An ideal $I$ of a local Gorenstein ring $(R, \mathfrak m)$ is called cohomologically complete intersection whenever $H^i_I(R) = 0$ for all $i \not= \height I.$ Here $H^i_I(R), i \in \mathbb Z,$ denotes the local cohomology of $R$ with respect to $I.$ For instance, a set-theoretic complete intersection is a cohomologically complete intersection. Here we study cohomologically complete intersections from various homological points of view, in particular in terms of their Bass numbers of $H^c_I(R), c = \height I.$ As a main result it is shown that the vanishing $H^i_I(R) = 0$ for all $i \not= c$ is completely encoded in homological properties of $H^c_I(R),$ in particular in its Bass numbers.
