Summary/Abstract: The excavations on the bronze age cemetery from Cârlomăneşti, county Buzău, are not yet finished. Here are presented the principal observations from the 2008-2009 and 2011-2012. Till now were discovered 68 graves with 91 skeletons, some tombs had been collective. The funerary zone is now on the most part superposed by villagers' houses. In any case the cemetery is a large one and could be related to a corresponding settlement which it's not yet identified in the field. It's easy to observe a remarkably variety concerning the funeral structures which include stone small barrows in and over the tombs and, in the same, time catacomb graves. This catacomb tombs could be put in relations with the Katakombnaja and Mnogovalikovaja eastern cultures. The most part of the skeletons are disposed in scorched positions on the left side. The predominant skeletons orientations are in sector W-SW. The anthropological analyse is not yet finished so we cannot yet make a relations between the sex groups and the positions of the bodies. The ceramic inventory is uniform in majority belonging to the so called „Ic3 stile”, the most frequent pottery types been the askos, kantharos and cups. Some metal adornments show relations with Central Europe, with Periam-Pecica or Aunjetitz cultures. Till now we have only one 14C datation for the Grave no. 24 in the time interval 2030- 1870 BC.
