Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to introduce in the scientific circulation some random finds belonging to the Bronze Age from Trotuş-Tazlău interjluve. The analyse was made based on the archaeological findings from Brătila and Oneşti settlements in the Corhana lui Răujă, Coasta Făgetului and Baraj-Belei archaeological points. Due to the random character of these findings we can't certainly say in which of those archaeological points the in habitancy was more intense or if a fortification system was present. Apart from the pottery specific to Monteoru culture Ic3 and Ic2 phases, artifacts made from clay, stone and bone were discovered. The melting pot found at Baraj-Belei archaeological point states the existence of a bronze-processing Workshop. The presence of Jigodin type ceramic fragments illustrates the merchandise circulation in the Bronze Age rather than just a presence of this community in Oneşti Depression.
