Pd II represents an overlap of the Neolithic-Chalcolithic with the early Iron Age [4.16] culture. While the blade industry is absent, the Iron Age makes itself felt by arrowheads, spearheads, and knife-blades, together the typical Megalithic Black-and-red Ware [11.15.3] and all-black ware. Megalithic cairns and dolmenoid cist circles [4.17] are found on the w. of the site and to the n. of the hill slopes. The Pd has bone, carnelian, terracotta, gold, green stone and antler beads.
