Archaeological Finds from the Main Town in Gdansk: A Catalogue from Excavations at Dlugi Targ and Powroznicza Street

Description

Between 2002 and 2004, archaeological excavations took place on Powroznicza Street, in the city of Gdansk, Poland. Twelve burghers' plots, located in the centre of this former medieval metropolis, were investigated, and yielded a rich collection of archaeological finds, among them ceramics, and items of wood, metal, and glass, from a period stretching from the fourteenth to the twentieth century. These finds are presented here for this first time in this richly illustrated bilingual volume, published in both English and Polish, which lays out a detailed catalogue of all the items, together with a discussion of the site, its settlement phases, and its most significant discoveries.
