Archaeological Finds belonging to the Late Hallstatt and La Tine Period from Cämin 129 • Fragment of an iron knife, the back of blade is arched (HaD type) very corroded; length of the fragment: 11 cm; inv. no. 8833 (PL 11/1). • Fragments of iron slag, inv. no. 24.823-825 (PI. 10/1-2). • Beside the iron slag a severely corroded iron object, a socketed tick iron sheet (probably a tool, without known analogies) was found; inv. no. 18.101 (PI. 10/5). In the filling of the feature a considerable quantity of animal bones was found; among them there were some utensils: a polished cow rib and a cut and sharpened antler. Apparently - and based on analogies (Szabó 2007, 285-295) - they belonged to bos primigenius, cervus elaphus, capreolus capreolus, sus crofa, lepus europeus, equus caballus, but no archaeozoological examinations had been carried out yet. The settlement continued towards Cäpleni (zone D), where a large quantity of La Тёпе ceramics had been collected, coming mainly from the drainage ditch along the left side of Crasna River from the 6.2 to 6.8 river km. • Rim and body fragment of a wheel-thrown, graphite and grog-tempered, rough-surfaced big dolium; inv. no. 15.736 (PI. 15/2). • Rim and body fragment of a hand-made, sand-tempered, grey coloured bowl with inverted rim; inv. no. 24.797 (Pi. 18/1). • Fragment of a wheel-thrown, sand-tempered, grey coloured, deep bowl; rim diam.: 22 cm; inv. no. 17.921. • Neck and body fragment of a wheel-thrown, bottle-shaped vessel, it is grey outside, its neck is decorated with a lattice decoration between two burnished lines; inv. no. 19.031 (PI. 18/2). • Body fragment of a wheel-thrown, sand-tempered, engobe dipped, grey coloured pot with burnished lattice decoration; inv. no. 15.741 (PI. 18/5). • Body fragment of a wheel-thrown, sand-tempered, smooth-surfaced, grey coloured pot with burnished lattice decoration; inv. no. 15.742 (PL 18/4). • Rim and body fragment of a wheel-thrown, graphite-tempered, steel grey coloured situla, decorated with circular fishbone pattern under its rim; inv. no. 15.735 (Pi. 18/6). *** The pottery of the sites can be divided into two major groups: hand-made and wheelthrown vessels. Among the hand-made vessels the ‘B’ type bowls of different size are popular (Németi 1988a, pi. 6/9-15; Németi 2010, pl. 13/1-7); the ‘C’ type barrel-shaped pots (Németi 1988a, pi. 6/16-22; Németi 2010, pl. 13/8-18); body and rim fragments of A’ type big vessels (Németi 1988a, pi. 6/2-8; Németi 2010, pl. 12/1-7). Fragments of‘D’ and ‘E’ type jars and beakers (Németi 1988a, pi. 7/1-13; Németi 2010, pl. 14/1-8; 15/1-5). These types of vessels can be found in the A’ type of the Sajópetri-Hosszú-dűlő settlement (Szabó-Tankó 2007, 167- 176). The most frequent types of vessels are the T type situlae (Németi 1988a, pl. 8/18; Németi 2010, pl. 18/12-13); ‘H’ type bowls with inverted rim (Németi 1988a, pi. 8/8-13; Németi 2010, pl. 17/1-4); ‘J’ type deep bowls (Németi 1988a, pi. 8/19-26; Németi 2010, pl. 17/6; 18/1-10); ‘K’ type bottle-shaped vessels (Németi 1988a, pi. 9/1-11; Németi 2010, pl. 18/1-6). The typology of the beakers, cups and jars fragments could be specified only according to their handles. These types of vessels can be found in the ‘B’ type of the settlement at Sajópetri-Hosszú-dűlő (Szabó-Tankó 2007, 167-176). The lid revealed in the dwelling LI is rear, it belongs to the ‘N’ type (Németi 2010, pl. 19/12). Analogies can be mentioned from the settlement at Biharia (Dumitrascu 1982, 157-166, pi. 5/1) or grave 2 from Farmos (Hellebrandt 1999, pl. 6/3). This type of lid can be also found in LT D settlements attributed to Dacians: (Crisan 1969, 132,
