Abstract
The article discusses the new finds of fluted maces (Type B) in the Baltic-Pontic Area. The first absolute dating of a Type-A mace is offered and two mace occurrence horizons are characterised, one referring to the second half of the 3rd millennium BC, and the other to the second half of the 2nd and the early 1st millennia BC. The topogenesis and cultural attribution of the maces are suggested and their role in establishing long-distance transit routes is described.
