Summary/Abstract: In the present contribution it is insisted upon the funerary inventory of the Tei culture, which is one of the most important manifestations of the Middle and Late Bronze Age from Southern Romania. There are also considerations regarding the different offerings categories, like pottery, items made of burnt clay (adornments) and metal (bronze and gold). As concerns the ceramics, in the burials there were small and medium sized vessels, cups, mugs and bowls, most of them being undecorated. Both the receptacles decorated with the Stichkanaltechnik, as well as the undecorated ones, are pots which could be also found in the settlements, a fact which proves that the funerary pottery was a common one, being not especially created for this purpose.
