archeology - Opis:
- Research conducted in the crypts in the church of The Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Szczuczyn brought many new elements into funeral history of the modern period. The unique conditions in the crypt contributed to the preservation of many remains of funerary clothing, the existence of which in the original equipment of the deceased was only guessed, because the linen and wool fabrics were usually decaying. The analysis of the materials from Szczuczyn allowed to broaden the knowledge of grave costumes sewn from these fabrics, as well as to verify their role – as a result of the conducted research, it was found that less durable materials were also present in exceptionally richly furnished graves. Objects analyzed during the excavations also allowed for a kind of confrontation and tracing the extent to which the secular community living in 18th-century Poland complied with the rules imposed by the church regarding the use of the recommended grave costumes. The analysis of the total number of burials of children in the crypts of the post-piarist church in Szczuczyn also allows for some conclusions regarding the identification of the sex of the children placed there. During the research conducted in the crypts under the presbytery, 96 burials were described in detail. This number also included children's burials, which were subjected to a detailed in situ analysis. As a result of these works, the burials of two children of Stanisław Antoni Szczuka, the founder of the church and the owner of Szczuczyn, were identified. Little August Michał was buried in a silk żupan, and Maria Anna in a silk grave dress sewn from grits. The remaining children were mostly buried in linen dresses decorated with silk belts, but among them, there were also some unique forms of grave costumes. Thus, in the crypts of Szczuczyn in Poland, an archaeological discovery of a linen Czechman was made, and a dress with a printed floral pattern can be considered an extremely unique burial.
