Photographer’s Note

Biskupin is an archaelogical site and a life-size model of an Iron Age fortified settlement in Poland. It belongs to the Biskupin group of the Lusatian culture (ca. 1300 BC – 500 BC). The excavation and the reconstruction of the prehistoric settlement have played an important part in Polish historical consciousness. The ancient Slavs were known for building wooden fortified settlements. The site was called the "Polish Pompei" or "Polish Herculaneum".
