 abstract={Over a dozen macrolithic retouched blades or their fragments are known from archaeological sites at Kałdus and Stare Marzy, located in the Lower Vistula region in northern Poland. The context of deposition links these artefacts to the settlements of the younger Funnel Beaker culture, spanning a period of 3650/3500-3300/3100 BC. This article presents and discusses the results of morphological, technological and raw material examinations of the macrolithic retouched blades or their fragments from Kałdus and Stare Marzy and relates them to the lithic industry of the local TRB communities. The results show that the blades were made of high-quality lithic materials sourced from the Polish and Ukrainian Uplands and indicate that their technology is very specific and not rooted in the flintworking traditions of the region. Furthermore, the obtained results suggest that macrolithic retouched blades were charged by the TRB people with a specific function and significance that can be traced beyond the Polish Lowlands.},
