The spiritual connotations of the neo-eneolithic art are related not only to magical-religious practices, but also to the ability of the artistic representations in order to give force on the symbolism which is emitted into the institutionalization process of the new faith. The manner in which the figures were shaped, the attitudes that they release etc., is nothing but an artistic expression of a way of manifesting the sacred through the communicative function of symbols. The artistic representations reflect a particular aspect of the religious manifestations. Thus, this is the reason why determining the functionality of the neo-eneolithic anthropomorphic pieces raises a number of problems due to the typological and morphological variety. Key words: neo-eneolithic art, signs, symbols, religious themes. The spiritual life of the prehistoric communities seems to be a combination of cultural practices, amongst the most diverse ones, integrated into a system of ideas and religious beliefs, articulated around some symbols which were worshipped by the entire community. The artistic representations, engraved with such decorations, also reflect a particular aspect of the religious manifestations. This is the reason why determining the functionality of the neo- eneolithic anthropomorphic pieces raises a number of problems due to typological and morphological variety. Thus, we find artistic representations used during some processions where the entire community would attend (the monumental statues), but also some pieces which proved the existence of a familial, domestic cult, as it is the case of the anthropomorphic handle covers or the perforated idols who could be used as amulets. During the current state of the research it is almost impossible to determine precisely which parts were, or were not used while conducting certain rituals, reason why the multiple functional hypotheses of these artistic representations could be a step in trying to explain the complexity of the religious phenomenon. Among the most basic symbolic forms found in the Neo-Eneolithic art we can include
