They are targeting not only the material aspects of daily life but the spiritual life of its different ethnic components, as well. A series of prismatic pendants made of antlers decorated with circles century are documented in the 4 th century AD graves of women and children. Some scholars, such as J. Werner and I. Ioniţă have regarded them as replicas of type Herkuleskeule amulets. They were adopted in the Germanic world as symbols of the god Thor/Donau. This work presents such type of amulets discovered in some of the 4 th century AD necropolises that underwent research in Romania and the Republic of Moldova.

The trench T. IV/2016 (105 sq. m), in the north-western mega-structure area (ca. 1500 sq. m), was investigated completely. In this trench, three structures/dwellings (S./D.5–7/2016), a household complex (with hearth H.5/2016) and ten pits (P. 4–13/2016), components of quasi-central mega-structure, were researched. Each structure/dwelling had a robust wooden support (pillars, wattle and laths panels, thick planks, beams, lengthwise splinted trunks), covered with thick layers of clay, and strong burnt by fire. S./D. 6–7/2016 were storeyed buildings (with ground floor and functional attic/loft). The outer walls of S./D.5 (NE) and S./D.7 (SV) were massive, perhaps with role of closing the mega-structure enclosure. Also, new magnetometer surveys were carried out (spring and autumn 2016), all over the site preserved surface (10,5 ha), highlighting a great cucutenian habitation (ca. 20/25 ha, including the eroded area), with systematized organization: quasi-concentric circular arrangement of built space, compact groups of dwellings, structures for cultic delimitation (?) and fortification–ditches, palisades (?), superposed by several ashmounds (Noua culture).

Studying these analogies can be useful to have a clearer picture of the spiritual life of communities that have lived in the north of the Danube in the first
half millennium AD.

Since the IV th century are signaled in the graves of women and children a series of prismatic pendants made of antlers decorated with circles, which were seen by some scholars, such as J.

In this article we make a presentation of this type of amulets discovered in some of the cemeteries datated in the IV th century researched in Romania and Republic of Moldova.
