Experts on the basis of research conducted here in various years of the twentieth century (the first research in the 50s as part of the Carpathian Archaeological Expedition), and thus finds, date them to the eighth-tenth century, and so from the time of the Vistulan state. Although things were found here that would indicate that already in Roman times this area was somehow used. Perhaps the road that we finally entered the stronghold was in the old days a trade route leading to the turn of Beskid nad Ożenna, when the route in the Wisłoka Valley could not be used. Now this road is practically no longer used, but on older maps (eg WIG) it is the one that runs towards the stronghold as the main one. Of the three embankment lines that the stronghold once had to our times, two have survived, probably because the stronghold's area is used as arable fields (although to a lesser degree). At the same time, the second embankment is not visible around the entire perimeter of the stronghold clearly visible, while the third one from the south is not visible at all. The most visible and at the same time the highest embankments are located on the west side, and the highest one is the hill that leads directly to the Maidan. From the south-west side, below the embankment falling from the Maidan, you can still see traces of the moat separating the embankments. The Maidan itself is also used for agriculture, and its area is about 1.7 ha and in the widest places it is from 150 to 160 m. It is not very level terrain, in the central part there is the highest point, from which the area descends to the outskirts.
