Abstract

Located in the south-western part of Poland, the Forest Zgorzelecka included in the Lower Silesian Wilderness – one of the largest forest on the Central European Lowlands. Knowledge about its natural past and historical relevance is however insufficient. Such matters as chronology, settlement forms, methods and scale of natural resource exploitation and environmental changes resulting from anthropopressure possess great potential for further study. This article contains selected preliminary results of the changes in woodland ecosystems from late prehistory to modern times revealed by the in-depth, complementary natural and archaeological analysis of forest landscapes. Findings related to the settlement from the Roman Influence Period, operation of bog iron ore deposits and charcoal production for the needs of medieval and post-medieval metallurgy, research on the transformations caused by man of forest biotopes and phytocoenoses are described.
