Et Al. 2004, 16-18, fig. 3-13), Mágherus-Losonczi (Székely 1965, 273; Bartók 2005, pl. 49/1) or lately Päuleni- Várdomb (Lazarovici Et Al. 2000, 95, pl. XIV/4-6), but the context of discoveries or their stratigraphic report is unknown or unpublished. The appearance of these elements in settlements of the Ariusd culture, associated in some cases with discoveries typical for the Cucuteni A-В period from Moldavia demonstrate once again the existence of tight connections between the two extensive cultural areas - on the one hand the one from the middle Danube area and on the other hand the eastern Carpathian one. The phenomenon formerly observed based on the circulation of objects specific for the metallurgy of the period (Patay 1958; Dumitrescu 1961; Vulpe 1973; Raczky 2000; Mares 2002), materialised through the eastern Transylvanian regions, where the communities of the late Ariusd culture probably played a determining role. The existence of such a late phase of the Ariusd culture, in parallel with the Cucuteni A-В phase and the late Bodrogkeresztúr period, characterised by the gradual disappearance of the painted pottery and apparition of new forms, resulted on the account of the relations and maybe cultural synthesis with the ‘western world’ seems to be sustained by the data of the settlements from Cristuru Secuiesc, Mugeni, Reci or Tärgu Mures. Establishing the content and details of this cultural and chronological level requires the re-evaluation and valuation of the former excavations and the undertaking of new field researches.
