- In 2017 the sewers and water mains in Biecz at the crossroads of 3 Maja and Kolejowa Street underwent modernisation and the work was subject to archaeological supervision. This led to the discovery of several burials, concentrations of human bones, and parts of buildings. Analysis of the findings plus examination of historical records points to these belonging to the graveyard of the now defunct St. James’ Church and a police station from the late 19th century. The results of the supervision were expanded upon by anthropological examination of the human remains and radiocarbon dating, both of which broadened the scope for interpreting the finds. The former helped identify the sex and age of the deceased as well as any pathological changes they may have undergone. Carbon dating confirmed that the burials took place in the 17–18th centuries. The above findings represent a major step in identifying where St. James’ Church in Biecz was located.
