A '''cordoned bucket''' or '''ribbed cista''' ([[Italian language|Italian]]: {{lang|it|Cista a cordoni}}, [[German language|German]]: {{lang|de|Rippenziste}}) is a type of [[Iron Age]] ribbed, cylindrical [[bronze]] [[bucket]]. Examples have been found across Europe, though especially in [[Italy]], [[Istria]], and [[Slovenia]]. Cordoned buckets date to between the 8th and 4th centuries BC, within the [[Hallstatt culture|Hallstatt]] and early [[La Tène culture|La Tène]] cultures. The earliest were produced within central-northern Europe, spreading quickly outwards. Cordoned buckets were probably used by elites in wine service.<ref>{{cite journal |title=Review: Berta Stjernquist, ''Ciste a cordoni (Rippenzisten)'' |last=Jacob-Friesen |first=Gernot |url=https://journals.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/index.php/bjb/article/view/83162 |date=1969 |journal=Bonner Jahrbücher |pages=545–548 |doi=10.11588/bjb.1969.1.83162 |volume=169 }} </ref><ref>{{cite book |first=Fiorenza |last=Bortolami |chapter=Le ciste bronzee a cordoni nel Veneto dell’età del Ferro |title=Nuovi volti della ricerca archeologica, filologica e storica sul mondo antico |volume=II |editor1-first=Vanni |editor1-last=Veronesi |editor2-first=Bruno |editor2-last=Callegher |publisher=EUT Edizioni Università di Trieste |location= Trieste |date=2021 |pages=71–85 |doi=10.13137/978-88-5511-256-7/32259}}</ref>{{rp|71-72}}
