    The author proves identity -- theorems of completely additive functions generalizing results of \textit{I. Kátai} [Colloq. Math. 20, 265--267 (1969; Zbl 0188.34301)] and \textit{M. Amer} [Publ. Math. 38, No. 3--4, 185--188 (1991; Zbl 0738.11001)] \((\Gamma =\mathbb Z[1])\). Let \(\Gamma\) be the union of finitely many lattices in the complex plane (called principal configuration) and \(f\) a completely additive function. Further let \(z_1,z_2,z_3,\dots\) be a sequence of complex numbers such that \(| z_j | \to \infty\) and \(f\) is constant on every disc \(\{z\in \mathbb C:| z-z_j| \leq (2+\xi)\sqrt{| z_j| }\,\}\); then \(f\equiv 0\). A similar results is valid for completely multiplicative functions, which do not vanish any other.
