Summary/Abstract: A recently rediscovered mould from the Teleac hillfort has a rare negative, which only has few analogies in south-eastern and central Europe. The character of the objects that could be cast from this mould is discussed in this paper, along with their potential function. Although it is an uncommon mould type, it has a large distribution area from the Black Sea to the Rhine valley.
