Linear Pottery Culture pottery workshop in the Upper Vistula River basin
Ceramics, as the first fully artificial material created by humans, serve as a sensitive indicator of technological and socio-cultural processes in prehistory. Analysis of the operational sequence ( chaîne opératoire ) reveals the level of technical knowledge and internal organization of past communities, while technological and stylistic variability in pottery reflects both social boundaries and mechanisms of knowledge transmission and cultural …
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…
An Early Iron Age Female Funeral Site in the Ukrainian Forest-Steppe
The article reports the results of research focused on Barrow 3 in Ivanivtsi-Antonivka, Vinnitsia oblast, Ukraine, which was carried out by a Polish-Ukrainian team in 2019. This small and badly damaged barrow contained just seven features, including only two graves. The results of the multifaceted analyses indicated that despite the small number of sites, the history of the barrow can be divided into three phases – all resulting from the activity…
Searching for islands of happiness – LBK settlement at Cząstków Polski site XII, Czosnów Commune in Mazovia, Central Poland
Loose finds associated with the LBK have long been recovered during surveys in the Warsaw Basin, Mazovia. Most often, they have been interpreted as remnants of short stays of LBK communities migrating northwards along the Vistula River, or as stopping points of expeditions southwards for flint. Rescue excavations at Cząstków Polski site XII, Czosnów commune, although carried out on a small scale, provide the first possibility of a comprehensive m…
The oldest farmers’ settlement from Poland. New interdisciplinary data on chronology and economy from the Gwoździec site
In der zweiten Hälfte des 6. Jahrtausends v. Chr. wanderten die ersten mit der Bandkeramik verbundenen Bauern aus und ihre Kultur verbreitete sich in die Gebiete nördlich der Karpaten. Bisher hatte man angenommen, dass diese frühneolithische Ausbreitung in einen Zeitraum um ca. 5500–5400 v. Chr. fällt, was sich vor allem auf vergleichende Studien der stilistischen Merkmale der Keramik stützte. Seit einiger Zeit gibt es jedoch bei zahlreichen Fors…

Technology and raw material analysis of Linear Pottery culture ceramics from the Eastern Carpathians, Romania
Only a few Neolithic settlements attributed to the Linear Pottery culture 5100-4850 cal. BC) are known from the Sub-Carpathian area of Eastern Romania. From the Neamţ Depression, settlements were known from Târpeşti and recently from Topoliţa. The aim of the presented analyses was to determine data regarding ceramic technology at the Topoliţa site and to compare it with LBK ceramic technology in neighbouring areas. It was found that ceramic produ…
Early Neolithic red-painted pottery from the Prandocin site, southern Poland. Indirect transfer in a technological context
The paper presents the results of specialized research on a small collection of artefacts of the Linear Pottery Culture in southern Poland. Among the 27 pottery fragments discovered at the Prandocin Site 1, a few painted fragments were identified. Such kind of painting style directly relates to the Želiezovce group of this culture in western Slovakia. Painted vessels are rarely found in the context of the Linear Pottery Culture in Lesser Poland (…

The Early Neolithic Cultural Transformation in the Targowisko Settlement Region, SE Poland
The aim of the article is to characterize the early Neolithic settlement region of Targowisko in SE Poland. It is located on the northern edge of the Western Carpathians, 30 km east of Krakow. It functioned during the development of the entire Linear Pottery culture (LBK) and the subsequent Malice culture (MC), in the period from 5300 to 4500 BC. The focus was on the cultural transformation at the turn of the 6 th to the 5 th millennium BC. Cases…
Technological indicators in the pottery production of the late Linear Pottery culture and the Malice culture
This study aimed to reveal the transformations in pottery production in the Linear Pottery culture. In the course of longstanding analyses of archaeological materials from Lesser Poland, a few technological groups of this pottery were distinguished. A significant change in the preparation of ceramic fabrics was recorded in the late LBK phase, namely the Želiezovce phase. The objective of this study was to gather all data and confront it with the …
Changes in Late Funnel Beaker Pottery at the End of the 4th Millennium BC on the Polish Lowland
Archaeological site no. 3 at Mrowino is located on the Polish Lowland, in the Greater Poland region. It was excavated from 1973 until 1980. The excavation produced very rich movable finds, with the core of them being formed by Funnel Beaker culture (FBC) ceramics. The collections hold over 37,500 FBC pottery shards and several intact or reconstructed vessels. The vast majority of pottery comes from an FBC settlement dated to 3300-3150 BC. The pot…
Unique pottery kiln construction? The interpretation of massive clay objects from the Trostianchyk site of the Trypillia culture
The article considers the characteristics of truncated-pyramidal and discal type clay objects that were found in pit 1 at the Trostianchyk site (Vinnytsia oblast, Ukraine) of BII Trypillia stage. The context, location and chronology of these artifacts are characterized. On the basis of ethnographic evidence, the interpretation of the clay objects as movable constructive elements of a pottery kiln is given. We assume that such kilns are the archai…
The technology of LBK ceramics in eastern Romania
The paper shows selected aspects of the technology of ceramic production within the Linear Pottery culture (LBK) in eastern Romania. The authors present the results of mineralogical and petrographic analyses which have covered 23 ceramic samples from that area. Together with the analysis of 6 samples from the neighbouring Republic of Moldova, the research has provided the basis for more general conclusions concerning prehistory. The results of th…
Microscopic Analysis of Pottery Fragments from the Corded Ware Culture at Sites 11, 15 and 20 in Święte, Jarosław District
For microscopic examination, 22 pottery fragments from sites 11, 15 and 20 in Święte, Jarosław District were selected. The pottery types included beakers (N=19) and amphorae (N=3). The goal of the petrographic analysis was to identify mineralogical composition of ceramic fabric, sources of raw materials, and intentional additives to the clay. The analysis yielded data that helped determine ceramic fabrics types and preparation methods, as well as…
The selection of ceramic raw material
This paper reconstructs the rules governing the selection of ceramic raw material and considers certain technological aspects of the production of ceramic vessels in some Danubian cultures around the Carpathians in the Neolithic. The analysis encompassed more than 500 samples of ceramics produced by various cultural units across different chronological horizons. The results of the analysis are used to verify several hypotheses concerning the rela…
Utilisation of cultivated and wild plants in the economy of the Linear Pottery Culture in the Upper Vistula basin
The current recognition of plant materials obtained from archaeological sites of the Linear Pottery Culture in the Upper Vistula basin made it possible to indicate the species that were cultivated and utilised by the Early Neolithic human communities. The data presented in this paper, referring to the occurrence of macroscopic plant remains of various types, was collected from 23 sites (97 identifi ed taxa). The analyses covered charred remains o…
