Summary/Abstract: The article presents Hellenistic and Roman lamps and those locally produced discovered in three of the largest Geto-Dacian settlements researched until now – Poiana, Răcătău (both in County Bacău) and Popeşti (County Giurgiu). In this context, I attempted to follow the reception of these products in the indigenous milieu, in the conditions in which under the impact of Hellenistic and Roman products, local workshops from these three settlements introduced numerous innovations and developed their own production of pottery influenced by Hellenistic and Roman models.
