Studies of the typical late Neolithic Corded Ware beakers are usually undertaken from a morphological point of view, and describe the shape and decoration of the vessel. Interesting details can, however, also be identified via the technical description of the twisted cord impressions. In this paper, a clear methodology of such a technical analysis is presented. This analysis points out different quality standards of both the vessels and their patterning. The cord impressions have also been correlated with organic finds of cords from the same period. With the help of experimental archaeology, facts were investigated which elucidate the possible raw material used for the cord impressions, the quality of the clay, and the surface condition of the beakers.
