SHOPPER'S DELIGHT

Newest archeological findings shows four major strongholds (" Grod ") in the early Polans State:

Giecz - place from where Piasts gained control over other groups of Polans

Poznań - the biggest grod in the state, probably the main stronghold

Gniezno - probably the religious center of the state, but there are no archological findings to prove this theory

Ostrów Lednicki - small stronghold halfway between Poznań and Gniezno

The tribal union led by the Piast dynasty soon turned into what is now Poland .
