Anna Czekanowska was born in Lwów on June 25th 1929, daughter of a prominent anthropologist and ethnologist, Jan Czekanowski.
Jan Steszewski, the ethnomusicologist, became the Head of the Musicological Department at the University of Adam Mickiewicz in Poznan.
The diagram by Jan Czekanowski was used by Anna in her M. thesis (1952, published in 1956) but not published later, because it could arouse suspicion of "formalism," which could cause serious consequences in those times.

Jan Czekanowski earned himself a lasting place in the history of the social sciences as an eminent scholar of African anthropology and as the creator of the Polish school of anthropology (Jones 2002; Czekanowska-Kuklińska, Bar 2002).
Czekanowski’s methodology should be recognised, however, as an ideology-free and lasting contribution to the development of quantitative linguistics.
In the 1940’s Czekanowski’s concepts were a novelty in the lecture halls of the world and they foretold the imminent arrival of advanced multidimensional methods.

Jan Mayen is an integrated geographical body of Norway.
The present name of the island is derived from this, the claim of its 1611 discovery by a Dutch navigator, Jan Mayen, being unsupportable.
