“…The two categories of pottery mentioned above are clearly distinguishable: the kitchenware, which is coarse-grained, but with a striated rather than a coarse slipped surface, fired in an oxidising atmosphere; and the tableware, which is fine-grained, with a burnished surface, fired in a reducing atmosphere. The pottery of this culture has already been extensively discussed by various authors (Митрофанов 1978, 30-34;Васкс 1991, 67-76;Grigalavičienė 1995, 210-221;Медведев 1996, 37-46;Егорейченко 2006, 73-79;Vengalis 2009), but unlike in the cases of the other cultures, the main focus has been on the kitchenware. Fine-grained Fig.…”

“…13 sherds of early rusticated pottery were identified (Fig. 20: 2), which are typologically dated to the 3 rd -4 th century AD (Vengalis 2007). Nine of these were found in Zone F, in paired postholes 68 and 69.…”

“…Finds of crucibles indicate that non-ferrous metallurgy was practised in Skudeniai. Finds related to non-ferrous metallurgy are quite common in the unenclosed settlements of the LSWC -they have been found in Semeniškiai 2, Kernavė, Pilviškės, Staviškės, Bakšiai, and Bačkininkėliai (Vengalis 2010;Bliujienė 2012, 188-189). Interestingly, in the settlements of later periods, where only rusticated pottery is found, such finds are very rare.…”

In 2020, the construction of a pipeline led to a rescue archaeological excavation at the 130–240 cal AD Roman Iron Age settlement site near Skudeniai. The discovered material from its brief occupation has provided substantial new data on unenclosed settlements in the Late Striated Ware Culture. The distinct posthole accumulations in the surveyed area make it possible to identify building locations and to analyse the settlement’s structure by differentiating between the domestic and economic activity zones. The collection of pottery from Skudeniai’s brief existence provided a better understanding of the differences between the contemporary pottery groups. The first ever application of the petrographic method in the analysis of this culture’s ceramics also yielded important results that led to a new classification system that established distinctions between the three contemporary pottery groups. The archaeobotanical material from Skudeniai is of great importance for understanding the development of agriculture as it is only the second Late Striated Ware Culture archaeobotanical assemblege from a chronologically pure context. The article also analyses issues related to non-ferrous and ferrous metallurgy and trade connections. Keywords: Late Striated Ware Culture, unenclosed settlements, pottery, petrography, agriculture.

“…Žvelgiant į pastarojo dešimtmečio archeologinius tyrimus Lietuvoje, moderniųjų konfliktų archeologinius tyrimus galima skirti į dvi pagrindines kategorijas: 1) partizanų bunkerių ir žūties vietų tyrimai, pavyzdžiui: Lietuvos laisvės kovos sąjūdžio štabo bunkerio Daugėliškių miške (Petrauskas, 2010), Lietuvos partizanų bunkerio Balandiškio kaime ir Partizanų vadavietės bunkerio Mėnaičių kaime (Vėlius, 2010ª;2010b), Lietuvos partizanų ryšininkų Sajų sodybos Balandiškyje (Petrauskas, Vaitkevičius, 2012), Genio grupės štabo bunkerio Zervynų-Palkabalio miške (Žilinskaitė, Vėlius, 2012), Ignoto Nasutavičiaus Bondaro būrio bunkerio Pagrendos miške tyrimai (Ivanovaitė, Petrauskas, 2013), Karaliaus Mindaugo (Kalnų) partizanų srities štabo bunkerio ir partizanų kapavietės Miškiniškės kaime (Vėlius, 2014ª;2014b), Dainavos apygardos Kazimieraičio rinktinės Vytauto tėvūnijos štabo bunkerio (Vėlius, 2016), Užpelkių miško kautynių vietos (Petrauskas ir kt., 2017) bei kiti tyrimai; 2) masinių žudynių ir palaidojimų tyrimai, pavyzdžiui: Pročiūnų masinių žudynių vietos (Šapaitė, 2015), Panerių žudynių vietos ir kapų teritorijos geofizikiniai ir archeologiniai tyrimai (Vengalis, 2015;Kaplūnaitė ir kt., 2016), Antrojo pasaulinio karo vokiečių belaisvių kapinių Kaune (Antropikaitė, Čičiurkaitė, 2016), Pirmojo pasaulinio karo karių palaidojimų Bubiuose (Grigas, 2018) ir naujausi šioje kategorijoje -masinių kapaviečių Armalėnuose ir Zokniuose (Čičiurkaitė ir kt., 2020a; 2020b) tyrimai.

Exhumations of Polish Soldiers in Lithuania: History and Methods of Research

The article describes the search for the remains of Polish soldiers in Lithuania from 1992 to the present day, and presents how such research has evolved, and what archaeological research methodology is used. The involvement of specialists from different institutions and disciplines in such searches is discussed. Although the article deals with the search for the remains of all Polish soldiers who died in the course of the 20th century conflicts in general, it is notable that the most numerous part of them is made up of the soldiers of Armia Krajowa. The main data available for such searches is the testimonies of live witnesses, supplemented and refined by archaeological and anthropological research. The methodology of such research is still being shaped on a case-by-case basis, so it is important to review and familiarise oneself with researches that has been carried out and cases of (un)successes, as this may help to plan further, more productive research and searches for individuals from this period in the future.

The aim of this article is to present the most important results of the archaeological research of the Kukuliškiai settlement (Klaipėda district) in 2017–2020. During 3 seasons of the research, more than 3 hectares of the territory on the Littorina sea terrace were scanned by GPR, 101 geological drills were hammered, and an area of 45m2 was investigated. Fifteen AMS 14C dates were taken from different objects and stratigraphic layers of the settlement. Dating showed that settlement was contemporaneous and occupied around c. 800–400 cal BC. The complexity and scope of the research provides valuable insights into the lifestyle of Late Bronze Age coastal community. The discovery of wooden structures, organic artefacts and ecofacts indicates that the site provides excellent conditions for the survival of organics, of which there are only a dozen in Lithuania. The site and the collected research data, therefore, offer exceptional opportunities for the study of Bronze Age life not only in the coastal Lithuanian, but also in the southeastern Baltic region.
