Abstract
Marinescu-Bilcu describes the main Cucuteni occupation at the site, which was phase A. Several houses were found and excavated. The houses were mainly located within a fortification, but there were a few dwellings located outside the fortification. They may have been located there to protect the domestic animals. The dwellings are described in detail, along with the ceramics, stone tools, and bone tools. The artifacts are well illustrated.
