Opis:
Niniejszy artykuł (połączony z obszernym katalogiem) stanowi kontynuację wcześniejszych opracowań dotyczących monet i zapinek rzymskich, odkrytych podczas badań powierzchniowych przeprowadzonych z użyciem wykrywaczy metali na wschodnim oraz południowym brzegu jeziora Lednica. W wyniku prac prowadzonych w latach 2018-2022 na wymienionym obszarze odkryto trzy nowe skarby wczesnośredniowieczne oraz kilka tzw. monet luźnych. Do odsłonięcia znalezisk pojedynczych doszło w południowej i wschodniej części badanego obszaru, natomiast wszystkie znaleziska gromadne (skarby) odkryto w jego części centralnej, na osadach nieopodal przyczółka mostu „gnieźnieńskiego”. Najliczniejszy ze skarbów, o łącznej wadze 16,93 g, datowany na ok. 1015 rok, składał się z 39 fragmentarycznie bądź w całości zachowanych monet (islamskich, Rzeszy Niemieckiej, monety angielskiej, monety polskiej Bolesława Chrobrego i monet nieokreślonego pochodzenia) oraz z 2 niewielkich ułamków złomu srebrnego (sztabki i taśmy). Kolejne znalezisko gromadne stanowił niewielki skarb denarów krzyżowych, które uznano za wybite w mennicach polskich. Składał się on z 6 monet o łącznej wadze 4,06 g, które do ziemi złożono na przełomie XI/XII wieku. Trzecim odkrytym skarbem był zbiór monet polskich o łącznej wadze 2,21 g, złożony do ziemi ok. 1143 roku. W jego skład wchodziły moneta Bolesława III Krzywoustego (1107-1138) oraz denary Władysława Wygnańca: jeden z przedstawieniami księcia na tronie i walki z Lwem (datowany na lata 1138-1140) oraz trzy denary z wizerunkami księcia i biskupa (datowane na lata 1141-połowę 1143 roku). Do zbioru monet tzw. luźnych włączono trzy fragmenty o łącznej wadze 1,01 g. Pierwszą z nich był niewielki ułamek (ok. 1 /6 całości) dirhama Nas.r ibn Ah. mada (301-331 = 914-942/3) z dynastii Sāmānidów, wybity w nieokreślonej mennicy na przełomie 941/2 roku; drugą, niezwykle cenne znalezisko w postaci kolejnego fragmentu monety Bolesława Chrobrego. Ostatnią w zbiorze monet luźnych stanowił fragment nieokreślonego siekańca, który można datować na przełom X/XI wieku.
This article (coupled with a comprehensive catalogue) is a continuation of earlier studies of Roman coins and clasps discovered during surface surveys conducted with metal detectors on the eastern and southern shores of Lednica Lake. As a result of the work carried out in 2018-2022, three new early medieval hoards and several so-called ‘loose coins’ were discovered in the mentioned area. Single finds were uncovered in the southern and eastern parts of the study area, while all the cluster finds (hoards) were discovered in its central part, on the settlements near the Gniezno Bridge abutment. The most numerous of the hoards, with a total weight of 16.93 grams, dated around 1015, consisted of 39 fragmentary or fully preserved coins (Islamic, German Reich, English coin, Polish coin of Bolesław the Brave and coins of undetermined origin) and 2 small fractions of silver scrap (a bar and a tape). Another cluster find was a small hoard of Crusader denarii that were thought to have been minted at Polish mints. It consisted of 6 coins with a total weight of 4.06 g., which were deposited into the ground at the turn of the 11th / 12th century. The third hoard discovered was a collection of Polish coins weighing a total of 2.21 grams, deposited into the ground around 1143. It included a coin of Bolesław III the Wrymouth (1107-1138) and denarii of Władysław the Exile: one with depictions of the prince on the throne and fighting the Lion (dated 1138-1140) and three denarii with images of the prince and the bishop (dated 1141-mid 1143). Three fragments weighing a total of 1.01 grams were included in the collection of so-called loose coins. The first was a small fraction (about 1/6th of the total) of a dirham of Naṣr ibn Aḥmad (301-331 = 914-942/3) of the Sāmānid dynasty, minted at an unspecifi ed mint in 941/2; the second, an extremely valuable find in the form of another fragment of a coin of Bolesław the Brave. The last in the collection of loose coins was a fragment of an unspecifi ed fragmented coin, which can be dated to the late 10th/early 11th century.

