    Gustaw Gizewiusz (1810–1848). Pastor z wschodniopruskiego Osterode (Ostróda), obrońca polskości, badacz folkloru i pradziejów w czasach romantyzmu

    Gustaw Gizewiusz urodzony w 1810 roku w Piszu, zmarł w 1848 roku w Ostródzie w wieku 38 lat. Ten młody, ale zdolny pastor ostródzkiego Kościoła Polskiego należał do jednych z najbardziej znanych orędowników praw Polaków i Mazurów do utrzymywania własnej mowy. Zajmował się działalnością polityczną, z której znany był jako autor kilku rozpraw i listów otwartych. Najbardziej popularna w kręgach pruskich postępowców była książeczkajego autorstwa: Die polnische Sprachfrage in Preußen („Polska kwestia językowa w Prusiech”). Gizewiusz dziś bardziej znany jest jako zbieracz pieśni. Jego najważniejsze dzieło to spisane po polsku Pieśni ludu znad Górnej Drwęcy w parafiach ostródzkiej i kraplewskiej zbierane od 1836 do 1840 roku. Zamieścił on w nim 441 różnych pieśni, które podyktowali mu mieszkający wokół Ostródy Mazurzy. Dzieło to nie zostało za jego życia opublikowane. W 1846 roku w Lipsku natomiast opublikował zbiór pod polskim tytułem: Śpiewnik szkolny i domowy dla wesołej i niewinnej młodzieży naszej. Gizewiusz zajmował się także kolekcjonowaniem zabytków archeologicznych. Część przekazał do Warszawy, które później stały się częścią zbiorów Państwowego Muzeum Archeologicznego. W niniejszym artykule omówiono kilka z nich, w tym dokładnie zidentyfikowano dwie szpile z okresu Halsztadzkiego (Halstadtzeit), naczynko z okresu wpływów rzymskich (Römische Kaiserzeit) i skarb bransolet z epoki brązu znalezione (Bronzezeit) pod Ostród

    Distribution of Pb and Zn in slices of human bone by synchrotron μ\mu-XRF

    Synchrotron radiation-induced micro x-ray fluorescence analysis (m-XRF) at HASYLAB beamline L was used to determine the distribution of Pb and other trace elements in slices of human bone. Using a focused synchrotron x-ray beam of about 15 μm in diameter it was found that Pb was mostly located at the outer border of the cortical bone in various samples. Ratios of Pb intensities of cortical and trabecular bone varied from 0.027 for hip head to 0.408 for proximal tibia. Additionally Ca, Zn and Sr distributions were simultaneously recorded. A remarkable association between Pb and Zn content could be observed

    Naprom, Ostróda county (Gross Nappern, Kr. Osterode). The Cemetery from the Early Medieval Period in the Light of Archival Data

    No full text
    The cemetery discovered in the village of Naprom, Ostróda County (former Gross Nappern, Kr. Osterode) is not known in the archaeological literature. Contemporary knowledge of the necropolis comes from the article: Prussians in the early Middle Ages and the outline of their material culture. The content can be inferred that the discovered site was a vast necropolis, within which a large number of sepulchral objects were uncovered. Some information about the discovery can be found in the articles by C. Engel published in the daily press in the 1930s. (Königsberger Stadtspiegel, Johannisburger Zeitung). During the archival inquiry carried out in the Archäologisches Landesmuseum Schloss Gottdorf in Schleswig (the so-called Rudolf Grenz’s files) and the Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte in Berlin (the archives of the former Prussia-Museum) interesting unpublished materials concerning the burial ground in Gross Nappern were found. During his journey in Ostróda and Lidzbark county in 1931 Carl Engel carried out a trial excavation. In the trench two cremation graves covered with stone constructions were discovered. The potsherds were the only artifacts found in the graves (on the basis of the description these can be dated back to the 11th – 1st half of 13th c.). The owner of the grounds, where the graves were discovered reported that in the vicinity of the excavated graves there used to be a barrow (it was destroyed around 1905, and the stones from the mound were used during the construction of the barn). That was the reason why C. Engel came back to the village of Naprom to excavate the destroyed barrow

