Summary/Abstract: The present paper focuses on the Roman limes road between the auxiliary forts of Călugăreni / Mikháza and Sărățeni / Sóvárad. Even though, since the early 18th century there has been scarce data concerning a Roman road through the Becheci / Bekecs Hill, the issue needed to be reanalysed. Based on a least cost path analysis and earlier survey data, we managed in February 2021 to identify through field survey the course of the former Roman road.
