| Abstract: | Summary The tectonic nature of the deformed Early Palaeozoic belt along the southwestern border of the East European Craton (EEC) has long been debated. The essence of these debates is reviewed and the recently published map of the Variscan tectonics in Poland is discussed from methodological and regional points of view. The terrane origin of the Pomeranian and  ysogóry regions is questioned; they are inferred to be parts of the passive margin of the EEC (miogeocline), deformed into a marginal fold-and-thrust belt. The Ma opolska Block and especially the Upper Silesian Block could be Caledonian (proximal?) terranes. |
