Concerns regarding the Early History section

he early history in the article raises several issues (related to WP:VER, WP:RS, WP:NOR). Brief points of criticism:

Alleged Celtic origins (4th–3rd century BC) The claim of "probable Celtic origin" cites karpacz.pl. The Polish version mentions a theory by Walter Quiring (shaft shapes + etymology "Eule" ← Celtic "Jilova"), while the English version omits the Celts entirely. No archaeological finds support Celtic activity in the upper mountains. This appears to be speculative local tradition rather than established fact – it should be clearly marked as such or removed.

Affiliation with Poland from the 10th century This is nominally correct for Silesia as a whole, but misleading for the uninhabited high-altitude border forest (Przesieka). Direct Piast control is highly unlikely.

Gesta principum Polonorum The chronicle only describes high mountains and dense forests in general terms during the 1110 Bohemian campaign (Book II). There is no reference to the region or Karpacz specifically. Direct attribution is synthesis (WP:SYNTH). It requires a reliable secondary source that explicitly makes the connection.

Official website as a source The Polish and English versions of karpacz.pl contradict each other (Celts vs. only Walloons from the 12th century onward). This casts doubt on its reliability. Municipal tourism websites are often unsuitable for detailed historical claims. ~2026-91462-2 (talk) 06:41, 16 February 2026 (UTC)
