Amongst urns associated with the Pomorska culture there is a small number of those with representations of carts, mounted steeds, horses and footsoldiers. Those atypical representations made on items of huge eschatological significance seem to play an important role in their makers’ religious system. Some of narrative scenes shown on them suggest, that they are images of funeral games – horse, cart or foot races and fight competitions, which we know from historical and literary sources describing various Indo-European societies. It shows, that similar rituals were propably performed by people of the Pomorska culture. By putting their images on urns used in funeral, their makers, people with mythical perception of reality implemented their effects without performing them in physical way.