Opis:
People devote almost all their life to ensure themselves and their family a proper standard of living. Their activities focus on acquiring food, organizing a safe living space and ensuring safety. However, if our activity was restricted only to the vital needs formulated in this way, it would not only be a far-reaching simplification but most of all a rejection of the greatest characteristics of a human being — their free will and their mind. These allow one to move to the spiritual realm, and search for social bonds without restricting oneself only to living functions. People need community integration not only through work, but also through entertainment, sensations and experiences, which result from various experiences in life from the moment of birth till death. In the 2nd half of the 10th century the land under the Piast reign was entering the Latin civilization circle. Western cultural trends started to permeate the local traditions. New settlements and cultural centres were developing and the existing ones were being remodeled. The residences of secular and church authorities came to be an indispensable and representative facility in new central places. One of the most important gord centres located in the centre of the Piast rulership is the area of Lednica lake. On the biggest island of the lake — Ostrów Lednicki — in the 1st half of 10th century a gord was established, around which a local settlement centred for several centuries. Just on Lednica gord a complex of residential-sacral buildings was created. For over 150 years research has been conducted on the island — both archaeological and the broadly understood interdisciplinary research connected with it. A gord, an open settlement on the island, settlements and burial grounds on the shores of the lake, as well as the waters of the lake were included in the study. One of the research places included the eastern shore of Lednica island, where at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s constructions and layerings connected with the abutment of the east bridge were uncovered (fi g. 1). This research, carried out by Mateusz Łastowiecki in excavation I/87, brought valuable information concerning the construction of the bridge, a point of contact between the bridge and the island, the character of the layerings, and a significant number of monuments, among which the objects made of organic raw material constituted a significant part. A tiny wooden object was one of them (inv. no. 103/91 – MPP/A/158). Unfortunately it was preserved fragmentarily (fi g. 2). It was made of foliaceous wood — beech (European beech Fagus sylvatica L) — and it has a clearly legible and neat form. It resembles a heart in shape (preserved roughly in half) with three holes — two wholly retained and one partially (fi g. 3). A straight broken back-end goes from the wider part of the “heart”. If we look at the object along its longer axis, it can be noticed that the holes do not align — vertically they mark three separate lines. The total length of the preserved piece is 11.6 cm, while the width in the widest place is 3.9 cm. The diameter of the holes, which were drilled slightly aslope with respect to the flat surface of an object, is around 0.6 cm. The “subcordate” part is 8.2 cm long and 0.8 cm thick. In the side plane of the object the “subcordate” part moves at a slight angle to the longitudinal one. There is a slight perpendicular protrusion, a convex — a kind of a threshold — at the point of contact of the two parts. Two transversal cuts around 0.8 cm away from one another are visible at this threshold. At the bottom ultimate longitudinal part, a clear perpendicular cut which creates a shallow (2 millimeter) step which goes to the edge of the fracture is visible (fi g. 5). At the upper part of the described piece, two small symmetrically placed indentations are distinguishable. The object was found in the excavation marked I/87, in quarter B, in the layer IIIa3. On the basis of the cultural material which appeared in the exposed layers and taking into consideration the dates of dendrochronological analysis, the chronology of the IIIa–d layers (in which the described object was found) can be dated to the 2nd–3rd quarter of the 11th century. The described piece of a distinctively formed object certainly comes from the damaged musical instrument. The broken piece is a peghead plate with a short neck. As already mentioned, it can come from a rebec — a stringed musical instrument. The origins of the rebec can be ambiguous. It is rooted in the Middle East, and it reached Europe through the Arabs. The name of the instrument derives from Arabic, in which it is known as rababu. It appears in a similar form from at least the 10th century, and the period between the 10th and 14th centuries is the time of its greatest splendour. Bowed string instruments — rebecs and vielles — were depicted in medieval iconography. On the basis of these sources, a classification of the instrument is possible. It shows that several kinds of these instruments were built in the Middle Ages (fi g. 6, 7). Pieces of diverse objects which are found during archaeological excavations, very often create a lot of problems during the identification of their original appearance and the reconstruction of the intended use of a particular piece. The above-mentioned team made an attempt to identify a piece of the find from Lednica. The initial examination, discussion over the details of the construction and the foregoing experience directed our