Problems of the Continuation of Medieval Manufacturing Traditions in Modern Shoemaking Based on Archaeological Finds in Szczecin
(The University of Rzeszów Publishing House, 2024-12) Kowalska, Anna B.
Research into modern leather footwear has only recently become a part of archaeology. In the case of Szczecin, a town on the Baltic coast in Western Pomerania, no comprehensive study on these types of finds has yet been compiled. This article discusses footwear dating to the period between the 16th and 19th centuries which has been uncovered during archaeological excavations in the Old Town in Szczecin, the issue of continuation of medieval shoemaking traditions as well as the issues of the methodology of studies and nomenclature used in Polish literature on the subject.

(the Authors, 2023-12-29) Kozłowski, Tomasz; Nowosad, Wiesław; Nalaskowski, Filip; Grupa, Dawid; Grupa, Małgorzata
This article presents a comprehensive analysis of a pair of shoes excavated during archaeological research in the chancel of the St. Nicholas Church in Gniew, found on the feet of a man over 60. It is the first pair of Renaissance “cow-mouth” type shoes excavated from a grave. The results of the study of both archaeological material (footwear, velvet headgear covered with embroidery using threads in a metal braid) and iconography – portrait depictions, group scenes, and archival sources – confirmed the high social status of the deceased.
Women’s shoes from the crypt of the church of the Name of the Holy Virgin Mary in Szczuczyn, Podlaskie Voivodship
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2019) Kulesz, Aleksandra
During the inventory-arranging works inside the western and eastern crypts under the presbytery conducted in the church of The Name of the Holy Virgin Mary in Szczuczyn, two examples of women’s eighteenth-century shoes were found. The first specimen represents a slip-on, leather shoe decorated with silk ribbons. The second one belongs to the class of footwear with a textile upper fastened with a buckle. Excellent conditions prevailing in the crypts ensured that the artefacts have been preserved in very good condition. This permitted detailed research on the raw materials used in constructing the footwear to be conducted. Textiles, leather and wood were subjected to microscopic analysis.
