Unguentaria and Bottles* Liliana Daniela Mateescu-Suciu Abstract: In time, a significant quantity of glass fragments (coming from containers, jewellery or raw glass) was found, during excavations in Sarmizegetusa Regia. This paper aims to publish glass containers:unguentaria and bottles. Most of the artefacts are imports coming from the Roman world, but a local production cannot be overruled, especially taking into account the already known evidence of the activity of a workshop. Both types of containers were used in Sarmizegetusa Regia, as they were elsewhere, for transporting and keeping cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and beverages. Some of these artefacts could have been used by the roman soldiers garrisoned in Sarmizegetusa after the conquest but, some others certainly belonged to the pre‑roman Dacian inhabitants, since they were found within structures (dwellings and workshops) dating back to the 1st c. A.D. and the beginning of the next one. Keywords: Sarmizegetusa Regia, glass, unguentaria, bottles, the Dacians, La Tène. The number and diversity of glass items from the area of the Dacian fortifications and settlements from the Orăștie Mountainsare remarkable, especially compared to the discoveries made in the rest of Dacia. The first statisticon the topic, performed on items known until 1974, showed that 47.7% of all glass artifacts focused in the above mentioned area1. Subsequent archaeological researches carried out either in Grădiştea de Munte – Sarmizegetusa Regia or on the other sites around it have led to the significant increase of their number. Thus, specialists currently are taking into account an intense commerce with such artefacts in the area of the capital of the Dacian Kingdom, but also of the possible local production of certain glass containers or objects. The presence of a glass production workshop in Sarmizegetusa Regia is almost certain, attested by large quantities of raw glass, mainly greenish yellow in color, and by a great number of colored glass flakes (red, green, black, blue etc.)resulted from the process of producing glass objects. One can also add the discovery of a long iron pipe (89 cm) used for glass blowing and of a fragment from a clay container (crucible) that still preserves a 1–1.5 cm‑thick glass crust, on terrace VIII2. According to these data, besides finished goods brought from the Roman world, raw glass was also imported into the Dacian milieu, at least in the second half of the first century A.D., that local artisans transformed locally into various objects through blowing3 or pressing. The main categories of glass artifacts frequently discovered in Sarmizegetusa Regiaare raw glass lumps, pots, jewelry items (beads) and construction materials (window panes). The category of glass tableware from the site under discussion includes bottles, unguentaria, cups, glasses, tureens and bowls of various sizes. If glass items used part of tableware sets (glasses, bowls, cups etc.) are most often fragmentarily preserved, glass containers mainly used for the transportation and storage of liquid or semi‑liquid products (bottles and unguentaria) have been preserved much better. The artefacts are often entirely preserved or can be completed and this might suggest that they were manipulated * English translation: Ana M. Gruia. The current research is financed by the project “Minerva – Cooperare pentru car‑ iera de elită în cercetarea doctorală şi postdoctorală”, contract no: Posdru/159/1.5/S/137832, project co‑financed from European Social Fund (FSE) through Sectoral Operational Programme Human Resources Development 2007–2013.

