Stroke-ornamented ware is a kind of zig-zag decorated Neolithic pottery found in central and eastern Europe.
The decoration was impressed into the clay rather than incised and the zig-zag lines were formed from individual pits jabbed into the surface. It superseded the earlier Linearbandkeramic style during the early fifth millennium BC and was part of the Danubian II phase. House forms changed from rectangular to ship-shaped.
