Economic Role of the Roman Army in the Province of Lower Moesia (Moesia Inferior) INSTITUTE of EUROPEAN CULTURE ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY in POZNAŃ
Economic role of the Roman army in the province of Lower Moesia (Moesia Inferior) INSTITUTE OF EUROPEAN CULTURE ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY IN POZNAŃ ACTA HUMANISTICA GNESNENSIA VOL. XVI ECONOMIC ROLE OF THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE PROVINCE OF LOWER MOESIA (MOESIA INFERIOR) Michał Duch This books takes a comprehensive look at the Roman army as a factor which prompted substantial changes and economic transformations in the province of Lower Moesia, discussing its impact on the development of particular branches of the economy. The volume comprises five chapters. Chapter One, entitled “Before Lower Moesia: A Political and Economic Outline” consti- tutes an introduction which presents the economic circumstances in the region prior to Roman conquest. In Chapter Two, entitled “Garrison of the Lower Moesia and the Scale of Militarization”, the author estimates the size of the garrison in the province and analyzes the influence that the military presence had on the demography of Lower Moesia. The following chapter – “Monetization” – is concerned with the financial standing of the Roman soldiery and their contri- bution to the monetization of the province. Chapter Four, “Construction”, addresses construction undertakings on which the army embarked and the outcomes it produced, such as urbanization of the province, sustained security and order (as envisaged by the Romans), expansion of the economic market and exploitation of the province’s natural resources. In the final chapter, entitled “Military Logistics and the Local Market”, the narrative focuses on selected aspects of agriculture, crafts and, to a slightly lesser extent, on trade and services. The book demonstrates how the Roman army, seeking to meet its provisioning needs, participated in and contributed to the functioning of these industries. -

Alexandru Madgearu The Province of Scythia and the Avaro-SIavic Invasions (576-626) As like as all the European provinces of the Roman Empire, Scythia suffered many Slavic, Kutrigur and Avar invasions. We should note here that Dobroudja was sometimes bypassed by these invasions, because the roads to Serdica, Philippopolis, Adrianopolis, Thessalonica and Constan tinople did not cross Scythia. The Slavs used also other ways when they attacked the Empire (the Iron Gates’ region, the sector between the mouths of the rivers Vit and lantra, the region of Durostorum)1. The period of barbarian invasions of the VIth Century could be divided in two parts. In the first one, dated in the first three quarters of the century, the invasions were scarce and did not cause major conse quences. In the second one, the attacks became more intensive and they had as a result the fall of the limes and the losing of the Danubian provinces. The second stage began in 574, when Avars gained the first victory over the Byzantine army. (The events occured in the western region of the Danubian limes)2. This moment means the arising of a new well-organized military power, which was able to fight in a long war and to achieve by treaties the military victories. The previous attacks (of the Kutrigurs and Slavs) were only common raids of pillage, not a clash between two military powers. After the beginning of the Avaro-Byzan- tine wars, the situation changed, because even the Slavs that continued 1. G. Cankova-Petkova, Etudes historiques (Sofia), 4, 1968, p. -
Milestones from Dobruja in the Collections of the Museum of National History and Archaeology Constanța
MILESTONES FROM DOBRUJA IN THE COLLECTIONS OF THE MUSEUM OF NATIONAL HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY CONSTANȚA Maria BĂRBULESCU, Livia BUZOIANU, Zaharia COVACEF The pieces we are going to dwell upon in this study have been included rather recently in the patrimony of MINAC, either they have been discovered accidentally in the villages Cheia and Arsa (Constanța county), or they have been found in systematical diggings in Capidava; only one milestone, found in Mangalia, is inlcuded for a longer period into the collection of Constanța museum1. 1. Fragment of a lime milestone (inv. 43454), discovered in Cheia2. Sizes: h.= 0,48 m; d. = 0,25 m, letters height = 6‐7,2 cm (Fig. 1 a‐b). There are preserved partially the last three lines from the text, with letters evidently cut, but less accurate letters. On the first line, the last letter seems to be M, with short median hastae (there is poorly seen the left one in the digging)3. Few of preserved letters on the 1st line allow us to restore the legate’s name, of which we know the end of a cognomen in accusative, NVM, followed by a second cognomen beginning with M; this reading lead us to the following completion of the text: 1 Milestones in MINAC collection, including the present unpublished ones, have been recorded in order to includ them in CIL XVII, the chapter destined to Moesia Inferior; the study has been made in summer 2007, by a team led by prof. dr. Anne Kolb, from Zürich University, to whom we express our gratitude also on this occasion for the photos of the pieces 1 and 2. -

MICHAŁ DUCH, THE INTEGRATION PROCESS OF THE LOWER MOESIAN AREAS STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 ISSN 2082-5951 DOI 10.14746/seg.2017.16.18 Michał Duch (Gniezno) THE INTEGRATION PROCESS OF THE LOWER MOESIAN AREAS Abstract The objective of this article is to provide a short presentation of the integration process of the areas that formed Lower Moesia. The author aims to present select methods implemented by the Romans in order to place the discussed territories under their complete control. The main differences between the individual parts of Lower Moesia have also been indicated in the article, as well as the ways in which they mutually supplemented each other, ultimately composing a cohesive whole. Key words Lower Moesia, administration, civitas, territory, integration, municpium 371 STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 · ROME AND THE PROVINCES Rome1 used force to conquer an area that was part of Lower Moesia, similarly as it did with many other provinces2. This was no easy task as seizing control of the entire Lower Danube region took the Romans almost two centuries and required enormous military resources since the local population mounted fierce resistance. The beginnings of this struggle should be linked to the moment in which Gaius Scribonius Curio’s army arrived at the Danube, whereby a fierce battle ensued that lasted a few years (75-73 BC) against the Dardani and the Moesians (bellum Dardanicum)3. The end should be linked to the moment in which over the course of two war campaigns (AD 101-102; AD 105-106) Trajan ultimately destroyed the Dacian state ruled by Decebalus4. -

