State‐of‐the‐art overview of the Loess Palaeolithic of Poland

Pawel Valde‐Nowak, Maria łAnczont

Journal of Quaternary Science > 36 > 8 > 1341 - 1352

In Poland, loess mainly occurs in the southern part of the country, in the Polish Uplands, and on the northern foreland of the Sudetes and the Carpathians. Most of these sediments come from the time of the last glaciation–the Vistulian (Weichselian) glaciation. Thin covers of loess from the penultimate glaciation have been preserved in Upper Silesia. Only a few sites from the Middle Palaeolithic remain...

Corded Ware culture at Zagórze in the Middle Beskid (Polish Western Carpathians)

Jakub Skłucki, Anna Kraszewska, Paweł Micyk, Paweł Valde-Nowak

Acta Archaeologica Carpathica > 2021 > LVI > 175-192

In 2012, series of archaeological rescue excavations were carried out at Zagórze, due to the construction of the Świnna Poręba retention reservoir on the Skawa river in Wadowice district (Lesser Poland voivodeship). During this research, in one of the excavated sites – no. 8 – a flint tool was discovered below the top of the slope in the diluvial cover, in the secondary position. The preliminary analysis...

Late Middle Paleolithic of Southern Poland: Radiocarbon dates from Ciemna and Obłazowa Caves

Bridget Alex, Paweł Valde-Nowak, Lior Regev, Elisabetta Boaretto

Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports > 2017 > 11 > Complete > 370-380

New radiocarbon dates are reported for Late Middle Paleolithic (MP) layers of Ciemna and Obłazowa Caves in Southern Poland. The sites present methodological challenges for radiocarbon dating related to post-depositional mixing, materials preservation, and radiocarbon measurements near the detection limit. We describe strategies to address these issues, which allowed for estimation of the timing of...

Missing elements in the cultural understanding of the hydrothermal landscape of the Carpathians in the Middle Paleolithic

Magda Cieśla, Paweł Valde-Nowak

Quaternary International > 2016 > 402 > C > 112-116

As soon as in 1950′, when the excavations at Middle Paleolithic sites in Slovakia such as Ganovce, Horka-Ondrej, Beharovce or Bešenova had begun, the correlation between archeological inventories connected with microlithic Taubachian and presence of travertine (sedimentary rock, formation of which in many cases is related to hydrothermal activity) was observed. Connection between two phenomena, cultural...

Sites from the Stone Age in Dunajec river upper catchment basin - new perspective

Paweł Valde-Nowak, Magda Cieśla, Anna Kraszewska, Katarzyna Kerneder-Gubała, more

Acta Archaeologica Carpathica > 2016 > LI > 293-306

Recently, the region of Podhale has yielded several new archaeological finds, gathered during the surface survey (difficult to carry on in that region due to the decreasing number of cultivated fields) in the area of Biały Dunajec and Czarny Dunajec rivers catchment basins. Artifacts can be linked with the period of Stone Age and Early Bronze Age. In some cases, their techno-typological profiles suggest...

Worked Conus shells as Pavlovian fingerprint: Obłazowa Cave, Southern Poland

Paweł Valde-Nowak

Quaternary International > 2015 > 359-360 > Complete > 153-156

New excavation undertaken in Obłazowa Cave, south Poland, yielded a fossil Conus shell, polished and incised artificially. The shell was found at the very bottom of the pit, beneath the point of the Aurignacian relics recovery. It has a stratigraphic and chronological meaning. The shell, as well as two others which had been found years before in layer VIII of the Obłazowa Cave, can be regarded as...

Middle Paleolithic sequences of the Ciemna Cave (Prądnik valley, Poland): The problem of synchronization

Paweł Valde-Nowak, Bridget Alex, Bolesław Ginter, Maciej T. Krajcarz, more

Quaternary International > 2014 > 326-327 > Complete > 125-145

Ciemna Cave is a key Micoquian site located in Ojców National Park, in the southern part of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland. The site is known for a distinct group of asymmetrical knives, prądniks, as well as the associated cultural assemblage, the “Prądnik industry” or “Micoquo-Prondnikiens”—both named after the Prądnik stream flowing through the valley. Excavation of Ciemna Cave carried out in the...

