abstract
In the Middle Ages, the towns that are on Poland’s current territory, have developed in different culture zones. Archaeological research of material remains confirm the differences in spatial structure and urban culture. The towns of Pomerania, Silesia, Greater Poland, Lesser Poland and Mazovia differ from each other a lot. All of them, however, show signs of similarity to the towns of post-Carolingian zones. The problem, that is impeding the interpretation, is the fact, that the availability of archaeological data on a lot of polish towns is still insuffizient.
