Trzciniec culture

Trzciniec culture

The Trzciniec culture was an ancient tradition that subsisted in central Europe. Archeologists speculate its existence to have been between the years 1700 B.C. and 1200 B.C.

Remains of the Trzciniec culture have been found in many Polish regions, including Kujawy, Małopolska, Mazowsze, Podlasie, and in western Ukraine. The best known settlements of the Trzciniec culture were in Złota Pińczowskia, Więcławice świętokrzyskie, Goszyce, and west Bondyrz, close to the kurgans of Guciow. Some of theses sites include important treasures containing materials such as ornamental gold and silver like in Stawiszyce and Rawa Mazowiecka.

The Trzciniec culture developed from three corded ware related cultures: [http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kultura_mierzanowicka Mierzanowicka] , [http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kultura_strzy%C5%BCowska Strzyżowska] and [http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kultura_iwie%C5%84ska Iwieńska] . These were succeeded by the Lusatian culture, which developed around Łódź.

Inhumation and cremation in a flat grave were important features of Trzciniec culture. Cases of inhumation were discovered in Wolica Nowa, in the form of kurgans. Evidence of kurgan inhumation have been found at Łubna-Jakusy, whereas kurgan cremation has been found at Guciów.
