This article presents the stratigraphic and chronological data found during the archaeological surveys Northeast of the tell settlement at Luncavita, point « Cetățuia » (Tulcea County).

In this short contribution we analysed the flint and polished stone material discovered by E. Comșa in the archaeological test pit excavated in 1959, on the tell settlement from Luncavița, „Cetățuia” point. Named Trench B, it had the dimensions 8 × 3 m and it was excavated in the interval 12-26 November 1959, in this campaign participating, alongside E. Comșa, Gh. Cantacuzino and G. Simion. In this analysis, we approached several aspects that contribute to improving our understanding of an artifact`s operational sequence from raw material block to discarded item.

This paper analyzes the polished stone objects (35 in total) found in the Gulmenita culture settlement at Trestenic, Nalbant commune, Tulcea County. The site was found in 1988, during surface investigations and is situated on a low terrace, close to Techea Creek. In 1989, the only archaeological survey campaign was conducted. On this occasion, an area 25 m long and 5 m wide was incompletely set out and researched, down to 3.35 m. In this analysis, we approached several aspects that contribute to improving our understanding of an artifact’s operational sequence from raw material block to discarded item.
