Summary/Abstract: Archaeological survey for the settlement of Saharna-Dealul Mănăstirii in 2011, like in the previous season, was focused on its south-eastern outskirts.The excavations revealed a number of closed complexes, in particular the household pits, many of which contained an interesting ceramic material.The obtained data by all the characteristic features is similar to the findings related to the culture Cozia-Saharana (10th -8th centuries BC) that were previously found in the settlement. The fact that the chronological period is a little expanded proves that the settlement functioned for quite a long time.
