Sondierungsausgrabungen auf der Siedlung aus der Bronzezeit und der römischen Kaiserzeit in Markowa, Kr. Łańcut, Fst. 85

In August 2006, a site 85 in Markowa has been excavated. The cause to undertake the research at the site was recording traces of damaged feature from the late Bronze Age during control survey, in the spring of 2004. The research aimed to identify background settlement of the Tarnobrzeg group large cemetery, located on the adjacent site no. 5 in Lipnik, Przeworsk District. Within the survey trench (138 sq. m) 20 prehistoric features were discovered. Most of them were pits from different stages of the Tarnobrzeg group development. A circular groove of a diameter of 7-8 m and a width of up to about 20 cm is probably related with the same unit. Two objects, distinct from the Tarnobrzeg group ones due to larger size, are younger. Based on pottery found there, they can be attributed to phase B2 or C1 of the Roman period.
