Summary/Abstract: pottery, Sarmatians, grave, Avars, Felnac, Lower Mureș.The article aims at presenting several discoveries that have remained as yet unpublished, madeduring the rescue archaeological excavations performed in Felnac more than half a century ago, by a team ofarchaeologists from the museum in Arad. From a chronological perspective the study envisages two horizonsattributed to populations that reached the Carpathian Basin in different periods of the first Christian Millennium.The items are one pot with special decoration, more rarely encountered during the Sarmatian period, and twograves from the Avar Period.Regarded in a wider context, we believe that the information thus published will contribute to the repertoryof discoveries for both eras in question.