Gaciu (drawing). 1 Glodariu 1974, 73–76. 2 Iaroslavschi 1981, 169–171. 3 Glass blowing technique, developed during the first century B.C., revolutionized the production of glass in the entire ancient world. Until then glass mold casting was a complicated procedure and knowledge required for glass production was complex, after the invention of glass blowing things became simpler and glass production craft experienced an unprecedented development. ZIRIDAVA, STUDIA ARCHAEOLOGICA, 31, p. 137–152 138 ◆ Liliana Daniela Mateescu‑Suciu occasionally, not daily, and the containers were thus preserved and used with greater precaution than common tableware. The present paper aims at presenting two types of containers: unguentaria and bottles. Unguentaria are among the first items produced in the Roman world through glass blowing4. They are also the most wide spread shapes of containers, discovered throughout the Roman Empire starting with the first century A.D. and until the fifth century A.D. or even later5. Sometimes called balsamariior lacrimarii, they were most likely used for the transportation and storage of various prod‑ ucts, most often liquid ones. Starting from the diversity of unguentaria types, specialists have sug‑ gested several typologies over time6. I shall not insist on them here, but note that for the present study I have mainly used the typologies published by C. Isings7, I. Lazar8 and Biaggio Simona9. The following entire or fragmentary unguentaria are known so far from Sarmizegetusa Regia: 1. Unguentarium – National Museum of Transylvanian History, Cluj‑Napoca, Inv. VD 3799, Fig. 1/1, Fig. 6/1. Findspot: Grădiştea de Munte – Sarmizegetusa Regia, Platoul Cetăţii (terrace no. I – construction level). Description: Thin glass paste with a slight greenish hue and numerous air bubbles in the composition, including a large one in the area of the base. The rim is flat, rounded towards the outside and asymmetrical (one side higher, the other lower). The neck is tall and thin and the body (also asymmetrical) is slightly disproportionate. The proportion between neck and body is 1:3. The base is almost flat, with a slight concavity. Dimensions: h. 9.2 cm; d. rim 2.1 cm; d. neck 1.1–1.3 cm; d. maximum 3.4cm.

    CASTELUL DE LA CAPUT STENARUM ŞI COHORS I FLAVIA COMMAGENORUM Cristian SCHUSTER* Fortificaţia de la Boiţa/Caput Stenarum Înainte de a părăsi Transilvania, Oltul face un unghi de aproape 90 de grade, pornind apoi spre sud, prin Carpaţii Meridionali, devenind ulterior „graniţa” dintre Oltenia şi Muntenia. Chiar în dreptul respectivului cot, pe malul drept al râului, investigaţiile arheologice au permis descoperirea resturilor unei fortificaţii romane. Acestea, aflate în punctul cunoscut sub denumirea În Rude (fig. 1), se găsesc astăzi pe teritoriul satului Boiţa (oraşul Tălmaciu, judeţul Sibiu)1. Aşa cum se ştie, cei mai mulţi dintre specialişti consideră că în acest sat trebuie localizat ceea ce Tabula Peutingeriana indică a fi Caput Stenarum2. Prezenţa urmelor romane a fost semnalată încă de la sfârşitul veacului al XIX-lea - începutul celui următor3. Primele cercetări arheologice s-au derulat în 19574, fiind continuate în 19585, 19736, 19797 şi, în cadrul practicii arheologice a studenţilor de la Facultatea de Filologie-Istorie din Sibiu, în vara anului 19818. Fortificaţiei, prin dimensiunile sale reduse – „de 46 x 47 m, fiind, deci, aproape pătrată”9, i se potriveşte mai degrabă termenul de castellum decât cel de castrum. Cu privire la momentul ridicării fortificaţiei din piatră, dar şi a „termelor cu palestrele, tabulariului vămii şi construcţiile cu caracter gospodăresc” s-a emis ipoteza că ele au fost realizate „după anii 167-169 e.n., când s-a operat reorganizarea administrativă şi militară de către Marcus Aurelius”10.

