The article describes the archaeological works carried out in February 2020 in the crypts of the church of the Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Szczuczyn (Podlaskie Voivodeship). Works in the crypts in Szczuczyn had been carried out since 2013, however in this case the main aim of the work was to collect botanical samples to analyse the vegetation that was used in the early modern funeral rite. An important element during the work was the proper selection of places from which botanical samples were to be taken, as well as marking the samples and their further segregation. To this end, it was decided to prepare a common sampling system for all the burials.

Funeral costumes are elements of funerary furnishings with very different characteristics. Their form was influenced not only by local funeral customs but also by the property status of the families of deceased people and the fashion trends prevailing in a given region. The study of funerary clothing clearly translates into the general development of knowledge about the evolution of fashion, and thus the issue is no longer only the domain of costumists, but also archeology. This is clearly visible on the example of the results of archaeological research conducted in the crypts of the Church of St. Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary - over 100 burials turned out to be hiding the largest archaeological collection of modern funerary clothing from the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Against the background of these costumes, the clothes in which the woman was placed in burial no. 8 (EA crypt) stands out. Her attire took an exceptionally impressive form, as evidenced by the fact that this tomb aroused the interest of the local population long before the archaeologists arrived in Szczuczyn. According to the stories of the locals, she was buried in a wedding dress. As a result of the verification carried out both on the stand and as a result of laboratory analyzes, it was diagnosed whether this theory can be confirmed with the use of scientific methods. The analyzes, apart from referring to the theory of stories told by local history enthusiasts, turned out to contribute a lot to the current state of knowledge on the development of 18th-century women's fashion.

Archaeological research in the crypts of the Church of the Holy Name of the Virgin Mary in Szczuczyn has been carried out since 2012. Many years of research have made it possible to identify some of the buried people, including the Piarists who served as the hosts of the church. One of the monks identified was Stanislaw Marszycki, who took the name Simeon of St Joseph after his monastic vows. Identification of the Piarist was possible thanks to the information on the coffin. On the deceased’s vestments rested a wooden crucifix, which can be interpreted as part of the deceased’s individual equipment.The crucifix was subjected to wood species identification using a microscope with transmitted light. This made it possible to determine that it was made from the wood of the common yew tree (Taxus baccata L.). Yew wood is a valuable material and was used to make both large boatbuilding components, furniture, and weapons, and was also readily used in 18th-century gardens. The yew was also a tree around which there was a great deal of superstition. Because of its toxicity and longevity, it was treated as both a tree of death and life. The cross from the monk’s coffin, according to superstition, might have guarded the deceased against evil, been an individual object with which the deceased was associated, or perhaps was chosen because yew wood was eminently polishable and with a beautiful colouration.

This article presents an outline of the activities of schools in the Lithuanian Department, which included schools in Grodno, Białystok, Merkinė, Lida, Vidzy, Vilnius, Vishnyeva, Pastavy, Shchuchyn and Vawkavysk. The leading role was played by the Grodno school, which became a department school, supervising all lower, subdepartment schools. All of the schools of the Lithuanian Department were supervised by the Lithuanian Main School in Vilnius. Working conditions at the schools were generally difficult as the buildings, mostly post-Jesuit, were considerably dilapidated due to neglect but also fires and floods, so they required provisional repairs or general refurbishments. Due to the need to provide an appropriate environment for learning, the rectors and prorectors demanded more funds from the Commission of National Education for renovation purposes. One of the primary tasks of the schools was to educate future citizens, enlightened, capable and responsible for the country. They sought to accomplish that objective by incorporating ideas of an explicitly national and patriotic nature in the syllabus. Great importance lay in the teaching of the Polish language, literature and speech. The formation of man and citizen was helped by history and geography as well as mathematical and natural sciences that demonstrated scientific achievements and drew attention to the functionality of science in everyday life.
