Poduri is a commune in Bacău County, Western Moldavia, Romania. It is composed of seven villages: Bucșești, Cernu, Cornet, Negreni, Poduri, Prohozești, and Valea Șoșii.

The Poduri archeological site of the late Neolithic Cucuteni-Trypillian culture is significant due to its thirteen habitation levels that were constructed on top of each other over many years.[2]

Geography

Poduri sits in the central-western part of the county, on the right bank of the Tazlăul Sărat river. It lies around 4 km (2.5 mi) southeast of the nearest town, Moinești. It is crossed by county road DJ117, which links west of Moinești (where it ends in DN2G [ro]) and south of Berzunți and Livezi (where it ends in DN11 [ro]).[3]
