Found in burial No. 16 in the Village of Zvenyhorod. It has a pear-shaped form. The bottom I s flat with protruding edges. The neck is narrowed. The pot is light orange in color and has been restored from separate fragments.
The archaeological site in Zvenуhorod is characterized by the difficulty of determining the ethnicity of the population that lived on this territory in the last centuries BC and the first centuries AD. Tribes of the Przeworsk culture penetrate here from the northwest along the Western Bug, and later the tribes of the Lypytsya culture and the Zarubintsy (from the south). Due to the cohabitation of the bearers of these cultures and the cultural exchange, which actively took place in particular between the tribes of the Przeworsk and Lipytsya cultures, as well as essentially the same burial rite (cremation, in urns), the existence of both stucco and pottery ceramics, clearly attribute the archaeological sites as belonging to only one culture is difficult.