Micoquian assemblage and environmental conditions for the Neanderthals in Obłazowa Cave, Western Carpathians, Poland

Paweł Valde-Nowak, Adam Nadachowski

Quaternary International > 2014 > 326-327 > Complete > 146-156

New excavations undertaken in 2012 in Obłazowa Cave (south Poland) yielded a Micoquian inventory from previously sterile layer XVIII. This assemblage is chronologically placed between two Middle Palaeolithic horizons from layers XIX and XVII identified previously as Micro-Mousterian and known in Central Europe as Taubachian. Cultural changes are accompanied by environmental and climatic shifts. Layer...

COMPLEX OF THE ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES AT THE LITMANOVSKA HILL IN JARABINA (NORTHERN SLOVAKIA)

Mariola Biernat, Marian Sojak, Paweł Valde-Nowak

Slovenská archeológia (Slovak Archaeology) > 2013 > 61 > 1 > 1 – 20

In this article the new archaeological finds from Jarabina, a village situated about four kilometers to the northwest of Stará Ľubovňa, were discussed. It is very probable that the complex of sites located at the Litmanovská hill, which was discovered several years ago as a result of the field survey, gives next evidences of the Late Palaeolithic settlement in the region of Ľubovnianska Vrchovina...

The purpose of this paper is presentation of flint materials from the pit number 92 discovered at multicultural site 1 in Zagórzyce. During the exploration a group of five flint cores were revealed, whose layout indicates an intentional deposit. They were accompanied by few ceramic fragments and several animal bones. In spite of the fact the flint artifacts represented different stages of exploitation,...

Paweł Valde-Nowak, Anna Kraszewska, Damian Stefański

Recherches Archéologiques Nouvelle Serie > 2013-2014 > 5-6 > 69-85

The goal of this work is to review the present discussion and the perspectives of the Late Palaeolithic in the northern part of the Western Carpathians and in the Northern Subcarpathia region during the Allerød and the Younger Dryas oscillations. The area of Subcarpathia, especially dunes of the upper Vistula valley, has been explored many times since the second half of XX century (e.g. Kraków-Borek...

Micoquian in the Northern Carpathians. Examples from Poland, Slovakia and Ukraine

Magda Cieśla, Paweł Valde-Nowak

Recherches Archéologiques Nouvelle Serie > 2013-2014 > 5-6 > 35-49

The issue of Central and Eastern European Micoquian, although known for over half a century, appears to be controversial and insufficiently researched. One of the areas in Central Europe known for the presence of the Micoquian are the Carpathian Mountains. The article discusses finds from their north-western part. Micoquian sites in this region are known from Slovakia (Zamarovce and possibly Plaveč...

Ostrza typu Czchów. Krzemieniarski wyznacznik kultury Otomani

Paweł Valde-Nowak

Światowit > 2012 > Tom IX (L), fasc. B > 273-277

Declining flint industry - a concept formulated in Polish literature for the first time in 1987 - includes industries from the Bronze Age and later periods, separated from a clear standardisation of the Stone Age. Adopted by other researchers, it replaced the term “Early Bronze Age flint industry” when it turned out that the evidences were much later than the beginning of the Bronze Age. Significant...

Evidence of the impact of human activity on mountainous palaeoenvironment from the Kamiennik landslide peat bog

Włodzimierz Margielewski, Marek Krąpiec, Paweł Valde-Nowak, Valentina Zernitskaya

Catena > 2010 > 80 > 3 > 141-153

A unique artefact — the fragment of a bow made of yew wood, indicating the hunting activity of prehistoric man — was found within the sediments of the landslide peat bog (at the depth of 330cm) formed on the Mt. Kamiennik (Polish Flysch Carpathians). The datings of this artefact using ¹⁴ C method at ca 3790–3380cal BC indicate its connection with the activity of the Neolithic man, related...

This report evaluates the Middle Stone Age penetration in the area of Northern Slovakia from the point of view of past research as well as in the light of results of two test excavations on the southern slope of the Tatra Mountains. Information's about the Mesolithic settlements in Slovakia are random. They are related mainly to areas of southern edge of the Carpathians in the vicinity of upper Hornad...
