The subject of this paper is related with some solar and celestial representation discovered in the intra-Carpathian space dated from the Late Iron Age. The paper will focus on water-birds protomes discovered at Sarmizegetusa Regia and Costești-„Cetățuie”, water-birds shaped handles on some situlae  and other birds representation.  As well the study will focus on the association of this water-bird representation with wheels or chariots and some vessels. The research is not concerned only on discussion of the symbolism of this group of representation, but as well on understanding the origins and how the idea travelled from one community to other and finally reach the space lived by Dacian communities.

鸭子和卡车。追踪水鸟和前罗马 DACIA 战车的起源

本文的主题与在晚铁器时代在喀尔巴阡山脉内部空间中发现的一些太阳和天体表征有关。该论文将重点关注在 Sarmizegetusa Regia 和 Costeşti-„Cetățuie” 发现的水鸟原型，一些水鸟形状的手柄和其他鸟类代表。该研究还将重点关注这种水鸟表现与轮子或战车和一些船只的关联。该研究不仅关注讨论这组代表的象征意义，还关注理解起源和想法如何从一个社区传播到另一个社区，最终到达达契亚社区所居住的空间。