search towards musical instruments — chordophones — i.e. wooden stringed instruments. The medieval iconography does not facilitate the identification. Information about the use of chordophones by the Slavs already comes from the end of the 6th century. According to the message of the Byzantine writer Theophylact Simocatta, in 591 soldiers from a personal unit of the emperor Maurice (Maurikios) captured three unarmed Slavs, who had come from the Baltic Sea (Sclaveni from the West Ocean). At the moment of their capture they were unarmed, but they were carrying musical instruments — kitharas. It is believed that this is the oldest written source which confirms that Slavs were familiar with musical practices, and the instruments described in it were κιθάραι (kitharas) and λύραι (lyres). It is thought that these names can refer to the plucked string instruments with a corpus-soundbox, to which the Proto-Slavic name gusles can refer. The oldest Cyril-Methodius’ Bible translation speaks in favour of equating the name κιθάραι with Slavic gusles. Interestingly, we can read twice about stringed instruments in Gallus Anonymus, who describes the reign of the first Piast rulers. So far, less than ten wooden chordophones from archaeological research in the area of the Piast reign, from the 10th–15thc., have been known. Lyres, vielles, a nyckelharpa and a gittern have been identified among those. Two wooden lyres come from the 10th–11th century cultural layerings of a gord in Opole. Another lyre, which comes from the 2nd half of the 13th century, was found during archaeological research in a fishing village in Gdańsk. A piece of a wooden outer board of an instrument — probably of a nyckelharpa — from Wolin, can be dated to the 3rd quarter of the 13th century. A gittern of a small size comes from the layerings of the 15th century Elbląg, whereas two other instruments classified as vielles were obtained in the course of archaeological research. One of them comes from 14th century Elbląg, the other one, dated to the 16th century, was found during excavation works in Płock. The greatest number of wooden instruments — from the areas which were in the closest vicinity to the Piast reign — was found on the territory of Ruthenia, especially in Veliky Novgorod. The shape of an object found at Ostrów Lednicki and its detailed examination supported by the material from excavation works permitted the suggestion that this is a part of a wooden stringed instrument. It could probably be a peghead headstock of a rebec’s neck, an instrument where the strings were rubbed with the bow. The reconstructed instrument from Lednica was built from two pieces of wood. The headstock plate, the neck and the corpus were made from one piece, and the soundbox, which was cut into the corpus, was covered with an outer board. During the reconstruction of the complete, probable original look of the instrument, several small but legible signals, visible on the described piece, were taken into consideration. The state of preservation fostered the moderately correct reconstruction of the upper part of the instrument. The fracture of the neck appeared just at the horizontal axis of an object, while the partially preserved upper part of a headstock allowed one to line out a line which gave it a full shape. A very small part of a neck survived, but it was long enough to adjust the proportions. Fortunately, the presence of a small transverse cut suggested the point of the fixing and glueing of the outer board. At the point of transition from a headstock into the neck there are traces which allow one to conclude where a fixing for hanging (?) an instrument was placed. Two holes and a fragment of a third one preserved in the subcordate part formed a basis for drawing conclusions about the number of strings and the arrangement of the string pegs. The traces of the cuts on a small transverse bump-fret (a nut) constituted a clue concerning the number of strings and their distance over the neck. The angle created by the headstock and the preserved piece of the neck, as well as the location of a fret, allowed one to roughly work the further part of an instrument out. A subtle but legible indentation at the neck, marked the fixing point of the outer board of a corpus. The reconstructed instrument was equipped with a flat bridge, and strings from sheep intestines were prepared. The rebec reached 46 cm in length, and at the widest point it was 10 cm wide. A bow (length of 67 cm) was made from willow switch, whereas the string from horsehair. What is the significance of the small piece of a wooden object — found during research at the Lednica bridge abutment — for the inhabitants of Lednica? Who was it for and what was its role? We will probably never find this out. However, as a result of the research and discussions we can state that this is a piece of a peghead of a wooden stringed instrument. It could be a part of a gusle (as generally understood, stringed instruments), maybe of a rebec, possibly of a gudok. The name of the find is certainly significant for musicologists, historians who focus on musical instruments, or music theorists; however, for those who conduct research at Ostrów Lednicki and study the gord which was established there, the identification of an instrument itself is the most relevant. It is important that we can say that at the time when the gord with sacred places was functioning at Ostrów Lednicki, there were musicians who were playing not only liturgical music but certainly secular music too.

