Big globular vessels and closed high bowls could have been containers for the production and storage of this substance. Miniature vessels with a handle for hanging had contained small portions. Bark pitch as an adhesive for the repair of pottery and in the construction of big idols is also testified, as is the application of this material in decoration of vessels and idols, where bark pitch was a matrix for inlaying with grains or stones and creation of a contrasting black colour in linear ornamentation. Radiocarbon dating of bark pitch now is one of the most reliable materials for age determination of the Neolithic objects}, title={Bark pitch in the Early Neolithic of Central Europe}, type={Text}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/236747/270228.pdf}, keywords={Linear Pottery culture, Central Europe, using of bark pitch in the Neolithic, radiocarbon dates}, }
