    By using monomial bases which triangularize the Vandermonde matrix, a trivariate polynomial of degree nine interpolating to data on a tetrahedron is constructed. This polynomial can be used to define a continuously differentiable piecewise function on an arbitrary triangulated domain in \(R^ 3\). An example was given to test the interpolant.
