Summary/Abstract: Dacian discoveries belonging to Roman times are the most important and largest part of the site. From these complexes was recovered a variety of specific Dacian archaeological material. Knowledge at the time prove the fact we may have to do with the presence of native settlements, created even with people brought from the mountains after the second war between Romans and Dacians. Perhaps there was an older part of the village, of the S of the road, which will undergo an expansion and further development to N. On Mures side early medieval settlement site spans both the left and to the right of the road, continuing on private property. On the same part of the river I found parts of a fortification with palisade. Was surprised only a possible entry and groove wood bet does not help us much in dating, but it would be conceivable that Bronze pieces come from here, but could be even an enclosure even for a Hallstatt settlement, too. Were excavating graves dating from Roman and early medieval periods.
