    This article studies the centres of mass and the centres of gravity of triangles in the elliptic plane. The techniques used are those of spherical trigonometry, and the author relies heavily on the sphere model of the elliptic plane (i.e. the double-covering of the projective plane). Some of the propositions may be found in \textit{H. S. M. Coxeter} ``Non- Euklidean Geometry'' (1957; Zbl 0077.139).
