Mining of lithic erratic raw material in the Polish Lowland in prehistory - a precedent or common practice?
Stone raw materials were actively procured by the inhabitants of the Polish Lowland in prehistory by way of intense exploitation of the local resources of Fennoscandian erratic boulders and pebbles and – on a very small scale – by gaining “imports” from the areas rich in stone resources. A particula...

Stone raw materials were actively procured by the inhabitants of the Polish Lowland in prehistory by way of intense exploitation of the local resources of Fennoscandian erratic boulders and pebbles and – on a very small scale – by gaining “imports” from the areas rich in stone resources.
