Abstract

Based on the Zsófia von Torma’s private collection, the early cultural stage, named Vinča-Turdaş, of Vinča culture (phases A and B) was defined. Later, was proved that the Turdaş site provide only elements contemporary to Vinča C phase and Turdaş culture is a different cultural and chronological entity from Vinča A and B phases. The use of correspondence analysis and the increased number of 14C dates available enables a much better overview on the Late Neolithic chronology from Transylvania. Thus, it can be established that the Turdaş culture is contemporary to Vinča C2 until beginning of D phases and Turdaş II phase = Iclod II phase.
