The present author published a short report on the 1971 work in 1973. Some results of the research work, at the site have also been presented, briefly too, in a few more general publications. This site is also included in the recently published catalogue of European flint mines (Chmielewska 1980, 583 ff.). The excavations uncovered one pit as a whole and a few others partly. From analysis of flint artifacts from on-site workshops and the 1 4C date of a sample of charcoal from one of the pits, we can assume that the population of the younger stage of the Mierzanowice culture (1600-1500 BC) extracted chocolate flint at this part of the mine. These analyses certainly also permitted some conclusions to be drawn aboutthe extraction techniques, yield size, production directions in on-site workshops, distribution of raw flint and economic and property relationships at the mine}, type={Text}, title={The early Bronze age flint mine at site ii, Polany, Radom district}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/61113/PDF/WA308_80259_PIII272_The-early-Bronze-age_I.pdf}, keywords={Bronze Age -- Poland, Mierzanowice culture, flint mines, chocolate flint, Polany, Wierzbica commune (Poland)}, }