Opis:
Połów ryb był jednym z powszechnych sposobów pozyskiwania pożywienia we wczesnym średniowieczu. Znaczenie tego pokarmu rosło wraz z upowszechnianiem się chrześcijaństwa i wymogiem przestrzegania postów. Stąd także w przypadku mieszkańców Ostrowa Lednickiego rybołówstwo musiało być powszechną i codzienną praktyką zdobywania pożywienia. Dzięki wieloletnim podwodnym badaniom archeologicznym prowadzonym w jeziorze pozyskano zbiór ponad 30 przedmiotów identyfikowanych jako narzędzia związane z rybołówstwem. Natomiast analiza szczątków kostnych znalezionych podczas badań lądowych dała możliwość rekonstrukcji składu gatunkowego ryb i preferencji kulinarnych mieszkańców Ostrowa Lednickiego we wczesnym średniowieczu. Pozwala to, w oparciu o dane z obydwu obszarów badań, rekonstruować ów ważny fragment życia wczesnośredniowiecznych mieszkańców okolic jeziora Lednica, jakim było rybołówstwo.
Fishery was one of the common ways of obtaining food in the early Middle Ages. The importance of this element grew along with the spread of Christianity and the requirement to observe fasts. This way of obtaining food must have been common for the inhabitants of Ostrów Lednicki as well. A collection of more than 30 objects identified as fishing equipment was obtained through years of underwater archaeological research. The analysis of skeletal remains found during land surveys has provided an opportunity to reconstruct the composition of fish species and culinary preferences of the inhabitants of Ostrów Lednicki in the early Middle Ages. By combining these two types of sources, it is possible to reconstruct that part of the life of early medieval people which was made up of fishery.

Opis:
This paper presents the results of an expert study of several glass vessels from an early medieval castle at Ostrów Lednicki. They come from the so-called second church, a single-nave small building erected in the 1060s and destroyed in 1038 or 1039. In its ruins, a collection of high-grade artefacts was discovered, furnishings of the same temple, as well as fragments of glass and fragmentary preserved glass vessels. The three specimens, examined in the laboratory, were made of potassium glass, of the calcium-potassium variety, of the CaO-K2O-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 type. Interpretation of the analytical results has led to a conclusion that all the vessels could come from a single workshop, attributed to Carolingian and Ottonian workshops in Imperial Germany. Another vessel, discovered in the eastern part of the stronghold and not associated with any of the sacred buildings, has an early date (6th to 9th century). It is believed to be a conical goblet of the Kempston type, made of sodium glass, of the mineral variety, of the Na2O-CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 type, from one of the many Western European workshops.