MONUMENTELE ŞI SITURILE ARHEOLOGICE DIN DOBROGEA ÎN PREOCUPĂRILE COMISIUNII MONUMENTELOR ISTORICE RALUCA VERUSSI Pământul dintre Dunărea de Jos şi Pontul stâng , mărginit la sud de Deliormanul (Pădurea nebună) ce acoperă dealurile ce preced Munţii Balcani - Dobrogea, înfăţişează o succesiune de strălucite civilizaţii - preistorică, grecească , getică , romană, bizantină , românească şi otomană , sesizabilă cu precădere prin monumente şi situri arheologice. După misiunile de explorare arheologică trimise de îm• păratul Napoleon al III-iea, cercetările au fost reluate în Dobrogea românească de către Grigore Tocilescu împreună cu colaboratori străini . Prin legea din 17 noiembrie 1892 de înfiinţare a Comisiunii Monumentelor Istorice se prevedea ca unul din cei trei membri numiţi să fie directorul Muzeului de Antichităţi din Bucureşti. În 1892, cel ce ocupa această funcţie era tocmai Grigore Tocilescu 1. Astfel, Dobrogea îşi lua locul cuvenit în pre ocupările CMI. Săpăturile arheologice desfăşurate la monu mentul triumfal şi cetatea romană de la Adamclisi, deşi tributare concepţiei vremii, care considera demne de interes în reconstituirea istorică , cu precădere, documentele de natură epigrafică şi artistică , au avut ca rezultat, prin publicarea de către Tocilescu a inscripţiilor descoperite, introducerea în circuitul ştiinţific al vremii a acestui important monument. Alături de activitatea arheologică propriu-zisă, Tocilescu ajutat de colaboratorul său apropiat, Pamfil Polonic, conştient de bogăţia vestigiilor aflate pe cuprinsul Dobrogei, s-a preocupat de identificarea şi cartarea monumentelor şi siturilor arheologice, remarcabil în acest sens rămânând studiul despre valurile de pământ şi piatră , nedepăşit până în prezent ca amploare.

This potential can be used under various forms in the rural area: cultural tourism, historical tourism, religious tourism, ecotourism, fishing tourism or bird-watching tourism, as well as other kinds of rural tourism. By linking these tourism resources and tourism forms, tourism routes can result, which, together with the local customs, traditions and cuisine may contribute to the social and economic development of Dobrudgea’s rural area, through sustainable tourism as an alternative to seasonal seashore tourism. Key words: sustainable tourism, rural area, economic development, Dobrudgea INTRODUCTION The essence of human society sustainable development is given by the present and future management modality of the natural, energy, material and informational resources, in relation to the economic growth objectives, providing for an increasingly better quality of life and environment. One of the main sustainable development challenges is to find ways to encourage the environment- friendly economic activities, to discourage the activities that bring about environment deterioration (Zaman, Gherasim, 2007). -

CÂTEVA DESCOPERIRI VITRICE DIN DOBROGEA ROMANĂ Sever
CÂTEVA DESCOPERIRI VITRICE DIN DOBROGEA ROMANĂ Sever-Petru Boțan, Gabriel Mircea Talmațchi*, Daniela Cristea-Stan** Abstract: This study aims to present a series of glass finds from recent archaeological excavations in several important settlements of Roman Dobroudja-Tropaeum Traiani / Adamclisi, Carsium / Hârșova, Altinum / Oltina and Ulmetum / Pantelimon. Most of these discoveries belong to the Early Byzantine era and fall into the typology of Isings 111 stemmed goblets, used mostly as candles for lighting in early churches. However, we can also mention some earlier vessels, among which we can count the fragment of a carinated bowl made of opaque-red glass paste or two fragments of ribbed bowls from Tropaeum Traiani, as well as other fragments of beakers and cups dating back to the 2nd-3rd centuries AD. Although they do not represent typological rarities, the glass discoveries presented in this study are able to complete the general panorama of Roman and Early Byzantine glass finds in the Pontic Danubian space. Rezumat: Articolul de față prezintă o serie de descoperiri vitrice provenite din săpături recente în mai multe așezări importante ale Dobrogei romane-Tropaeum Traiani / Adamclisi, Carsium / Hârșova, Altinum / Oltina și Ulmetum / Pantelimon. Cele mai multe descoperiri aparțin epocii bizantine timpurii și se încadrează în tipologia cupelor cu picior de tipul Isings 111, folosite drept candele pentru iluminat în lăcașele de cult. Nu lipsesc însă nici câteva fragmente mai timpurii, între care se pot aminti fragmentul de bol carinat din pastă de sticlă de culoare roșie-opac sau două fragmente de boluri cu coaste de la Tropaeum, precum și câteva fragmente de pahare și cupe databile în sec.
