Catagory A - painted pottery (PI. 10). Its occurrence enriches the assortment of pottery in all foursettlement honzons. The most common form in the assemblage is represented by barrel shaped profiles with thickened or beaded rime, occurring from the earliest horizon onwards. The long time span between horizons 2-4 contained globular bowts as well as tripartite pots with shouldered necks. Other forma, such as pots with rounded profiles and out-tumed rims as well as intumed-rim bowls are stratigraphically later. Flasks and cups

belong to the last horizon. The most simple and common decorałion represented on aM forma were horaonM stripes of various widths, painted in white. red or sepia colours, often in a combmaflon af twór cotours. Mm compiete patterns consieting of wavy lines of sepia cołour painted over the horizontat white stripes, arby feta combing drawn in stripes over the white coiour occurred anty excsptionafly in the eeriy period (hanzon 2). Iw the (atest fourth horizon, when the painted pottery ia most rich in forma, the vanety of patterns ie atso morę dhrerse. There is evidence of inciaed minutę wavy lines withwi the white psantsd stripe, red traffia decoraMan. ind a complicated scheme of sepia meanders, wavy Bnee, cheąuered omam anta and sarmardas. cowanwg the fundamenta! ornament of white and red horizontat stripea (Rg. 26:12). Spattalty. painted pottery fest oocurs as iaolated finds in horizon 1 in Part I (ashy layer) and Part II (feature 117). From hnri7rm z mwti. the distribution of painted pottery mcreasea espedaily in the area af the deeetaping courtyards. The fest courtyard in Part I yielded samples of painted pottery in settlement features 141,142, 146.148, 156, 156. 187. It ałso occurred in a secondary position m the ffll of the detached „Grubenhaus** II by the nedi fortMcaMon.

In the aecond courtyard, situated at the boundary fine of Parts l and 11, painted pottery sherds were repreaentad in settlement features lii, IV, 128,130,132,175, and in the neighbouringthird courtyard in satttBmentfeoftiraa 85,110,116. They were also identified within the fifth courtyard of Part II (features 19. 21, 23tt. 30. 32). In Part III, i.e. at the baiiey, painted aherdd were recovered within the eighth (features ?3W. 250), rńnth (25*). and tenth courtyards (features 273, 276,278). From the latest horizon 4, painted pottery was atso identified. within the scattered settlement in front of the fortification of the baiiey (features 282.765) The comparathrety numer o us quantities of painted pottery identified within the assembiages recowered from the inveedgated parts of the oppidum still do not answerthe question of its predse origin, which stiil remasw largety nyocTheticai (cf. Cumberpatch - Pawlikowski 1968, 184). It is assumed, at least in the case of simple decorałion. that dem and might have been satisfied by local production. This issupparted by twoexampłesafmMfired products.

In the sediment at the bottom of guily III, in horizon 2, an overfired, slightty deformed wefl af a vessał paaited with a white stripe was discovered (Fig. 26:7).

Its decoration of red and white coated stripes was couerod with bładc spcts. which wara protetdy ausart during production (Fig. 25:7). Such products are urtfkeły to riave been sold at marfcsf awng wrih mported goods.

Category B - fine wheei-made pottery (PI. 11). The forms distinguished in aur sssembłegB represent acollection of reftned vessels. Their occurrence over a long period of tvne. as wefl as the rnaking af rapeaSed types of various sizes indicates that craft production was tatung płace for the manufacture of popular, reąńred forms. Elevated taller forms are represented by flasks with narrownecks and owad-out rounded. excsot>onaih biconical girths (Figs. 27:3; 28:1). Contrasfing forms were represented by pots with braad necfcs and smoath surfaces, or pot-shaped vessels profiled by horizontai cordons. produced h a larga scalę in wsiom sizes (Figs. 24:1; 25:1). Amongst the taller vessełs were ałso barrełs wrth symmaSiaiy cunrert bodiss and msiuas rims. They appeared to be produced in both larga and smali forms (Figs. 2*:9:25.4). Cups of fsgh ahoułdsrsd form with steep, slightty intumed rims (Fig. 21:14). in some csses stightty thickened (Fig. 27:308, can anly be distinguished with difficuity amongst the frag men tary materiał. ShsAow types. such as boads. appear to show stabilised and balanced forms. Tripartite bowls have short upsżanding necfcs with a beaded nm. They occur in various sizes (Figs. 21:3; 27:8). Bowis with rounded profflas without necfcs reraly had beaded nms (Fig. 23:4). Usually, the rim was intumed, and in some cases the bowls were tfcpartoa. with Sharp shouśdsr angtes and intumed rims (Figs. 24:4; 25:5). The shouider angłe was sumafcmas dsrnmert with a norami cardon (Rg. 27:17). The fine pottery assemblage also induded lids. Vanous profiles and sam ndkitoart that tiey covered a variety of pottery forms (Rg. 27:13,16). The pofehed fine pottery surfecs was grey cdoured and induded matt ornaments, sometimes decorating the surface of pots and barreł shaperi vessałsar the mner parts of bowl-shaped forms. The bumished lines form horizontai narrow or broadar stripes o# sanous efiflfes (Rgs. 23:11; 24:4; 25:4. 5; 28:6, 8. 9). In axceptionai cases. wavy Bros atso oocur an the shaułders af pots (Rg. 28:5, 7) or inside bowis (feature 116). Horizontai shaflow groowes dhritfing the areils of cups (Fig. 27:22. 30) occasionally occur, as well as cross-hatching to surfaces by sharply nasad groovee (Fig. 28:10). Fine grey pottery accompanies all four settlement horizans. Its vanous forms appear mostły to have been produced over a long period, between horizons 2 to 4. The uariety of forms within honzon 1. limrted :o tragments o# flasks and a pot profile, is very sparse and almost csrtamly only reflects the Iow number ofsrtttement features identified. Several pottery types have been dassified only in the latest stratigraphic horizons, such as the modification of barrel-shaped vessels with a bipartito shouider ar wrih a single oordon. and głotoular bowls with beaded rims. These later types might hawe been m assoaaoon with the broadar renety of matanat generalły found in this latest horizon.also tnieeiihecaseofotoerpottsrycattgoaea. Spadały, thefeiewheal-madB
