Figurki wykonywano w taki sposób, by łatwiej można było je łamać – były puste w środku oraz zle-piane z kilku części (Hofmann, 2014, p. 53–56).
The publication has two authors
Both authors should be named:
[…] charakterystyczny kształt interpretowany jako nakrycie głowy lub fryzura ( Becker, Dębiec, 2014).
The publication has three or more authors
In the first quotation, all authors should be listed and in the next, only the first, replacing the rest with the abbreviation “et al.” If a publication has six or more authors, only one name and the abbreviation “et al.” should be provided:
Jedną odkryto w Koniecmostach i została wykonana z masy bez domieszki widocznej gołym okiem (Mar-ciniak, Sobkowiak-Tabaka, Bartkowiak, Lisowski, 2015).
Cztery fragmenty glinianych nóg znane są ze Zwięczycy oraz Klęczkowa, po dwie z Koniecmostów, Kopy-dłowa i Lipnicy ( Marciniak et al., 2015).
Quoting two or more publications from different authors simultaneously
The authors should be listed in alphabetical order, separating references to the publica-tions with a comma. When quoting page numbers semicolons should be used (..., 2001, p. 15; Kowalski, 2000, p. 5; …).
Gordon Childe uwzględniał znaczenie społeczne, awans społeczny (Chile, 1946, 1951; Kristiansen, Larsson, 2005, 2009).
Quoting more than one publication by a given author
After the author's name, the publication should be placed in chronological order. If the publications were published in the same year, to distinguish them, the letters of the alphabet should be included (a, b, c, etc.):
Zagadnienia realizowane na tym polu badawczym dotyczą m.in. komercjalizacji dziedzictwa prze-szłości i archeologii (Pawleta, 2011, 2012). […] Uwzględniono sposoby popularyzacji wiedzy o prze-szłości (Pawleta, 2011a, 2011b).
The authors have the same surname
The first letter of the first name before the surname of each of the authors should be in-cluded:
Archeologia procesualna dążyła do wypracowania nowej metodologii badań skutecznej w praktyce archeologicznej (L. Binford, S. Binford, 1958).
Quoting the publication is indirect
The data of the primary source should be placed at first position, then the expression "af-ter:", and finally the data of the secondary source in which the primary source is given:
[…] przedstawiano dzieci na reliefach czy w rzeźbie… co pokazują chociażby znaki hieroglificzne, lub jako miniaturowych dorosłych (Feucht, 2001, p. 262, after: Kloska, 2017).
Literal quoting
When the quoted fragment is more than 40 words long, it should be placed in a separate paragraph with indentation (5 spaces), without quotation marks, and the text should be preceded and terminated by a free line. When the quoted fragment is shorter than 40 words, it should be placed on the line of the actual text, in quotation marks:
In Mały słownik kultury dawnych Słowian we find the following definition of a stronghold:
Strongholds – places artificially fenced for defence purposes, commonly present in Slavic lands. [...] The oldest strongholds fortified with a moat and a palisade, or wooden and earth ramparts, performed various functions and were erected by different human groups. Among them, there are large strongholds, inhabited by tribal and ancestral communities, engaged in agriculture and breeding, as well as small size strongholds of forming a feudal layer of society. (Leciejewicz, 1962, p. 131)
Footnotes should not be used, except for explanations that would not be consistent with the text
