N2  - Magdalenian sites in the area of the Ryczów Upland (central part of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland)
belong to extremely rare finds, and until recently they had been identified almost exclusively with short-term campsites
in the region of the Kroczyckie Rocks, situated in the north-eastern part of the Upland under scrutiny. Therefore, new
sites associated with the Magdalenian Culture presented in this paper are so important. These sites were encountered in
the south-eastern zone of the Ryczów Upland. As proved by the conducted studies, the above-mentioned zone is at the
same time very rich in siliceous rocks of excellent quality. It seems that the location of the sites addressed in this paper is
directly connected with raw material management focused on these high-quality flint materials, and the region under
scrutiny could have played a significant role in communication routes of Magdalenian communities.
