“…Aby skutecznie uderzyć stąd na Warszawę, armia niemiecka musiałaby zdobyć pierwszą linię okopów rosyjskich i sforsować rzekę Suchą. Wtedy jednak zadanie to wydało się dowództwu niemieckiemu trudne czy wręcz niemożliwe (patrz: Zalewska, Czarnecki, 2019).…”

“…Zapisy dotyczące specyfiki stabilizowania się linii frontu wzdłuż biegu Rawki i Bzury przez kilka miesięcy walk są w nich na ogół podane lakonicznie, zwłaszcza gdy odnoszą się do kwestii poległych i miejsc ich spoczynku, szczególnie w okresach tzw. stagnacji działań wojennych (zagadnienie to uszczegóławiamy w innym miejscu, patrz: Zalewska, Czarnecki, 2019).…”

In this article the outcomes of historical, archaeological, spatial and anthropological research concerning material remnants of the war cemeteries left by the Great War in Central Poland, in the area of Rawka and Bzura are presented. On the example of one of the four communes (Nowa Sucha) subjected to research under the project Archaeological Revival of Memory of the Great War (ARM), the processes of creation, transformation, decay, destruction and re-making present the resting places of the soldiers fallen between December 1914 and July 1915 are shown. In the first part, we sketch the output atmosphere that accompanied the primary context in which war cemeteries were established and place the war cemeteries in the network of social, formal and legal determinants. In the second part, we frame the historical and social contexts in which the resting places of the fallen soldiers of the German and Russian armies were massively created. Than, we show the difficulties associated with locating particular war cemeteries and signal strengths and obstacles in correlating results of archival research and use of remote sensing and archaeological methods in order to restore the memory of war cemeteries and establish their current and future condition as material warnings. Also we stress the looping of cultural and natural factors both in the process of protecting and destroying material condition of war cemeteries. Finally, on the example of one of the cemeteries we show how slow and arduous but at the same time promising can be the process of transformation from a forgotten/plowed cemetery into a place of/in memory, and as an agent struggling with the continuous nature-cultural transformations.

“…They are focused on survey of trenches and localisation of lost cemeteries or soldiers buried in the place of their death (Kołodziejczyk et al, 2016;Czarnowicz and Ochał-Czarnowicz 2019). The most modern conflict archaeology approach in area is made by Anna Izabella Zalewska and Dawid Kobiałka in lowlands of eastern Poland (Zalewska and Czarnecki 2019;Zalewska ed. 2021;Kobiałka 2022), by Uroš Košir and Matia Črešnar in the mountain environment of Slovenia (Mlekuž et al, 2016;Košir 2019), and in Romania by Roxana-Talida Roman (Roman 2020), who extends the scope of researched topics by not studying just a place of battle or basic survey, but the full aspect of components tied to topic of conflict from archeological point of view.…”

On the Slovak side of the Carpathian mountains, the archaeology of the First World War had long been completely outside the scope of research interest. At the same time, conflicts in this region had played a very important role in the initial phase of the war. Here, the Austro-Hungarian army blocked the invasion of the Russian army into Hungary with all its might. This lack of attention changed in the last decade with surveys conducted by our team from Masaryk University. In this short overview we describe and evaluate our main research conclusions so far based on surveys conducted at sites bearing the names of the hills of Staviská, Kobyla, Cingov and Wertyszów. Each of the sites is a place where various military events took place, so we have applied different, mostly non-destructive, methods to their study. Our results are mostly an introduction to the state of research and a review of a decade of expeditions to this unique field of conflict, where the armies learned how to fight in mountainous areas.

The reason for this article was the 90th birthday of Professor Stanisław Tabaczyński (born on April 1, 1930). However, at the last stage of editorial work, the sad news of his death reached us (November 28, 2020). All the more we would like to commemorate the Professor, recalling his achievements and merits, which place him among the most outstanding Polish archaeologists, including actual members of the Polish Academy of Sciences. He made a great contribution to the development of Polish and world archaeology in the area of theoretical and field archaeological research. Many of his scientific initiatives concerned the theory and anthropology of culture as well as the methodology of archaeological research and the syntheses of prehistory and the early Middle Ages. His achievements and influence on shaping the minds of archaeologists of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century cannot be overestimated.
