Neolithic Flint Axes Made from Cretaceous Flint of the Bug and Neman Interfluve in the Collection of the Museum of Podlasie in Bialystok
Archaeologia Polona, vol. 56: 2018, 141 – 165 PL ISSN 0066 - 5924 DOI: 10.23858/APa56.2018.010 Neolithic Flint Axes Made from Cretaceous flint of the Bug and Neman Interfluve in the Collection of the Museum of Podlasie in Bialystok Hubert Lepionkaa The aim of the article is to present and characterize the collection of flint axes made of Cre- taceous flint from the interfluve of the Bug River and Neman that morphologically resemble the forms from the Neolithic cultures of the Polish Lowland (the Funnel Beaker Culture, Globular Amphorae Culture and Corded Ware Cultures). This group of objects consists of 10 items found in the Podlasie region. The presented axes are a small part of a large collection (50 flint axes) exhibited in the Museum of Podlasie in Bialystok. A new term for local Cretaceous flint has been introduced for the purpose of this study. Until now, this type of flint was known as Northeastern Flint, and although research to define this term has been done, it has never been fully finalized. Because of that, the author of this study has coined a new and more suitable term: Cretaceous flint from the interfluve of the Bug River and Neman. This includes a group of Cretaceous flints from the Podlasie area and contains all the local variations of it: Mielnik flint, Rybniki flint, flint from the Cretaceous beds and marls and Krasne Siolo flint KEY-WORDS: flint axe, Podlasie region, northeastern flint, Cretaceous flint, stray finds, Neolithic, Funnel Beaker Culture, Globular Amphorae Culture, Corded Ware Culture INTRODUCTION The state of knowledge on flint axes across the whole area of the Odra and Vistula basin is rather variable. -

Croatian Waters Main Flood Protection Centre Head of Main Centre ∗ Climate change has intensified in recent years worldwide, including Croatia ∗ Extremely dry and wet periods have been alternating frequently in the last approximately 15 years ∗ Damage from extreme hydrological events is increasing ∗ “Average” or “normal” years are becoming increasingly rarer ∗ The frequency of high water waves and extreme water levels including floods is increasing ∗ There are almost no longer any rules concerning the occurrence of high water waves ∗ Forecasting climate models indicate increasingly frequent extreme climate events, both globally and locally ∗ Only in the last 15 years or so, the major part of the Croatian territory has experienced frequent extreme hydrological events which caused droughts in the years 2000, 2003, 2011 and 2012, but also floods in the years 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 ∗ Heavy damage is recorded, primarily in agriculture, but settlements, infrastructure and industrial facilities are also at risk ∗ Still, unlike in many other countries, major fatalities and disastrous damage in the urban areas have been avoided in Croatia ∗ Floods are natural phenomena which cannot be completely prevented. However, flood risks can be reduced to an acceptable level through constant development of flood -

A Ritual Feature with Bell Beaker Elements in a Late Neolithic Hunter- Gatherer Campsite in North-Eastern Poland 1 1 2 DARIUSZ MANASTERSKI ,KATARZYNA JANUSZEK ,ADAM WAWRUSIEWICZ 3 AND ALEKSANDRA KLECHA 1Institute of Archaeology, University of Warsaw, Poland = = = = 2Podlaskie Museum, Bial = ystok, Poland 3South-Eastern Europe Research Centre, University of Warsaw, Poland The ephemeral nature of religious practices and rituals makes them challenging to trace in the archaeo- logical record of Late Neolithic hunter-gatherer communities in central and eastern Europe. A ritual feature with Bell Beaker elements discovered in north-eastern Poland, a region occupied by hunter- gatherer groups of the Neman cultural circle, is thus exceptional. Its syncretic character indicates its role as a harbinger of wider cultural change that led to the emergence in this region of the western group of the Bronze Age Trzciniec cultural circle. Keywords: Late Neolithic, hunter-gatherers, ritual feature, Bell Beaker set, north-eastern Poland, Neman cultural circle, Trzciniec cultural circle INTRODUCTION material evidence of their presence is sparse and scattered, and burial rites leave Rapid progress in scientific methods has no or few tangible archaeological traces. -
Neolithic Farmers in Poland - a Study of Stable Isotopes in Human Bones and Teeth from Kichary Nowe in the South of Poland
Neolithic farmers in Poland - A study of stable isotopes in human bones and teeth from Kichary Nowe in the south of Poland Master thesis in archaeological science Archaeological Research Laboratory Stockholm University Supervisors: Kerstin Lidén and Gunilla Eriksson Author: Staffan Lundmark Cover photo: Mandible from the Kichary Nowe site, photo taken by the author Abstract: The diet of the Stone Age cultures is a strong indicator to the social group, thus farmers and hunters can be distinguished through their diet. There is well-preserved and well excavated Polish skeletal material available for such a study but the material has not previously been subject to stable isotopes analyses and therefore the questions of diets has not been answered. This study aims to contribute to the understanding of the cultures in the Kichary Nowe 2 area in the Lesser Poland district in southern Poland. Through analysis of the stable isotopes of Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulphur in the collagen of teeth and skeletal bones from the humans in the Kichary Nowe 2 grave-field and from bones from the fauna, coeval and from the same area, the study will establish whether there were any sharp changes of diets. The material from the grave-field comes from cultures with an established agricultural economy, where their cultural belonging has been anticipated from the burial context. The results from my study of stable isotopes from the bone material will be grouped by various parameters, culture, attribution to sex and age. The groups will then be compared to each other to investigate patterns within and between the groups. -

Impact of Climate Variability and Change on the Kupa River
Impact of Climate Variability and Change on the Kupa River Dušan Trninić, Tomislava Bošnjak Meteorological and Hydrological Service Zagreb, CROATIA Abstract The latest studies on climate variability and changes in South and East Europe, including Croatia, the continued air temperature increase trend is expected to be accompanied by further decrease in precipitation and, consequently, number of days with snow and snow cover, decrease in runoff, land humidity and availability of water resource. The results of studies on climate variability and changes (WMO, UNEP, 2008) indicate 23-36 % decrease in annual runoff in South and East Europe for time thresholds set at 2020, 2050 and 2070. The Kupa River annual runoff analysis for the locations near Hrvatsko and Kamanje (period: 1957-2008) shows a decreasing trend. An outcome of such, less than optimistic, forecast is a need for demanding water resources management. The observations and forecasts of climate variability and changes should be continued, focusing in particular on the near future. Also, it is necessary to continue with observation of meteorological and hydrological values for the region and take into consideration the anthropological impact on climate variability and changes. Keyword: climate variability and changes, runoff, Kupa River Introduction Significant meteorological, hydrological, morphological, sediment and other changes have recently been observed in the Kupa River catchment area. Some results of the annual precipitation amount and annual runoff analyses are presented in this paper. The increasing presence of scientifically verified climate variability and changes should be highlighted as well as intensified anthropological impact on hydrological regime. The increasing climate variability and changes, and presence of anthropological impacts, complicate the water-related problems at the entire Croatian territory, including the Kupa River catchment area. -
