Dwór rycerski jako element struktury osadniczej w dawnym księstwie bytomskim. Studium interdyscyplinarne

Abstract

The subject of this study is the knightly court as an element of the settlement structure in the former Duchy of Bytom. This is undoubtedly a challenging subject, requiring a comprehensive approach based on the analysis and juxtaposition of numerous sources, primarily historical and archaeological. Contemporary humanities research often requires an interdisciplinary approach, open to the possibilities offered by other fields, including those in the field of technical sciences. Therefore, the work draws on both the current state of knowledge in the field of historical sciences and the achievements of modern technology, including specialized results obtained during the study of archaeological sites and monuments. The author intends the "multidisciplinarity" emphasized in the title to be a tool for developing a more plausible picture of the past.
