IV. Liviu Marta - Nagy L. Márta - Daniel V. Sana: Ceramics
Similar shapes to type 2 of pots were discovered at Berkesz - Csonkás-dűló 74, Sanislău75, Suplacu de Barcău76, Nyírlugos77, Nyíregyháza - Pazonyi út, Tesco78 and in other neighbouring environments79, surviving unmodified in the following period as well80. Type 3 is represented by vessels with slightly arched body, slightly turned down rim, well delimited, provided with four horizontal or birds beak shaped knobs, arranged at equal intervals (PI. 1/1, 10/1 12/6, 19/8, 25/1, 35/4). In one single case these protuberances have a more functional role rather than a decorative one and they are associated with a row of punches located in the upper part of the pot (PL 10/3). It is interesting that vessels with such protuberances appear only among the discoveries assigned to the Hajdfibagos-Cehăluţ group of the northeastern Hungary81 and to the west, in the Hügelgräberkultur82 and the Piliny83 area, but not in Transylvania84. This type of pot continued to exist in the following stages, being documented among the pre-Gáva discoveries of Polgár85 and Tiszacsenge86, the protuberances appearing, in both these cases as well as in the early Gáva ones of Nagykálló, associated with thumb impressed appliqué belts87. Type 4 includes the pots with bi-conical, strongly curved body and turned down rim, provided, in some of the cases, with handles fitted in the upper part (PI. 1/6; 16/4). They are made of semi-fine clay and they lack decorations. Similar pots were identified among the discoveries assigned to the Hajdfibagos-Cehăluţ cultural group of Berkesz -Csonkás-dűló88, Alsóberecki89, Pişcolt - Nisipărie90, Crasna91, Nyíregyháza - Pazonyi 74 Kovács 1966-1967, Pl. 11/21. 75 Németi 1978, Pl. 5/3. 76 Ignat 1984, Pl.