Opis:
Advanced noninvasive research carried out in “The cradle of the Piasts: archaeological underwater prospections in the area of Lednickie Lake” (“Kolebka Piastów archeologiczne prospekcje podwodne w rejonie Jeziora Lednickiego”) project, provided a new collection of artefacts and archaeological sites. In the first stage of the project an archive research was carried out and it showed that there are 61 archaeological sites of different character and chronology in the close proximity to the lake. In the further part of the project, non-invasive research with the use of a magnetometer, a multibeam sonar and a subbottom profiler were conducted. This stage of the project was possible due to cooperation between the team from the Maritime Institute in Gdańsk, which was conducting hydroacoustic research, and underwater archaeologists. In the course of the survey of bathymetric anomalies between Ledniczka island and the west coast of the lake, construction elements were identified. Therefore, the terrain between an island and the mainland was thoroughly searched in order to verify the object which was found. During the search of the bottom by the divers in the designated place, more horizontal structural elements were identified. Localizing vertically impaled wooden constructions identified as piles, was the key point. These elements confirm that in the described place, there was a third bridge on Lake Lednica. Samples for dendrochronological and radiocarbon dating were collected from the P1, P4, P5 piles and V object. Only the sample from object V was suitable for dendrochronological dating, as it did not contain a sapwood layer. As a result it was possible to determine the date when the tree was cut, i.e. after 1293, hence most probably at the turn of 13/14th centuries [Ważny 2017]. Sample wood from pile 1 was subject to radiocarbon dating and the 1085±30 BP date was obtained. After calibration it can be said that it is 68.2% probable that the analyzed material comes from 900–993 (900–922: 22.3%; 948–993: 45.9%). Whereas it is 95.4% probable that it comes from 894–1016 (894–932: 30.5%; 937–1016: 64.9%) [Goslar 2017]. In conclusion, it can be said that during the research, the relics of the bridge leading from the mainland to Ledniczka island located on the W–E axis were localized. The crossing is located at the narrowest place between an island and the mainland. This is around 100 meters and this is the probable length of the bridge. On the basis of the variety in the degree of wood conservation, as well as diverse shapes of the construction elements, and especially the obtained dates from the radiocarbon and dendrochronological datings, it can be assumed that there are two bridge crossings which date to the 10th century and the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. During the 2017 research season an interesting discovery was made. After several seasons of underwater works, a new object was localized and identified as bridge relics. It shows the great archaeological potential of Lednica Lake and how the use of new noninvasive methods can lead to spectacular discoveries. The bridge relics were only identified on the surface level, therefore it is difficult to draw far-reaching conclusions. However, dendrochronological dating makes it possible to determine the origins of the bridge to the 13th/14th century. Militaria found near the bridge are also from this period. The C14 date, which estimates the age of one of the piles for the 2nd half of the 10th century, is very interesting. It can indicate that there were two bridges with different chronology. However, in order to confirm this, further excavation works must be conducted.

Dwa egzemplarze wczesnośredniowiecznej broni odnalezione w reliktach mostu wiodącego na wyspę Ledniczkę na jeziorze Lednica zostały poddane nieinwazyjnym badaniom archeometalurgicznym. Przeprowadzone analizy pozwoliły na ustalenie metod fabrykacji oręża oraz określenie materiałów, które wykorzystano do jego wykonania. Oba przedmioty są wyrobami kompozytowymi odkutymi ze stopów żelaza o różnych właściwościach. Zarówno miecz, jak i czekan były bogato zdobione metalami żelaznymi i nieżelaznymi. Wykonane badania pozwoliły w większości na odtworzenie pierwotnego wyglądu tych ornamentów.
Two early medieval weapons discovered within the relics of the Ledniczka bridge on Lake Lednica were subjected to non-invasive archaeometallurgical investigations. The conducted analyses allowed to determine the methods of their manufacture, as well as the characteristics of materials that were used in their making. Each specimen was a composite product forged from iron alloys of varying properties. Both the sword and the hammer axe were richly decorated with ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The research allowed in most parts to recreate the original appearance of these ornaments.

Opis:
Construction works related to the implementation of the project of the modernisation and extension of archaeological reserves under the Museum of the First Piasts at Lednica were conducted at Ostrów Lednicki in 2010. They produced a small bronze item – a fragment of a triangular-shaped horse bit cheekpiece. Its two long edges (lower and upper) are gently arched upwards, and the shorter one was broken off. The lower edge is roller-shaped and oval in cross section. The preserved end at the contact point of the upper and lower edges is thickened, bilaterally, laterally, and diagonally bevelled (resembling a stylised snakehead). The other one, a broken off end of the lower edge, is slightly bent upwards on the inside. Thisis probably the forepart of the second part, a mirror ‘reflection’ of the preserved plate, with relief. Visible on one of its surfaces is a fragment of the relief: part of the body, a wing, tail and paw of a sitting dragon or basilisk. It has a curled wing adhering to the side and a long snakelike tail with a three-part end. One of them is spirally rolled up under the back of the torso. The dimensions of the fragmentally preserved object are as follows: length 5.31 cm, width 2.47 cm, thickness 0.35 cm, thickness with relief 0.55 cm. The bits discovered at Ostrów Lednicki and in the waters of Lake Lednica (along the bridges and in their vicinity) belong mostly to the two-part type I forms according to A. Nadolski. The find from the suburbium is a fragment of the type II bit according to A. Nadolski. They are believed to date from the tenth to thirteenth centuries, but in most cases they are considered to date back to the eleventh-twelfth centuries. The specimen from Ostrów Lednicki has a plate, cast along with an extended straight side, with a relief showing the dragon or basilisk. The item provides no clue as to when exactly and how it was brought to Ostrów Lednicki. However, this is another, after the ending of a whip handle, high-class horse tack-related object of eastern origin discovered at the site.

