| Sumario: | On the occasion of the rehabilitation works of the Orthodox Church in Gherăeti, several burial graves were accidentally discovered. Subsequently, the archaeological survey conducted in 1991 facilitated the investigation of a number of 64 graves in the La Biserică point. Predominantly individual, more rarely double, the graves contained skeletons of adults and children oriented in a west-east direction. In addition to the skeletal remains discovered in anatomical connection, graves with reburied or disturbed skeletons were also identified. With or without coffins, the pits of burial features were mostly rectangular. The funerary inventory was modest, comprising mainly coins, to which are added a few personal adornments (veil pins, globular buttons, strap). According to the coin, the cemetery was functional during the 16th-19th centuries.
