We have measured the AC susceptibility response in field-cooling conditions of (Cu,C)Ba2Ca2Cu3Oy with aligned crystallites. In a certain but large range of the applied DC magnetic field, the out-of-phase susceptibility has two dissipation peaks. Due to the characteristics of the sample, the shape of the second peak and its position's field-dependence, we ruled out the possibility that the anomalous second dissipation peak could be related to intergrain dissipation. Because this multilayered cuprate is known to be a two-gap superconductor, we believe that our results are an experimental indication of a two-component vortex matter in high-critical temperature superconductors.
