Archaeology in a town, a town in archaeology. Selected issues of archaeological research of historical towns
(Institute of Archaeology Rzeszów University, 2012) Rozwałka, Andrzej
In the introductory article of a volume that presents archaeological and other disciplinary research into a historical town, selected issues are discussed in the framework of the complicated research process required to understand the past of historical towns. This new field of science is facing many methodological and organizational problems. The main theme of this article is that the further development of archaeological explorations of the town requires the definition of terminology, holistic research methods (most of all stratigraphy) and an acceptance of an interdisciplinary canon. Historical archaeology dealing with towns has transformed itself into a specific field of archaeology that uses familiar excavation techniques, but differs from prehistoric archaeology by drawing on sources from other fields like history, town-planning, architecture, cultural anthropology and with its own descriptive language of past times.
The city as a “promise of ever new discoveries” in the context of re-socialized archaeology and through the prism of second degree archaeology
(Institute of Archaeology Rzeszów University, 2012) Zalewska, Anna
This article sketches the complex phenomenon of the city and the diverse understanding of archaeological practice within the city, both in cognitive and social terms. Three ways of approaching the city are examined – as material and semiotic cognitive phenomenon (perceived as historical and archaeological source of knowledge about the past), as the composition of past and present social interactions (that could allow archaeology to construct an inter-subjective understanding of the importance of material meaning), and as a subject conducive to establishing ethical foundations for contemporaneous social practice that produces discourses about past social processes and present social values. Ways to connect these three domains are explored – through a reconsideration of archaeological entities and archaeological practice via theoretical propositions of: re-socialized archaeology, second degree archaeology and ethics of social consequences. The author argues that urban archaeology has great potential to become the context for rethinking the nature of archaeological enquiry and the kind of history, narratives and representations based on it.

(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Kocańda, Paweł; Ocadryga-Tokarczyk, Ewelina; Tokarczyk, Tomasz
At the beginning of 2017, the Foundation for Archaeological Centre in Rzeszów began excavation research at 3 Maja Street in Rzeszów. It was the first such a large research work in the Old Town. Eight trenches were excavated, located at various street points. In the course of studies, the remains of the cemetery surrounding the parish church, relics of the wooden paving of 3 Maja Street with fragments of the neighbouring building walls and traces of the Early Medieval settlement were found.
Wyniki badań archeologicznych prowadzonych w 2018 roku w kruchcie Kościoła oo. Bernardynów w Rzeszowie
(Muzeum Okręgowe w Rzeszowie, 2019) Jabłkowski, Michał
Archaeological research conducted within the Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Rzeszów (Bernardine church) created a unique opportunity for interventional archaeological research, the first of this kind in the discused temple. In the course of studies, the remains of the church cemetery, which surrounded the former wooden church (existed on the site of today’s building) were recorded. Obtaining a collection of movable relics was a very important discovery, such as iron nails from coffins, pottery sherds and coins. Earthworks carried out in the church gave the opportunity to record the foundations of the porch, which was not mentioned in earlier literature. Thus, archaeological excavations in the church updated and expanded the information on the history of the monastery and the city of Rzeszów.
Wyniki badań i nadzorów archeologicznych przeprowadzonych na ulicy Kościuszki w Rzeszowie w 2018 roku
(Muzeum Okręgowe w Rzeszowie, 2021) Gorazd-Dziuban, Paulina; Jabłkowski, Michał; Kocańda, Paweł
The article focuses on the results of archaeological works and watching briefs that were conducted at Kościuszko Street in Rzeszów in 2018. In the course of research the remains of the wooden lining of the street were uncovered, which were associated with the street reconstruction and functioning until the Austrian times. Additionally, the thesis about a much shorter range of Kościuszko Street and the distinctiveness of the parish church as an additional point in the urban defence system was confirmed. The presented text deals with describing each of the excavation trench and summarizing the results of an archaeological watching brief.
