Abstract:

The article discusses the methods of studying prehistoric flint mines presented in the book Metody badań archeologicznych stanowisk produkcyjnych - górnictwo krzemienia (Methods used in the archaeological study of production sites – flint mining), published in Warsaw in 2000. The author of the article is generally critical of the work, though certain fragments are praised. He considers its greatest failings to be the marginal discussion of flint material from the mines, a lack of suggestions for rescue excavations of flint mines and the viewing of prehistoric mining solely from the perspective of modem industrial mining. In the conclusion the article mentions the need for a monograph covering the many years of research done at the Krzemionki Opatowskie flint mine site
