Context (Amendments / updates)
Accession Register originally records 'Pottery, Cucuteni B type'. Two handwritten notes have been found with the sherds, describing the sherds as 'Bilzce sherds' and 'Cucuteni B sherds' respectively. It is possible that the sherds are all of Cucuteni B type. This will need to be analysed by an expert. For now, 'Bilzce' and 'Cucuteni B' are retained in the description.
