In Dobrudza, the region situated between the Lower Danube and the Black Sea, Durankulak had around 600 Hamangia burials (Todorova 2002), and Cernavodă 556 (Morintz et al 1955; Berciu and Morintz 1957, 1959; Berciu et al 1959, 1961; Necrasov et al 1990). There are two more Hamangia cemeteries discovered in this area, at Mangalia and Limanu, unfortunately with little precise information (Kogălniceanu 2012 and references therein).…”
