Abstract
The author tries to define the main characteristics of busta found in Moesia Inferior. Grave goods are separately discussed for each cemetery. The chronology of the busta from Moesia Inferior covers the first three centuries AD (climax in the 2nd century AD), with a unique survival of this funerary ritual, in the 4th century AD. At this moment of the research, the arguments are in favor of the hypothesis that in Moesia Inferior, busta represent a burial custom imported from the Roman world, but it is premature to formulate an answer about the region where busta-cremation type came from.
