Cross-Border Cooperation in the Danube-Lined Romanian/Bulgarian Border-Space ISSN 0354-8724 (hard copy) | ISSN 1820-7138 (online) Cross-Border Cooperation in the Danube-Lined Romanian/Bulgarian Border-Space. Geographical Considerations Săgeată RaduA*, Dumitrescu BiancaA, Damian NicoletaA Received: March 2009 | Revised: May 2010 | Accepted: May 2010 Abstract Since a number of transnational issues have been cropping up, the need was felt for the existence of a unitary sys- tem to tackle them. So, the building of some cross-border co-operation structures both at local level (cross-bor- der zones) and at regional level (Euroregions) appeared as highly necessary and desirable. Their typology depends on the intensity and character of cross-border fluxes, the existence of local convergence cores, and of elements of complementariness and homogeneity between the two frontier spaces. The Danube-lined Romanian-Bulgarian frontier represents an axis of discontinuity between two natural regions, each with its own district traits: the Ro- manian Plain in the north and the Pre-Balkan Mountain in the south. As a result, the limitrophe border zone shows particular social and economic characteristics. Although the Danube River has favoured the emergence of an ur- ban area, yet the respective towns do not form a coherent system, the zone itself being extremely rural as a whole. The Romanian-Bulgarian cross-border zone in the Danubian sector features by a sudden variation in transver- sal fluxes, concentrating on certain directions imposed by the pattern of communication routes and the layout of doublet towns. Most fluxes pass through the Giurgiu-Ruse sector, a strong argument in favour of establishing a Euro-region based on the cross-border cooperation between the two towns.

    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

  • Aux Débuts De L'archéologie Moderne Roumaine: Les Fouilles D'atmageaua
    Aux débuts de l’archéologie moderne roumaine: les fouilles d’Atmageaua Tătărască∗ Radu-Alexandru DRAGOMAN** Abstract: This text is an analysis of the archive resulting from the 1929-1931, 1933 and 1935 archaeological research at Atmageaua Tătărască, southern Dobrudja (today Sokol, in Bulgaria). The excavations at Atmageaua Tătărască are relevant for the history of Romanian archeology because they correspond to the time of formation and institutionalization of a scientific approach considered to be “modern” and of a research philosophy that would dominate the archaeological practice ever since. The text seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the beginnings of the discipline and also advocates for the redefinition of the current archaeological practice. Rezumat: Textul reprezintă o analiză a arhivei rezultate în urma cercetărilor arheologice din 1929-1931, 1933 şi 1935 de la Atmageaua Tătărască, sudul Dobrogei (astăzi Sokol, în Bulgaria). Săpăturile de la Atmageaua Tătărască sunt relevante pentru istoria arheologiei românești, deoarece corespund perioadei de formare şi instituţionalizare a unei demers ştiinţific considerat a fi „modern” şi a unei filosofii de cercetare ce va domina practica arheologică de atunci încolo. Textul își propune să contribuie la o mai bună înțelegere a începuturilor disciplinei și, totodată, pledează pentru redefinirea practicii arheologice din prezent.

  • The Evolution of Civil and Military Habitat in the Period Latène on the Territory of Romania
    Iulian BOLDEA, Cornel Sigmirean (Editors), DEBATING GLOBALIZATION. Identity, Nation and Dialogue Section: History, Political Sciences, International Relations THE EVOLUTION OF CIVIL AND MILITARY HABITAT IN THE PERIOD LATÈNE ON THE TERRITORY OF ROMANIA Ioana Olaru PhD, “George Enescu” National University of Arts, Iaşi Abstract:In this paper, we will focus on the second period of the Iron Age, Latène (in fact, only its first two phases, the one of formation and spreading, after which the inhabitants of these territories will enter Antiquity, for Prehistory has ended), presented from the point of view of its settlements, and also of the civil and military constructions. The settlements and tenements of the entire Iron Age reflect the continuity of migrations, through limited, through the sedentarization and fortification of many of the settlements, which became true centres of unions of tribes. The urbanization process started in Hallstatt will continue in Latène, in the context of development of tribal aristocracy, as a result of unions of tribes that became more and more stable. Becoming bigger and bigger, the population needed bigger settlements, fortified, whose evolution will be monitored, from the davae of the Dacians from the forming period, to the quasi-urban settlements from the second period, the one of spreading during the period Latène, in the great fortresses built now (that will continue their development during the time of Burebista). The buildings become more and more complex, there are three types of described plans: rectangular, apse like, circular, and also the tower-tenements.

  • Zaravetz Culture
    THE LADY IN THE OVEN – Mediolana and the Zaravetz Culture Mac Congail The most extraordinary ancient „burial‟ to be discovered in recent years is that of a woman found in a pottery kiln near the Celtic settlement of Ablana (by the village of Krivina, Rousse region) on the Bulgarian Danube. This burial is remarkable for a number of reasons, foremost among them its situation – in a large pottery kiln – symbolic of the thriving barbarian culture which inhabited this region in the Late Iron Age, and also for the nature of the burial – archaeological testimony to the brutal fashion in which this culture was destroyed. ARCHAEOLOGICAL CONTEXT MEDIOLANA Recent discoveries of Celtic archaeological sites and material from the Rousse area (and northeastern Bulgaria in general) have confirmed previous linguistic and numismatic evidence that this area was one of the key Celtic economic and political centers in late Iron Age Thrace. From an economic perspective, the most significant Celtic center on this stretch of the Danube was situated at Mediolana (modern Pirgovo, Rousse region) (see ‘Celtic Settlements in n. Bulgaria’ article). Mediolana was strategically situated near the confluence of the Danube and the Lom river, the latter connecting Mediolana with Celtic settlements in the interior such as Abritu (Razgrad). A vast amount of Celtic archaeological and numismatic material has been discovered in the vicinity of Pirgovo/Mediolana over the past century, including separate hoards of Celtic coins found in 1910, 1938, 1979, and 2008 around the village (see Numismatics section, especially ‘Little Metal Men’ article, with relevant lit.), clearly indicating that Mediolana/Pirgovo was a key Celtic economic and coin production center in the pre- Roman period.
