In the eastern Hungarian Körös tributaries, the early Bronze Age first saw the introduction of the Makó culture, followed by the Ottomány and Gyulavarsánd cultures.
Used mainly for irrigation and drainage, it crosses the city of Salonta and then flows into Hungary where it joins the Fekete-Körös.
The Indo-European migration has variously been dated to the end of the Neolithic (Marija Gimbutas: Corded ware, Yamna, Kurgan), the early Neolithic (Colin Renfrew: Starčevo-Körös, Linearbandkeramic) and the late Palaeolithic (Marcel Otte, Paleolithic Continuity Theory).
The oldest Neolithic settlement in Romania (believed to have been established around 6500 BCE) belonging to the Starčevo–Kőrös–Criş culture was discovered at the north of Valea Lungă.
Körös or Criş, a river that flows into Tisza, was used for an archeological site of the Starcevo-Körös culture
The Körös culture is an Neolithic archaeological culture in Central Europe that was named after the river Körös in eastern Hungary.
West of the village of Kelebia, the Körös-ér becomes a border river between Hungary and Serbia.
In addition, the Hungarian towns of Kiskőrös and Nagykőrös are often commonly referred to as Kőrös – as "ő" is simply the long variant of "ö" with the difference being almost negligible.
The Indo-European migration had variously been dated to the end of the Neolithic (Marija Gimbutas: Corded ware, Yamna, Kurgan), the early Neolithic (Colin Renfrew: Starčevo-Körös, Linearbandkeramic) and the late Palaeolithic (Marcel Otte, Paleolithic Continuity Theory).
Dating and research points to the influence of this culture to other Balcanic (Karanovo I-II and Starčevo-Körös) which seem to originate here, and will be these which will stimulate the birth of the important Danubian Neolithic current.
