Abstract

The paper focuses on observations of Late Bronze Age salt production at Tyrawa Solna in southeastern Poland. The discoveries of the evaporation and combustion of brine by means of briquetage from the San area in the Eastern Beskids are put into relation with the current state of knowledge on contemporaneous salt production and the salt trade at this time beyond the ancient world. Furthermore, aspects of social and economic conditions in the first centuries of the last millennium BC relevant to the topic are considered.
