dc.description.abstract | In 2006 for the first time on Wawcl Hill in Cracow remains of heating construction
of hypocaustum type based on heating and distributing the heated air
in used interiors (habitable, bathing) were discovered. The object was revealed
in the course of archaeological works carried out in the cellar and on the ground
floor of the Gothic building raised around the half of the 15'h century (before
1460) within so-called Upper Castle at the Gothic curtain defensive wall (fig. I).
In the cellar of the building, in the north-west corner, stone foundation of a stove
preserved (added to the walls of the cellar) (fig. 2, 4). Beneath the present floor
of the ground floor, the upper brick part of its chamber, covered with arched
vault, thermal channels and original usable level (mortar) together with remains
of two stone slabs with heating holes (fig. 3, 5) were revealed. In places, in surroundings
of the stove on the surface of the vault fill also leveling with imprints
of ceramic floor tiles prcscrved. In the partition wall of the cellar (originally a side
wall of the stove) there is a quadrangular hole surmounted with an arch - most
probably the inlet of the stove (fig. 6). After battering down the lower part of the
stove, it was completely built over from the side of the main stove chamber. From
side of longish "corridor" room (so-called treasury-room) it was only partially
filled with Gothic bricks joined with clay.
Remains of hypocaustum construction show that it was a one-chamber object.
No traces of grate were found. The grate chamber at the same time served
as heating chamber. A problem of carrying away combustion gas from the stove
inside (the run of the flue) remains unsolved as well as high - not functional location
of the inlet hole (may be one of two situated on different levels) as well
as function of the stove - whether it played only heating role or was equipment
of a bath? | pl_PL |
