Summary/Abstract: Our paper aims to define the typological and functional structure of the polished stone assemblage from Hoiseşti − “La Pod” settlement. In order to achieve our goal, for a typological ordering, we used a series of morphological variables which helped us define three major groups of tools, each group being further divided into types. Also, in order to establish the possible function of each group and type of tools we started from the already established morphological characteristics, adding ethnological and use-wear data and observations.
