Summary/Abstract: The monograph analyses the origin of artefacts (the elements of attire and equipment of an armed merchant, from the Volga Upland in Volga Bulgaria), unusual for north-eastern Poland and found during the excavations in Szurpiły in the Suwałki Region. It is an interesting journey along the trade routes of the early Middle Ages, which links culturally different and geographically distant regions of Europe.
