Celts in Transylvania returned from the Balkan Peninsula and settled on the Pannonian Plain and in Transylvania. Helmets with reinforced crests are typically eastern Celtic and can be traced as they spread from the western margins of Taurisci territory at Mihovo, to be subsequently used by the Scordisci at Batina and throughout Transylvania (Apahida, Ciumeşti). A wheeled cauldron or "Kesselwagen", used as a crematory urn during the later Celtic Bronze Age ritual assemblage, was found at Orăştie, Romania. This one is notionally drawn by teams of water-birds. A coin type from Ciumesti shows a warrior wearing a wild boar crest on his helmet