    Lead accumulation in tidemark of articular cartilage

    Determination of the spatial distribution of the toxic element lead (Pb) and other trace elements in normal articular cartilage and subchondral bone from adult humans with no history of work-related exposure to Pb.Four macroscopically normal femoral heads and three patellas were harvested from randomly selected forensic autopsies. All subjects died of acute illnesses, had no history of work-related exposure to Pb and had no metabolic bone disease. The elemental distribution of lead (Pb) together with zinc (Zn), strontium (Sr) and calcium (Ca) in the chondral and subchondral region was detected using high resolution synchrotron radiation induced micro X-ray fluorescence (SR mu-XRF) analysis. SR mu-XRF line scans in conventional and SR mu-XRF area scans in confocal geometry were correlated to backscattered electron (BE) images visualizing the mineralized tissue.In all samples, we found a highly specific accumulation of Pb in the tidemark, the transition zone between calcified and non-calcified articular cartilage. Pb fluorescence intensities in the tidemark, which is thought to be a metabolically active mineralization front, were 13-fold higher when compared to subchondral bone. Pb intensities in the subchondral region were strongly correlated with Zn, but were distinctly different from Ca and Sr.The finding of the highly specific accumulation of lead in the tidemark of human articular cartilage is novel. However at this point, the exact mechanisms of the local Pb accumulation as well as its clinical implications are unknown

    Traktat francusko-perski jako przykład działań dyplomatycznych Napoleona w okresie pobytu w Kamieńcu Suskim

    The stay of emperor Napoleon in Finckenstein (Kamieniec Suski, district Iława) from 1st April till 6th June 1807 was rich in many important undertakings. Napoleon, involved in the war operations against the forces of 4th coalition, undertook the diplomatic steps, the result of which could be the lightening of the military effort of the Great Army. Undersigning the treaty was preceded by long time of sending the envoys with the letters. In winter 1804 Shah of Persia asked the French government for the support in his fight against Russia. As early as in March 1805 Napoleon sent to Teheran two trustworthy envoys. Next letters he sent by the couriers from Warsaw, Ostróda (Osterode) and Kamieniec Suski (Finckenstein). The authors carry out the analysis of the allied French – Persian treaty signed in the palace of Finckenstein on 4th May 1807. The treaty corresponded to the reciprocal interests of the negotiating parts. The Persian Shah Fath Ali was specially interested in modernization of the army and in gaining over an ally to the war against Russia, which started in 1804. Napoleon in these needs saw the chance of creating the diversion front against the armies of tsar Alexander I and of widening the continental blockade of England outside Europe. Besides the analysis of the treaty, the authors described the visit of the “exotic” legation in the palace of Finckenstein. Thanks to Napoleon art of propaganda and the tradition cultivated by the owners of the palace – the counts zu Dohna, this episode was kept in the local memory till 1945

    The treasure of coins from Tułodziad in the light of the archive sources of the former Prusia-Museum. The forgotten witness of the battle of Grunwald?

    In the summer of 1930 in the village of Tułodziad (German: Taulensee) some treasure consisting of silver coins was discovered in the peatland. As it seems, this included 145 coins, eighty of which were in sufficiently good condition to be recognised. Some of the coins – thirty- were part of the Gymnasial Sammlung Osterode, whilst fifty of them were donated to the Prussia-Museum by August Symkowitz from Tułodziad. As many as thirtythree coins were minted during the times of Ulrich von Jungingen (1407–1410) – 41% of the whole treasure; 29 during the times of Konrad von Jungingen (1393–1407) – 36% of the total number of coins; 19 during the times of Winrich von Kniprode (1351–1382) – 23%. The content of the treasure allows us to assume that the treasure had been hidden in mid-July 1410 during the combat related to the battle of Grunwald
