The chape represents type distinctive for Western Europe and based on the analogies should be dated to the 12th-13th centuries. It was made of tin-zinc-lead bronze. The authors speculate that it may come here after military expedition Daniel Romanovych to Bohemia during the Hungarian-Czech conflict over the Babenberg legacy.

The special status of Kyiv as the capital of Rus’, the largest center of crafts and monumental construction should make it a reference monument for archaeometric studies. The natural conditions for the formation of the Kyiv Podil, where organic remains are preserved thanks to alluvial and deluvial layers, also make Kyiv a unique research ground for paleobotany, paleozoology, dendrochronology and climate stratigraphy. However, comparing the potential of Kyiv with the actual state of archaeometric research, we observe an unjustified disparity, mainly related to the state of funding of science in Ukraine and the weak laboratory and technical base of Ukrainian archaeology. Overcoming this problem in order to keep up with modern trends in the development of archaeology is possible only through international cooperation with scientific institutions that have the appropriate modern laboratory base.

"Tradycyjne" datowanie wskazuje na XI w., podczas gdy uzyskane daty 14C są o około 150 lat starsze. Stratygraficzny związek próbek i ceramiki nie budzi wątpliwości, należy zatem omawiane wyniki potraktować jako głos w dyskusji dotyczącej różnych rytmów przemian warsztatu garncarskiego na ziemiach Polski wschodniej, rozpatrywanych dotąd wyłącznie w odniesieniu do wielkopolskiego centrum państwa Piastów.

The site is mentioned in chroniclers’ entries referring to the stronghold Cherven’ (Tale of Bygone Years, first mention under the year 981) and the so-called Cherven’ Towns. Given the scarcity of written records regarding the history of today’s Eastern Poland, Ukraine, and Belarus in the 10th and 11th centuries, recent archaeological research, supported by geoenvironmental analyses and absolute dating, brought a significant qualitative change. In 2014 and 2015, the remains of the oldest rampart of the stronghold were uncovered for the first time. A series of radiocarbon datings allows us to refer the erection of the stronghold to the second half/late 10th century. The results of several years’ interdisciplinary research (2012-2020) introduce qualitatively new data to the issue of the Cherven’ Towns, which both change current considerations and confirm the extraordinary research potential in the archeology of the discussed region.

The find was primarily published by Borys Paszkiewicz. The article presents the state of the research currently undertaken in the stronghold in Gródek (medieval Volhyn) and refers to examples of similar coins discovered in present-day western Ukraine and the Carpathian Basin. The numismatic analysis is supplemented with the results of physicochemical studies: the coin from Gródek is compared with selected mid-Byzantine coins from the National Museum in Krakow.

Identified as the left wing of a diptych illustrating the Twelve Great Feasts and created at the close of the 12th century, the find is one of the most important and beautiful Byzantine artefacts to have been found in Poland. The icon was uncovered within the confines of the palace complex which was created by Daniel (Danylo) Romanovych († 1264) in Chełm in the second quarter of 13th century. The icon, even though it was found within the borders of what is now Poland, is material evidence of contact between Byzantium and the social elite of the Galicia-Volhynia lands, rather than with the Polish Piasts. In this paper we concentrated on the presentation of the archaeological context of the find, which made it possible to establish that the icon arrived Chełm before the middle of the 13th century (terminus ante quem 1253), and especially on petrographic...

According to historians in the early Middle Ages, Czerwien/Czermno was one of the largest and most important centre (capitol) of Cherven Towns region. The area of the entire complex is estimated between approximately 75 and 150 hectares; a part of this area is marshy and waterlogged. Almost 30 yares ago, the discovery was made to the north-west of the earthwork of relics of timber causeways (presumably they linked open settlements established on the holms rising within the marshy valley of the Huczwa). These causeways were dated by dendro-th th chonology to the period 12 -13 century. Started in 2013, the cooperation of archaeologist with Quaternary geologists in exploration of Czermno can not only give the answer about the stronghold location. The geoarchaeological analysis of the site can also explain the origin of loess dust sources accumulated in Pleistocene (W...
