Lusatian Culture - Opis:
- Abstract: The human body and its theoretical possibilities of change or transformation have not yet been discussed in publications. Assuming that the source of information about a person can both be their remains and iconography, this article attempts to approach this issue based on two sources: a graphical representation of the object that could be used to transform the human body - i.e. a wand and the narrative scene representing the transformation. On the vessel from Smuszewo, Wągrowiec district, there is the figure of a man holding a wand in his right hand. He is surrounded by many small holes - it is highly probable that they are a graphical representation of the human transformation when touching the wand (Fig. 1B). For the Nadziejewo vessel, Środa Wielkopolska district, Greater Poland Voivodeship, another interpretation is proposed other than the published one (Mikłaszewska-Balcer 1973, Fig. 1). This interpretation assumes that the first person is the man responsible for the ritual of body change, and on right the ritual wand is depicted. Other figures visible on the left side of the picture show the transformation of the body - at the beginning the change is in the legs (from none to three), and at the end the evident transformation of the entire body. What is the most important is that the last of the three figures are connected by a line of holes which emphasis the most important stage of transformation, i.e. obtaining a new state (Fig. 1A). The scene was explained as a graphical presentation of the transition of the human body to the world of the sacrum. This is further evidence and support for including the Lusatian Culture into the orbit of a pan-European system of a mythological axial era. One of the characteristics of this sphere was a focus on the world of values, which were needed to protect against negative external factors, and was realised inter alia through magical acts.
