That Transylvania was in the center of trade in gold and that its sources played the most important role over all eastern central Europe and in the western Pontic area is indicated by large gold treasures like those from Șmig in eastern Romania ... The Tufalau and Șmig hoards are presumed to belong to the Wietenberg cultural group of eastern Transylvania.
