Oksywie culture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oksywie Culture was an archaeological culture which existed in the area of modern day Eastern Pomerania around the lower Vistula river from the 2nd century BC to the early 1st century AD.
The Oksywie culture is named after the village Oksywie, now part of the city of Gdynia in northern Poland, where the first archaeological finds typical of this culture were discovered.
Archaeological research of last decades near Pomerania in Poland suggests the transition of the local component of the Pomeranian culture into the Oksywie culture in the 2nd century BC.
