Six graffiti from the time of the Dacian Kingdom were discovered at Covasna – Cetatea Zânelor (Fairies Fortress). Four vessels with graffiti can be associated with a building having the roof supported by three rows of wooden pillars. Two signs were made before firing and other four after burning, on good quality vessels, preserved in a fragmentary condition. The main issue is whether these graffiti are simple scratches or graphic signs.
