Białowieża Forest and its archaeological heritage
Białowieża Forest in eastern Poland preserves a landscape largely unaffected by recent human activity. A multidisciplinary study combining airborne and surface surveys, excavations and palaeoenvironmental analysis confirms episodic human activity in the area over the past 10 000 years, providing a methodological foundation for future research and heritage conservation
Comparison of palaeoecological and archaeological evidence of human activity from the Late Bronze Age to the Early Iron Age in Central Pomerania (northern Poland)
This article presents a synthesis of palaeoenvironmental and archaeological data from the Bronze/Iron Age transition (1200-500 BC) in Central Pomerania. Based on pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs (NPPs), charcoal, and geochemical analysis of the sediments from Wierzchowo Lake, five stages of local environmental transformation have been distinguished. Anthropogenic influence on vegetation was relatively limited from the Middle Bronze Age to the Peri…
Living on the edge(s). Settlement revival in the Sacharewo microregion (Białowieża Forest, E Poland) during the Iron Age and Roman Period (1 st c. BC/1 st c. AD – 5 th /6 th c. AD)
The article presents the results of research carried out at Sacharewo in the Białowieża Forest, involving excavations of a barrow cemetery associated with the Roman Period and the nearby settlement, which delivered finds from the Early Bronze Age, the Iron Age, the Roman Period and the Modern Period. Noteworthy was a significant amount of material from the Iron Age and the Roman Period, linked with the Hatched Pottery and Wielbark cultures, possi…
Barrow of the Wielbark culture at Leśnictwo Wilczy Jar Site 2 in the Białowieża Forest – new data on Roman Period settlement in the Upper Narew and Middle Bug interfluve
For many years, the Białowieża Forest has been one of the archaeologically least known areas of present-day Poland. Although the first excavations there were carried out as early as 1917-1918, until recently, knowledge of the prehistoric and Early Medieval settlement in the region has been negligible. Thanks to surface surveys and excavations undertaken at the beginning of the 21st century, it has so far been possible to record more than 600 arch…
An integrated archaeo-palaeoenvironmental approach to the study of human-environment relationships in the Wierzchowo Lake microregion (Northern Poland) during the Mid- to Late Holocene
The area surrounding Wierzchowo Lake, located in the central part of Pomerania (Northern Poland), is of particular interest from the point of view of the development of past settlements. Archaeological data have revealed human activity during various periods, ranging from the Palaeolithic through the Modern Period. This may suggest the relative and long-term attractiveness of this area. Among archaeological sites from this microregion, a monument…
State of the Art in Paleoenvironment Mapping for Modeling Applications in Archeology—Summary, Conclusions, and Future Directions from the PaleoMaps Workshop
In this report, we present the contributions, outcomes, ideas, discussions and conclusions obtained at the PaleoMaps Workshop 2019, that took place at the Institute of Geography of the University of Cologne on 23 and 24 September 2019. The twofold aim of the workshop was: (1) to provide an overview of approaches and methods that are presently used to incorporate paleoenvironmental information in human–environment interaction modeling applications…
Alleged burial mounds from the late Roman Period at leśnictwo Sacharewo site 3, Białowieża Primeval Forest
The article presents results of excavations carried out at an alleged barrow cemetery located in the western part of the Białowieża Primeval Forest, Poland. The site, discovered in 1996 and verified in 2016, consists of 10 mounds. In 2017, the first excavations were carried out when the mound no. 3, with a diameter of c. 9 m and a relative height of c. 0.7 m, located on the northern edge of the site, was chosen for research. In the mound 39 potsh…
A unique find of a silver cross-shaped earring from an early medieval settlement at Szemud, site 4, in Eastern Pomerania, Poland
This paper presents the results of an analysis of archaeological material recovered in 2014 during the rescue excavations at site 4 in the Szemud locality, in the Eastern Pomerania region of Poland. The investigations revealed a small fragment of an open settlement from the early medieval period with especially interesting materials. Besides a large amount of pottery dating the site to the eleventh century, a collection of metal artefacts was dis…
Hill-Forts from the Late Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age in Pomerania
Although hill-forts from the end of the Bronze Age and the beginning of the Iron Age associated with Lusatian culture appear in vast areas of modern Poland, they are absent in Pomerania beside the Lower Oder region. This scarcity is surprising, especially taking into account the relatively numerous appearances of hill-forts in Greater Poland, the region directly neighbouring Pomerania to the south. On the other hand, investigations conducted in t…
The prospect of digitization of Polish Archaeological Record on an example of materials from the turn of Bronze and Iron Age from the area of Pomeranian Voivodeship (Northern Poland)
Polish Archaeological Record (AZP) is a unique research program initiated by Polish archaeologists in the second half of 1970s. The aim of this project is to mark on unitary maps (AZP sheets) all archaeological sites that were recorded during surface surveys along with sites known from the archives. The main purpose of this paper is to focus on perspective of future digitalization of AZP and technical issues linked with the problem. Therefore, a …
