Funnelbeaker culture - Objects
The culture is named for its characteristic ceramics, beakers and amphorae with funnel-shaped tops, which were probably used for drinking. One spectacular find which may be assigned to the Funnelbeaker culture is a pot excavated at Bronocice, Poland which shows apparently the very first depiction of a wheeled vehicle (here, a wagon) anywhere; this would date from somewhere after 4000.
The technology was flint-based, of which the deposits found in Belgium and on the island of Rügen as well as deposits in the Krakow area were important.
The culture used Battle Axes which were stone versions of Central Europe's copper axes. The early versions were multi-angled, and the later are called double-edged, although one of the edges is more rounded.
