on the source by the 18th-century encyclope…
A sign of identity, power, and protection. Some remarks on the nonmilitary role of shields in the Przeworsk culture in the Early and Middle Roman Periods
Our knowledge of shields in Celto-Germanic societies north of the Danube River – especially among people of the Przeworsk Culture, the most ‘militarized’ archaeological culture in this part of Barbaricum – comes mainly from archaeological sources dated to the beginning of the Roman Period (mainly the first three centuries AD), as well as ancient texts (especially Tacitus’ works). However, due to the incompleteness of material relics (lack of wood…