Opis:
One of important centres of the early Piast monarchy was stronghold on Ostrów Lednicki. In its vicinity was located the cemetery known as Dziekanowice, site 22. From excavations on this necropolis come five bronze bell-shaped pendants. Three of them were discovered in graves. Items of this kind occur in the north-western Slavs territory in the period from the 8th to the 13th century. In the course of previous discussion explanation of their origins and function failed.

archeological stratification and chronology
Opis:
The present paper discusses the results of excavations carried out within the framework of the so-called “Millennium research” (1961–1962) at Ostrów Lednicki. A survey of the abutment of the western (Poznań) bridge allowed to define the time of construction of the bridge as the beginning of the second half of the 10th c. This chronology was confirmed by the dendrochronological analysis of piles. These dates define the time of construction of the bridge as 963–964, while its repairs were carried out in 981, 995, 1007–1008, 1015–1018, 1022 and 1033. These dates imply that repairs of the bridge were carried out at even intervals, each 12–14 years. This may have resulted from the natural durability of the wood used for the construction of the bridge. A stone pavement was discovered around the abutment of the bridge. It hardened the entrance to the bridge. There were also c. 2.5 m wide roads near the lake, which went southwards from the bridge to the stronghold and northwards to the suburbium. The latest date of 1033 would suggest the last repair of the bridge. An assemblage of pottery from layers associated with the destruction (burning) of the bridge is dated to the mid-11th c. The latest of the received dates and the assemblage of pottery from burnt layers allow for dating of the destruction of the Poznań bridge to the mid-11Th c. The bridge was probably burnt in the course of fights over the island. This is implied by finds from the abutment: a sword and a spur, as well as by numerous militaria extracted from the lake by underwater archaeologists: a helmet, a chainmail, swords, stirrups, spurs, spearheads and axes. The lack of an evident burnt layer (apart from scorched beams) and a thick level of rubble may imply that the fire did not destroy the bridge completely and the structure did not collapse at once. The bridge, not repaired and not in use after the fire, underwent slow decomposition. From then, a depression of the terrain near the lake was not used for building purposes and the remains of the bridge and the road were covered by naturally growing layers of loam, sand and turf humus. From the mid-11th c. the island was connected to the land by a ferry crossing, built in the place of the eastern (Gniezno) bridge. In this location, the distance from the island to the mainland is half as much (c. 200 m) as on the western side.

Opis:
W trakcie badań prowadzonych na stanowiskach wczesnośredniowiecznych odkrywane są tzw. krążki ołowiane z otworami. Określenie funkcji tych przedmiotów sprawia wiele trudności. Jedni uznają je za odważniki, inni za ciężarki. Zaprezentowane w artykule mikroskopowe analizy traseologiczne 20 krążków ołowianych i 2 przęślików glinianych pochodzących ze zbiorów Muzeum Pierwszych Piastów na Lednicy pozwoliły zidentyfikować szereg śladów powstałych w trakcie ich użytkowania. Zestawiając te informacje z innymi cechami metrycznymi w analizowanym zbiorze krążków wydzielono cztery kategorie funkcyjne: przęśliki, ciężarki, paciorki i oprawki.
In the course of research conducted at early medieval sites, the so-called lead discs with holes were discovered. Determining the function of these objects poses many difficulties. Some recognize them as scales weights, others as weights. The microscopictraseological analyses of 20 lead discs and 2 clay spinners from the collection of the Museum of the First Piasts at Lednica, presented in this article, allowed us to identify a number of traces created during their use. Juxtaposing this information with other metric features in the analysed collection of discs, four functional categories were separated: spinners, weights, beads and holders.
