Some premises seem to indicate for the possibility of connecting the relatively narrow specimens with well-defined bases as well as those with base similar to distal tip with a straight or concave inner edge (the latter ones show similarities to crescent-like forms) with the ‘Lausatian’ culture settlements. In direct vicinity of Świeciechów flint deposits, at a place called Kopiec, a workshop of bifacial forms was discovered, at which – in the context of the Lausatian culture pottery – around 70 crescent-like sickle shaped knives in various stages of completion and state of preservation were found. At least 20 ‘pottery’ sites of this culture are known from earlier and later verified surface surveys (Polish Archaeological Record). These sites are located within on the area of in direct vicinity of grey flint, i.e. Świeciechów and Gościeradów flint, outcrop}, type={Text}, title={Workshops in the Immediate Vicinity of a Mining Field of Flint Sickle Shaped Knives from the Foreland of the Outcrops of Świeciechów Flint}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/130397/PDF/WA308_103340_Workshops-in-the_I.pdf}, keywords={sickle-shaped knives, Świeciechów and Gościeradów flint, workshop, Lausatian culture, Kopiec}, }
