Tom dedykowany profesorowi Andrzejowi Kempistemu, nestorowi polskiej archeologii pradziejowej. W pierwszej części, poza wspomnieniem o działalności profesora w Nemrik (Irak), znajdują się różne artykuły dotyczące pradziejów w Polsce i na Białorusi. Dalsza część zawiera teksty związane z szeroko rozumianą archeologią śródziemnomorską i bliskowschodnią, w których poruszane są również zagadnienia recepcji antyku w kulturze polskiej i europejskiej. Tom ukazuje się w czasie znaczonym 100-leciem istnienia archeologii na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim, co znalazło wyraz w esejach profesora Stefana Karola Kozłowskiego, innej ważnej postaci polskiej archeologii. ****** This volume is dedicated to Professor Andrzej Kempisty, the doyen of Polish prehistoric archaeology. Apart from a reminiscence about the professor's activities in Nemrik (Iraq), the first part contains various articles concerning prehistory in Poland and Belarus. The next part includes texts related to the broadly understood Mediterranean and Near Eastern archaeology, which also deal with the reception of antiquity in Polish and European culture. The volume is published at a time marked by the 100th anniversary of archaeology at the University of Warsaw, as reflected in the essays of Professor Stefan Karol Kozłowski, another important figure in Polish archaeology.
