  ABSTRACT: Much has been written about the battle from 3300 years ago in the Tollense Valley, known as the “Pomeranian Troy”, which, according to historians, could not have taken place. The problem is that every year, instead of new information with research results, we get materials and opinions that contradict those given earlier. Somewhere suddenly disappeared Poles and Scandinavians, who were mentioned in the first reports about the work on this find, have suddenly disappeared. Unfortunately, it looks like a deliberate manipulation of facts and propaganda acrobatics with ethnonyms (suddenly Germans appeared there, who had not been mentioned before), playing for time and providing research reports in accordance with the historical policy pursued by Germany. One should ask: Why are Polish and many other foreign archaeologists not interested in such a sensational find? On several historical discussion groups, people claiming to be archaeologists, as it turned out, had not even heard about this discovery in 2017 and asked for links to an article in “Science”, because they thought it was “a hoax”. Is it an expression of ignorance of our scholars or is it just a game in the repetition of old paradigms created for the sake of the philogermanic version of history? Therefore, it is worth reviewing the state of research on this discovery and considering possible theses about the origins of the participants in this ancient battle, as well as its significance at that time, which I will briefly discuss in this article. I also present the thesis on the expansion of the Veneti to the Baltic Sea, as well as the report from my visit to Schwerin in 2016 and the meeting with Dr. Detlef Jantzen, responsible for the Tollensetal archaeological site.
