About us

The Y chromosome is passed down from father to son, remaining largely unchanged from generation to generation, except for small, traceable changes in the DNA.

The paternal line R-V1334 formed around 400-500 CE. AD This line was part of the Przeworsk archaeological culture, which was spread over the territory of southern and central Poland from the 2nd century BC. e. until the 4th century AD.

The main peoples who inhabited these lands were the Lugii (Vandals), Silings and Burgundians, as well as small tribes of Harii, Helveconae, Manimi, Helisii and Nahanarvali.

At present, the monuments of the Przeworsk culture in Poland are well studied. More than 40 large burial grounds, a number of settlements, on the basis of which extensive developments of its chronology, socio-economic development, and ethnicity are being studied.

This is a culture of a settled agricultural population with stationary settlements of an unfortified type and large burial grounds. In the settlements, ground and semi-dugout dwellings of pillar and log construction were discovered. Nearby were ground-type outbuildings, pits-cellars. The funeral rite is characterized by two types of cremation: pit and urn. The burials of warriors were accompanied by weapons. On the territory of the Przeworsk culture, large centers of professional production of iron and pottery are known (the region of the Sventokrzyskie Mountains, Novaya Huta, Igolomya), which served large areas. Agriculture was at a fairly high level - the main branch of the economy of the Przeworsk population. Livestock occupied an important place in the economy of the population.


The settlements are located in the valleys of rivers and streams, on the first floodplain terraces and on the middle part of the slopes. The size of the early settlements is 0.2-0.4 ha, the later - 1.3-1.4 ha. In the settlements there were residential buildings, household structures and pits, open hearths. There was no order in the location of the dwellings - they were located at a distance of 10-20 m from each other, along the slope, without any system. Most of the economic structures are located near dwellings, which indirectly may indicate the presence of individual economic units.

Dwellings were recessed into the mainland and ground buildings. The former are predominant, rectangular, less often square, lowered into the ground by 0.3-0.6 m. Their area ranges from 14 to 20 m 2. In one of the corners, on the north side or in the center of the floor, there was a heating device in a small recess. This is an open hearth, lined with stones or smeared with clay, less often an adobe oven. Often the hearths were separated from the rest of the dwelling area by a partition. A mainland ledge was left along one of the long walls, which was covered with wood. At the corners and in the middle of the short walls there were pits from pillars supporting the wall and roof..

The walls had a pillar-frame or log construction. From the inside and, possibly, from the outside, the walls were coated with clay, pieces of which were found in significant quantities in the filling of dwellings. The basis of the roof was the pillars located in the middle of the walls. A crossbar (ridge run) was laid on these pillars, to which the upper part of the rafters was attached. The lower ends of the rafters rested on the logs of the long walls. The roof was gable and covered with straw or hay, possibly brushwood.

Household buildings do not have a stable form. Some of them are rectangular, others are close to round and square. The bottom is slightly deepened into the mainland. The area is from 8 to 15 m 2, sometimes up to 20 m 2. Inside there were one or more basement pits. Household pits are round and oval in shape with vertical walls and a flat bottom. Their diameter is 0.8-2 m, depth is 0.7-1.5 m. Often the bottom and walls of the pits are smeared with clay and burned. Outbuildings and cellars were used to store agricultural and livestock products, animal feed, etc.

The cemeteries of the Przeworsk culture are located on the hills. Most of the burials are flat graves. All burials were made according to the rite of cremation on the side. The calcined bones were thoroughly cleaned from the remnants of the fire and placed in an urn. Some urns were covered with umbon, stone tiles, and a fragment of ceramics.

An important element of the rite was the accompaniment of burials with ritual inventory. These are burnt fragments of ceramics, items of military equipment, household items, and items of attire. The entire inventory wears, as a rule, traces of being on fire. Weapons and other sharp-cutting objects are broken into two or three pieces or bent.

The paternal line R1a-V133 related to the Przeworsk culture is divided into three known lines (FT405779, V4159 and Y128472) and six as yet unnamed lines.

Lineage FT405779 was formed around 1100, during the reign of Władysław I Herman, Duke of Poland, and probably belongs to the Mazowshan tribe.

Line V4159 was formed around 1650 during the reign of Leopold I of the Holy Roman Emperor on the territory of the Czech Kingdom and belongs to the Czech people.

Line Y128472 was formed approximately in 720-880 and belongs to the Prague archaeological culture that developed at that time in the territory of southern Poland, the Czech and Slovakia during the entry of these territories into the Avar Khaganate.
