“…It motivated Lechic people to build forti ed strongholds. Scythian strongholds, like the stronghold in Chotyniec (today's Podkarpackie province), had embankments built in a different way -no room construction was found [28], which could have been a pro-Slavic invention. The Scythians probably had an advantage in the open eld, in direct clashes.…”

In many issues, a scientific discussion about the beginnings of Slavicism (Pol. Słowiańszczyzna) raises doubts and controversy. This essay is not a contribution about another excavation, but rather a statement at a higher level of generality - an attempt at a kind of synthesizing approach on the basis of logical deduction. The author stands on the side of supporters of the indigenous theory of the origin of the Slavs, which he argues by citing several logical justifications. The considerations concern a fairly wide range - from the Lusatian culture in the 8th century BC, when Scythian statehood dominated in its neighbourhood, to the 15th century and the great victory of the Kingdom of Poland in alliance with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania over the state of the Teutonic Order. The mainstream consideration, however, concerns the war tradition of the early Slavs and the first Piasts. The emphasis is also on the specificity of the martial art of Lechites and Poles, compared to the traditions of neighbouring peoples.

“…The second one is a similar type from the settlement in Białobrzegi (Czopek 1989). The first one has already been the subject of studies and preliminary analyses (Czopek et al 2017;Czopek 2019), so we will mention only the most important information. It is a large object, with a diameter of about 21 meters, and a preserved height reaching 40 cm.…”

Artefacts of eastern provenance, so-called Scythian ones, have been registered in Polish areas for a long time. In the western part of Polish lands, they were most often linked with Scythian invasions, and this explanation of finds was emphasized by destroyed settlements. In eastern Poland, the presence of similar artefacts, was interpreted rather in the context of contacts with the forest-steppe zone, and their almost neighbourly character was confirmed by characteristic decorations and parts of clothing. Discoveries related to the fortified settlement in Chotyniec (south-eastern Poland), together with accompanying settlements from the same time, allow for a slightly different view on the so-called Scythian finds recorded within the eastern groups of the Lusatian circle. The agglomeration should be treated as the farthest northwest enclave of the forest-steppe variant of the Scythian culture and as transmitter of certain cultural patterns. It is also a cultural phenomenon that plays a key role in the reception of the so-called eastern cultural elements.

“…For this reason, the chronology of its development, use and collapse remained undetermined, although many archaeologists tried to place it in the early Middle Ages or even later (e.g., Kunysz 1968, 46). The state of research changed in 2016-2018 when the first excavations of the site were carried out (Czopek et al 2017;2018, 54, 56, 199, 291-303). Despite the fact that the range of fieldwork did not cover a large area of the settlement (in 2016, four test pits were explored, including one through the embankment wall and the other three located in the northern part of the internal area, while in 2017-2018, an area of about 160 m 2 was explored), extremely interesting discoveries were made.…”

he paper presents the results of a typo-chronological analysis of arrowheads from the ash-hill found in the hillfort of the Scythian cultural circle in Chotyniec, site 1, Jarosław province. During the 2016-2018 excavation campaigns, 38 such specimens were discovered. All arrowheads from Chotyniec could be linked to the Northern Black Sea region, where they have good analogies. Thanks to a detailed chronological analysis of the arrowheads, using the data from quiver sets from Scythian graves, it was possible to establish that they could be dated between the end (or maybe even the second half) of the 7th century to the middle of the 6th century B.C. Referring to chronological schemes of the Scythian cultural circle, the described collection of artefacts would be linked to the final phases of archaic Scythia (stage ESC-3), which are synchronous with the second half of the HaD1 and the HaD2 phase in the periodization of cultures of Central Europe.
