A sanctuary of Silvanus in the rural territory of Napoca
2019 •
Viorica Rusu-Bolindet
The A3 motorway (Brașov – Tg. Mureș – Oradea) archaeological diagnosis, from 2016, has revealed an important number of unknown archaeological sites in the rural area north of Cluj‑Napoca. Out of these, one of the most complex was site no. 9, excavated in the summer of 2017. Remains of at least three historical ages have been discovered (Bronze, Roman and Early Migration), some of the archaeological features giving us remarkable results. Out of these, the most relevant, datable in the Roman times, were a sanctuary, an altar dedicated to Silvanus, bearing an unusual attribute and other strucures apparently related to the presumed cultic place.

The Fort at Râșnov (Cumidava) and the Cohors Vindelicorum
2018 •
Felix Marcu
The new research has revealed the existence at Râșnov of several forts and at least three of them partially overlap. It is clear, however, that neither the enclosures, nor the buildings are perfectly superimposed. The buildings we know belong to the final enclosure, the one with stone wall. The internal planning of the fort at Râșnov is, in this last phase, partially anomalous. Even so, there is one fort which resembles very much the fort at Râșnov, located at a great distance from the latter, in Germania Superior. Moreover, archaeological discoveries indicate that the same troop has been built both fortifications.

Oinophora reflected in the production of Geto-Dacian pottery workshops during the 1st century AD
mariana-cristina popescu
The form and stylistic details of some vessels discovered in Brad and Răcătău settlements dated in 1st century BC – 1st century AD, known in Romanian archaeological literature as ritual vessels with zoomorphic protomes or parallelepipedic vessels with zoomorphic protomes, have none analogies in the indigenous repertory of vessels. The Hellenistic plastic vessels or, more specific, ram-shaped Knidian reliefs have been identified as source of inspiration. Another vessel discovered in Răcătău, known as the ritual barrel-shaped vessel or the rider-shaped vessel, is also suspected to have Hellenistic models as source of inspiration. The research of Hellenistic and Roman pottery that circulated north of the Danube during the period between the 2nd century BC and the beginning of the 2nd century AD allows me to make certain observations on the presence of oinophora on Geto-Dacian sites and on their possible impact on local production.

Guarding the Eagle. Soldier membership in the First Cohort of the legion in a revisited inscription from Potaissa
2018 •
George Cupcea
The reading of the seventh line of the inscription on a funerary monument from Potaissa (CIL III 908) has not been cleared up to this moment. Taking into account the changes in the designation process of the legionary cohorts and centuriae in the 3rd century AD, we propose here a new reading of the abbreviated text. It seems therefore that the soldier, who set the funerary stone for his father and uncle, had served in the first cohort of the legion in the centuria headed by the primus pilus.

A new inscription discovered in the Apulum legionary fortress
2018 •
Cristian Florescu
newly discovered inscription during the rescue excavations within the fortress of the XIII Gemina legion at Apulum is published here. The marble slab was probably set by the members of a religious collegium (or of a collegium veteranorum?) that contributed everyone with one hundred denarii to build something inside the fortress during the Severan period. Two of the contributors were former soldiers of the legion, while the third was somehow connected with the collegium fabrum of the municipium Septimium Apulense.

Forum provinciae in Sarmizegetusa
2018 •
Ádám Szabó
L. F. Marsigli represented three archaeological structures on the map of Colonia Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa, made in 1699 and published in 1726 – the city walls, the amphitheatre and a rectangular, double-walled building which encloses an empty space, and which has a square-shaped niche on one side (Pl. I/2). The map, compared in scale to the results of archaeological excavations and geophysical surveys shows an exact match with the currently known groundplan of the city wall, its northeastern corner and the amphitheatre. The third building may be identified as the centre of the provincial assembly (concilium provinciae)1 and the provincial imperial cult, namely the forum provinciae, that was situated within the territory of the Area sacra (Pl. I/1; Pl. II), approximately 20 metres to the northwest from the location given by Marsigli. The two textual fragments previously found in the area also support the assessment of the structure of forum provinciae. The dislocation of the third...
