Ladislau, Căpâlnaş, Făget,Ilidia, Şoşdea, Satchinez, Socolari, Sviniţa, Kovin, Vladimirescu, Cladova, Turnu Ruieni, Bulci, Bocşa, Jdioara,and Berzovia). Unfortunately, the items found during archaeological excavations were only published for fewfortifications (Caraşova, Duplijaja, Cladova, Vladimirescu, Vršac, Sf. Ladislau, Sviniţa, Jdioara, and Făget).Only a small number of dress items was discovered, consisting of buckles, appliqués and clouts. Withoutexception, the dress items, dated to the 13th–17th centuries, were found in fortifications, not in graves.
