A mean of a sequence π = (x1, x2, …, xk) of elements of a finite metric space (X, d) is an element x for which is minimum. The function Mean whose domain is the set of all finite sequences on X and is defined by Mean (π) = {x|x is a mean of π} is called the mean function on X. In this note, the mean function on finite trees is characterized axiomatically.
