The archaeological cultures found in the European Plains during the Late Glacial are all distributed over large territories and thus over possibly quite differing and varied resource areas. However, none of the major groups have as yet provided site assemblages to cover the entire yearly cycle. New datings and reanalysis of old material suggests, that we will never again be able to describe a particular group with a label like "reindeer hunter" or "elk hunter", and that for whatever new site encountered the seasonal limitations of the assemblage must be kept in mind.

In the early 1990s another Hamburgian settlement was discovered in the northern part of the Polish Plain - the most eastern and northern settlement known up to now. The paper discusses initial results of the international research program that was built up around this discovery: (1) stratigraphy and geomorphology of the site; (2) general characteristic of the lithic industry, and (3) faunal remains. The site at Mirkowice creates an exceptional situation for modern environmental studies of the Late Glacial, including reconstruction of plant and animal assemblages of that times and proper correlation of geological and geomorphological processes of the area with the human occupation. Altogether, the Mirkowice project has a research potential to be a benchmark for a modern chronostratigraphy of the Late Glacial in the Lowland.
