Uwagi o rzeźbie greckiej i nowych kierunkach jej badań
In the paper concerning the new approaches in the study of Greek sculptural production at first the author considers the problem of putting the ancient artefacts with the modern works of art on the same level and the need for the new conceptualisation of them. In the next step she outlines historiography of the Greek sculpture with the particular reference to the study on its stylistic development. Further on the author presents selected, new approaches in the study on Greek sculpture, the ones which are breaking the long tradition of research on them, rooted in the Enlightenment and Hegelian thought and historicism. She focusses on the results of these research which shift the interpretative emphasis from the relation between the image/sculpture and its model to that of the image and its viewer
Archeologia poza archaīos. Przykład obozu jeńców wojennych i internowanych w Tucholi (woj. kujawsko- -pomorskie)
This paper is a case study of a prisoner of war and internment camp in Tuchola (Kujawsko-Pomorskie Province, Poland). The camp operated between 1914 and 1923. During the First World War it was run by Germans and later, during the Polish-Soviet War, by the Poles. The site provides a context for discussing two issues around archaeological research of the recent past. The first issue is how archaeology can be used to analyse the transformations of landscapes related to modern armed conflicts. The second point deals with the documentation and analysis of the remains of the camp using ALS derivatives. The main conclusion of this paper is that LiDAR technology can be also a useful tool in the context of approaching landscapes from the recent past
Późnośredniowieczna i nowożytna ceramika kamionkowa z posesji przy ul. ks. Posadzego 5 w Poznaniu – z badań przeprowadzonych w latach 2010–2011
This paper examines stoneware recovered during 2010–2011 excavations at ul. Ks. Posadzego 5, Poznań. The assemblage consists of 128 potsherds. Recognised and analysed were fragments of economic containers, sherds of mineral water bottles, plates produced in central-west England, vessels from Trzebiel, Bolesławiec and Waldenburg as well as Lusatian stoneware
Skarb z epoki brązu z Bolesławca, pow. wieruszowski
The paper presents a hoard of bronze objects from Bolesławiec, Wieruszów District, deposited within the Upper Silesian-Małopolska zone of the Lusatian urnfields. The hoard comprises ornaments and devices used to fasten clothing that are indicative of both an interregional context and local production centres. The hoard dates to Phase IV/Phase V of the Bronze Age, or perhaps a somewhat later period, and fits with the picture of complex and intense cultural processes taking place in the Upper Silesian-Małopolska zone at the time
Popielnica – ubranie zmarłego? Stratyfikacja społeczna ludności Wielkopolski w świetle istnienia dwóch odmian urn w okresie wpływów rzymskich
The purpose of this article is to explain why the communities of the Przeworsk and Wielbark cultures occupying Wielkopolska in the broadly-defined Roman period used two different types of cremation urns for burying their dead. The paper provides a description of both types of urns. Type I comprises thin walled, carefully made and burnished vase shaped vessels and situlas. Type II groups carefully made vessels with rough or roughened outside surface: pots, vase-shaped vessels and even cups. This paper provides an overview of previous ideas and interpretations of the phenomenon and examines the construction, grave goods and location of selected graves from two cemeteries of the Przeworsk and Wielbark cultures in Wielkopolska: Kuny and Kowalewko. A hypothesis explaining the presence of two urn types at that time in Wielkopolska is then proposed along with some research postulates and questions that will enable and guide further discussion on this intriguing issue

Importowane naczynie brązowe ze stemplem Publiusza Cipiusza Polibiusza na cmentarzysku kurhanowym z okresu wpływów rzymskich w Grudnej, pow. złotowski, stan. 2
During excavations at the Roman Iron Age barrow cemetery in Grudna there has been an imported skillet discovered with a stamp of Publius Cipius Polybius, a bronzesmith of Capua. It is one of several such vessels found in northern Barbaricum. The largest concentration of skillets has been observed on Danish islands, which at the time were a transit points on a northern trade route across the sea. The presence of the skillet in the area proves widespread, interregional contacts of people inhabiting the middle Gwda River basin in phase B2 of the Roman Iron Age
Problem genezy zorganizowanej przemocy w świetle źródeł archeologicznych
The problem of origins of violence in prehistory still raises many controversies among scholars representing nearly all branches of social sciences. The large number of existing interpretations only complicates the current state of research. This paper’s aim is to present and briefly discuss two main theoretical approaches to the problem, along with an attempt to evaluate them using archaeological record representing the earliest material evidence for small-scale organized warfare
