Summary/Abstract: This paper presents an interpretation of the perforated ceramic artifacts found in the Neolithic and Eneolithic site from Alba Iulia-Lumea Noua during the 2003-2015 excavation campaigns. The artefacts are unpublished and currently are part of the archeological collection of Alba Iulia University. I have studied 56 artefacts and framed them according to typologic and functional criteria in 5 categories: spindle whorls, clay pendants, ceramic repairs, accounting tokens, and undefined artefacts.
