The paper will present the latest studies. Excavations were carried out at the site in 1979-1988, 2012 and 2014, revealing 81 shafts, which were investigated in varying degrees. Over 8000 flint specimens from the “Zele” mine were classified according to a classification list. During the initial analysis, new categories of artefacts were distinguished, which had hitherto not been differentiated in the flint material from settlements and mining fields. Microscopic use-wear analysis was carried on selected artefacts from the mining field.

An experimental-traseological method of the Russian scholar S. A. Semenov has been known in archaeology for about forty years. This microscopic method of tool function identification has soon become one of the most important methods of archaeological data analysis from the oldest phases of prehistory. The paper discusses reasons of a poor reception of traseology in Poland. This lack of reflection on tool function is linked to a dominant culture-historical paradigm in Stone Age archaeology

Jednak o kontaktach polsko-czeskich i czesko-polskich można mówić dopiero od okresu po drugiej wojnie światowej, kiedy na nowo powstałym Uniwersytecie Mikołaja Kopernika w 1946 roku utworzono Katedrę Prehistorii. W artykule przedstawiono historię polsko-czeskich relacji w kilku wyróżnionych etapach, związanych z istotnymi zmianami organizacyjnymi – od Zakładu Prehistorii (lata 1946–1951), poprzez Katedrę Archeologii Polski i Powszechnej (lata 1952–1976) po Instytut Archeologii i Etnografii (lata 1976–2003).

The investigated collection was completed on four non-use-worn specimens. The presence of areas enriched in iron (Fe) compounds has been noticed on the surfaces of all the specimens. They were analyzed by optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with an energy dispersive X-ray analysis system (EDS). Data sets were statistically evaluated using similarity analysis (DA, CA, MDS). The results indicated the variables that best discriminate the investigated flint artifacts collection in terms of either anthropoghenic or non-anthropoghenic nature of the residues preserved on their surfaces.
