However their spatial structure and diachronic history is still poorly understood especially due to the poor preservation of the mine relief on the surface. The paper presents results of ALS data analyses conducted on the Dąbrówka-I site which is the first Prehistoric flint mine in the region that has been studied recently on the basis of the surface relief. LiDAR analyses combined with technological analyses of collected cores gave us grounds to identify two phases of flint mining at the site dated to Lengyel-Polgar cycle and Late Bronze Age-Early Iron Age. The obtained results show the extent to which a multiproxy non-destructive approach may give ground for in depth studies of flint mines.

[in:] From farmers to heroes?: archaeological studies in honor of Slawomir Kadrow, ed by. M. Dębiec, J. Górski, J. Müller, M. Nowak, A. Pelisiak, T. Saile, and P. Włodarczak, Dr. Rudolf Habelt 2022, vol. 376, Universitätsforschungen zur Prähistorischen Archäologie, pp. 121–131., 2022

(LBK) on the northern fringes of the Kampinos Forest in Mazovia, which in terms of physical geography means in the Warsaw Basin region.
Disregarding the archival sites of unknown locations, 14 LBK sites are currently known from the area, of which two have been excavated on
a small scale. Their collective presentation is an important voice in the discussion on the Neolithization of the Polish Lowlands and, more broadly,
on the nature of migration and settlement of the earliest Danubian communities in Central Europe. The sparse LBK remains long known from
the Warsaw Basin (and, more broadly, Mazovia) have been presented in the literature as accidental, isolated traces of short-term occupation,
stopovers on the journey from the loess uplands of Lesser Poland along the Vistula River to the ultimate destination of Kuyavia with its fertile
black earths. However, a review of the results of the research carried out to date suggests the LBK remains in the Warsaw Basin should instead be
interpreted as a small settlement microregion, comprised of about a dozen small but permanent settlements. Further research can be expected
to reveal the temporal extent of this occupation. This study is meant as the first step in that direction, and as a call for undertaking more such
research in the region.

One of the workshop centres were situated in the Kraków region (southern Poland) and others were located in the regions of Ivano-Frankivsk (Ukraine, former Austrian monarchy) and Kremenets (Ukraine, former Russian monarchy). The number of workshops, the quantity of products and their export gave them significance on a European scale. We used several methods to preliminary investigate the area near Kraków using LiDAR and field verification. We analysis three modern flint mines in this region – Zelków, Karniowice and Mników which have preserved anthropogenic relief and well-preserved flint workshops on the surface. Flints obtained during field verification (studies included a setsof cores and technological blanks) were analyzed. Our efforts allowed us to attempt to recreate the chaîne opératoire for Polish gunflint workshops as well to determine differences between particular sites.

This mining field forms a belt (30-50 m wide and 700 m long), starting from the valley edge of the Kamienna River southeastwards. Southeastern and western parts of the site have preserved the original post-exploitation relief. Geology of the Borownia mining field was examined and acquired radiograms revealed three distinct zones of anomaly concentrations. The central zone (B) is clearly a fragment of the prehistoric mining field, confirmed not only by the GPR sounding but also by archeological surveys. The other two zones have not yet been investigated in detail yet but their surface and archaeological examination may determine only whether their underground structures are natural or have been created by humans. Data obtained during the GPR prospection at the Borownia archaeological site confirmed usefulness of 100, ...

Amplitude mapping visualized debris at shaft margins as well as a collapsed material inside the voids. Some shallower horizontal tunnels were also visible as sub-horizontal planar reflections generated from both ceiling and floors of these void spaces. Extension of these interpretations to un-mapped areas of the ancient mining district and complexity of these prehistoric mining features could be examined to determine excavation intensity and exploitation techniques used during the Neolithic.
