Abstract

This article discusses the main assumptions and methodological procedures used in the ‘Lexicon of Katyn Archaeology (1990–2015)’ project. The authors highlight the research and social significance of archaeological research into the Katyn Massacre. They discuss and explain the need for an integrative methodological perspective (archaeology, history, ethnography – cultural anthropology) that allows for the reconstruction and recognition of the significance of archaeological research, as well as the massacre itself, in aspects that sometimes escape historical studies, archaeological reports, and analytical scholarly texts – in biographical, personal, and emotional contexts.

Keywords:

Katyn Massacre, archaeology, ethnography, ethnoarchaeology of the contemporary past, integrative perspective, history, methodology
