The type site of an earlier Bronze Age group in the lowland Banat, dated to the early 2nd millennium BC. Located near Kikinda (north Yugoslavia), it has a large cemetery with over 300 graves. The graves are organized in 11 lines radiating from the central area, a possible indication of family groupings. Some rich graves have gold ornaments and imported metal objects.

Type site of an earlier Bronze Age group (Periam in western Rumania, Mokrin in north Yugoslavia, Szoreg in south Hungary) in the lowland Banat, dated to the early 2nd millennium be. The type site, near Kikinda, north Yugoslavia, is, like most other sites in the group, a large cemetery with over 300 graves. The graves are organized in 11 lines radiating from the central area, a possible indication of family groupings. Earlier grave goods occur in the more northerly graves, whilst most of the rich graves, with gold ornaments and imported metal objects, lie further south.
