Tree Beekeeping in the Context of Cultural Ecology and the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage – Reflections after the Research Reconnaissance

Summary/Abstract: The article presents an analysis of research reconnaissance carried out in October 2018 in the Augustowska Primeval Forest. The purpose of the reconnaissance was to “enter the field”, so to speak, and to collect source material during a few days’ stay, I had the opportunity to participate in beekeeping workshops. The result of this field trip is the source material, photographic and film documentation that have been acquired, a field research journal, and unstructured interviews. This article aims to present the initial analysis of the pilot research material and the methods of developing the collected material and results. It also contains reflections on the methodology of ethnographical field penetration and a discussion of research methods and techniques that worked well in the field and those that did not contribute to the expected results. The author also reviews the relationship between the methodology and the subject and issues of her ethnographical research.
