Abstract: Starting with the first half of the 20th century, many (sau a lot) archaeological sites have been discovered in the Lower Olt Valley, dated chronologically and culturally in the second half of the 5th millennium BC, in the Late Eneolithic, the Sălcuța culture. Detailed description of the main site, Sălcuța – Piscul Cornișorului, are available in the monograph published by Dumitru Berciu in 1961. Pottery is an element of material culture that is especially useful in establishing chronological and cultural data. Therefore, in this article were analyzed a number of 17 vessels (unpublished or less known) from a technological, morphological and stylistic point of view belonging to the Sălcuţa culture. The frequency of the forms and ornamentations within the major pottery form type categories provide additional evidence of a shared ceramic tradition at the large or small settlements in the Oltenia region. That’s why, we consider it necessary to present the repertoire of the Sălcuța-type settlements, providing an overview of the research history. We mention that the analyzed pottery comes from the archaeological collection of the Olt County Museum.
