The paper presents data concerning Sallunto-Bersumno-Scodra Roman roads (Riječani-Podgorica-Skadar) and intermediate communities in the southeastern parts of the province of Dalmatia. While researching ancient roads in the southeastern part of the province of Dalmatia (Montenegro), we relied on recorded oral sources, epigraph statues, milestones, bridge and road remains in the area. We discussed also contemporary historiographers' various opinions about the location of stations. Using the data obtained after visiting the area itself and the data from Peutingeriane and the Antonine Itinerary, we believe that the road led to the east from the Sallunto station (Riječani) to Anderba (Nikšić) and then to the Varis station (Povija), Halata (Spuž), Bersumno (Podgorica), across the Cinna station (Vuksan-Lekić) into Scodru (Skadar). Archaeological remains (the Roman settlement and road remains and the fragments of milestones) found in Riječani, Nikšić, Podgorica, Tuzi, Vuksan-Lekić and Skadar (the southeastern parts of the province of Dalmatia) point out that this area was connected by the network of Roman roads. However, it is believed today that Publius Cornelius Dolabella started building the road network and that it was finished during the rule of Claudius, i.e., in 48 AD. All the other dates (the 3rd and 4th centuries) and inscriptions are related to the road repair or renovation. We, however, do not have enough records which would enable us to determine easily reliable and precise location of these stations today. Therefore, the systematic research of this area, left to be done, will enable us to do that.

The article deals with bone and flint hunting projectile points of the Late Palaeolithic sites of Byki, situated in the Seym basin (Kursk oblast of Russia) and dated to between 18 000—14 000 uncal. years BP. The flint assemblages of Byki 1 and 7 (layers Ia & I) are charactrized by the presence of geometric microliths. The great similarity of the flint artifacts points to their industrial unity. The analysis of the osteological and paleogeographic evidence leads to the conclusion that the faunal assemblages of the sites belong to the boreal sub-group of the mammoth theriocomplex of Late Valdai. The basic game species were hare, Arctic fox, reindeer and horse. The authors pay particular attention to the question of the relationship between bone and stone hunting tools.

Meadows constitute more than 50% of the area of the Pisia valley. The flora existing in thesemeadows consists of about 200 species, of which 150 can be considered as typical of such habitats.The plants include 14 engendered, protected species. The flora of the Pisia valley meadows formsat least 15 semi-natural plant communities falling into four classes. The biotopes belonging to theclass Molinio-Arrhenatheretea dominate. Among them are rare, engendered: Molinietum caeruleae,Cericetum cespitosae and Arrhenatheretum elatioris. The meadow-type biotopes found in thePisia valley have been transformed substantially as a result of intensive utilisation and changes inthe habitats in which they occur. Five of the plant communities have been designated as highlyengendered.

Within the borders of the modern Lodz voivodship we can find traces of multi-religious society.Lodz, which is described as a multicultural city, is the best example of coexisting communitieswhich differ in their religious believes. Orthodox Christians began to arrive in the Lodz voivodshipterritory due to the Russian administrative system.
