Weierstrass frequently stated the following in his lectures at Berlin: Eve\-ry system of \(n\) (independent) functions in \(n\) variables which admits an addition theorem is an algebraic combination of \(n\) abelian (or degenerate) functions with the same periods. But his proof was never published. The purpose of this paper is to deal explicitly with the statement of Weierstrass and to give a complex analytic proof. The main result of the paper is the following theorem: Let \(K\subset\mathfrak M(\mathbb C^n)\) be a non-degenerate algebraic function field of \(n\) variables over \(\mathbb C\) which admits an algebraic addition theorem. Then \(K\) is considered as a subfield of \(\mathbb C(z_1, \dots,z_p,w_1,\dots, w_q,g_0,\dots, g_r)\), where \(z_1,\dots,z_p\) are coordinate functions of \(\mathbb C^p\), \(w_1,\dots ,w_q\) are those of \((\mathbb C^\ast)^q\) and \(g_0,\dots ,g_r\) are generators of an abelian function field of dimension \(r\), \(p + q +r = n\).
