Summary/Abstract: The fortifications and civilian settlements of the limes in Upper Moesia were linked by a road that ran along the right bank of the Danube. They were quite different from each other due to their size and role in the common defense system and they were not entirely connected with the major communication axis. It seems very important here to outline one particular group of castella that served as the major crossing points from the right to the left bank of Danube, such as Lederata (Ram).
