Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a synthesis of metal jewellery from the neo-Eneolithic period in South-Eastern Romania. It considers technological, typological, morphological and functional aspects, as well as the mineral ores used by prehistoric communities. Furthermore, the paper discusses the frequency and distribution of metal jewellery finds in the area between the Carpathians and the Balkans, the differences in archaeological contexts, and their importance in understanding the meaning of the new materials used, the colour symbolism and the use of the objects.
