PhD students of archeology – Mateusz Sosnowski from the Institute of Archeology of the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń (UMK) and Jerzy Czerniec from the Institute of Archeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw made an extraordinary discovery in the Tuchola Forests. Thanks to the use of innovative methods of spatial analysis of the digital image of the earth’s surface, they were able to observe relics of the human settlement from about 2 thousand years preserved on the surface.

– Thanks to the use of innovative methods of digital terrain model analysis, we managed to register the complete spatial layout of the human settlement, where we are able to indicate cropland relics, the space in which the life of the estate took place – says Jerzy Czerniec.

The authors are still waiting for the results of analyzes and dating. If everything is confirmed, the discovered estate is probably the only completely preserved and visible prehistoric human settlement in Europe.
