Summary/Abstract: This paper presents 33 anthropomorphic statuettes discovered at Costisa ‘Cetăţuia’ during the 1959, 1960 and 1962 campaigns. Classifying them according to body position is difficult given the high degree of fragmentation. The text includes a brief description of the anatomical features and decoration patterns of the artifacts. More anthropomorphic statuettes were discovered following systematic research at Costişa between 2001 and 2008 and in 2010. Only the older finds are summarized here. In the future these will be correlated with all the data from the Chalcolithic settlement at Cetăţuia.
