The settlement of the Baden culture at site 1 in Zofipole, Kraków district (results of excavations conducted in 1986)

Site 1 in Zofipole east of Krakow is known for long-standing research conducted in 1930s and 1940s. In 1986 test excavations were conducted in the eastern, up to then unrecognized part of the area. This research led to the discovery of a part of a small settlement of the Baden culture yielding interesting and diversified (while not numerous) sources for studies into this culture in Lesser Poland. This research is worth discussing due to new radiocarbon data, animal bones analyses, the discoveries of a dwelling feature and presumed symbolic burial and fragments of pottery for salt production