  • The Bronze Age Fortifications in Munar “Wolfsberg”, Arad County
    ANALECTA ARCHAEOLOGICA RESSOVIENSIA VOLUME 12 RZESZÓW 2017 DOI: 10.15584/anarres.2017.12.6 Victor Sava*, Florin Gogâltan** The Bronze Age Fortifications in Munar “Wolfsberg”, Arad County. The 2014 and 2017 Archaeological Researches ABSTRACT Sava V., Gogâltan F. 2017. The Bronze Age Fortifications in Munar “Wolfsberg”, Arad County. The 2014 and 2017 Archaeological Researches. Analecta Archaeologica Ressoviensia 12, 75–100 In spite that the Bronze Age site Munar “Wolfsberg” has been depicted on the Josephine topographic survey (late 18th century), the first scientific data focusing on this site occurs at the beginning of the 20th century. As “Wolfsberg” did not have the dimensions of the nearby prehistoric fortifications at Sântana and Corneşti, the site was not targeted by archaeological investigations and it has only been occasionally mentioned in the secondary literature so far. During the year 2014 a team of researchers have started the investigations with the site’s topographic survey, followed by a systematic ground survey, geophysical measurements, as well as aerial photographs. Three years later, a small test trench was excavated in order to attempt dating the Middle Bronze Age tell in terms of the absolute chronology. Key words: Lower Mureş Basin, Munar, Bronze Age, tell, fortifications Received: 11.09.2017; Revised: 28.11.2017; Accepted: 02.12.2017 Introduction Until recently, the lack of systematic excavations on prehistoric objectives in the Lower Mureş Basin has distorted historical knowledge. In spite that towards the end of the 19th century there were several attempts to study important sites such as Pecica “Şanţul Mare” (Dömötör 1901; Dömötör 1902; Roska 1912) and Periam “Movila Şanului” (Roska 1911; Roska 1913; Roska 1914; Roska 1923), investigation of prehistoric eras was not a research goal in itself.

    300 i NOMADS AND NATIVES BEYOND THE DANUBE AND THE BLACK SEA: 700–900 CE ii BEYOND MEDIEVAL EUROPE Beyond Medieval Europe publishes monographs and edited volumes that evoke medieval Europe’s geographic, cultural, and religious diversity, while highlighting the interconnectivity of the entire region, understood in the broadest sense—from Dublin to Constantinople, Novgorod to Toledo. The indi- viduals who inhabited this expansive territory built cities, cultures, kingdoms, and religions that impacted their locality and the world around them in mani- fold ways. The series is particularly keen to include studies on traditionally underrepresented subjects in Anglophone scholarship (such as medieval eastern Europe) and to consider submissions from scholars not natively writing in English in an effort to increase the diversity of Anglophone publishing on the greater medieval European world.

  • 165 Years of Roman Rule on the Left Bank of the Danube. at The
    92 Chapter III PROVINCIA DACIA AUGUSTI: 165 years of Roman rule on the left bank of the Danube. At the beginning of the 2nd century, in the Spring of 101AD, Roman Forces marched against the Kingdom of Decebal. We already know what the Roman's rationale was for starting this war and we also know that the real reason was likely to have been the personal ambition of the first Provincial Emperor, Trajan (he was born in Hispania a man of Macedonian background among Greeks). The Roman armies marched against a client-state of Rome, which was a subordinate ally of Rome. Decebal did not want to wage war against Rome and his recurring peace offers confirm this. It is unlikely that Trajan would only have decided on the total conquest of the Dacian Kingdom after he waged his first campaign in 101-102. After this, Roman garrisons were established in the Province - their ongoing presence is reflected by the Latin names of towns (as recorded by Ptolemy). At Dobreta they begin to build the stone bridge which will span the Danube. It was built in accordance with plans made by Apollodorus of Damascus to promote continuous traffic - it was an accomplishment unmatched - even by Rome. This vast project portends that Trajan began the expedition against Dacia in 101 with the intention of incorporating the Kingdom into the Roman Empire. The Emperor, who founded a city (Nicopolis) to commemorate his victory over Dacia, has embarked on this campaign not only for reasons of personal ambition. The 93 economic situation of the Empire was dismal at the beginning of Trajan's reign; by the end of the second Dacian War it has vastly improved.

ARHITECTURĂ ELEMENTS OF SPECIFICITY REGARDING THE TECHNICAL STATE OF HISTORICAL CONSTRUCTIONS WITH DEFENSE ROLE BY ANDREI-VICTOR ANDREI* and LIVIA INGRID DIACONU Technical University “Gh. Asachi” of Iasi, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Building Services, Received: May 17, 2019 Accepted for publication: June 27, 2019 Abstract. Historical defensive construction is a term that defines a construction designed to provide protection, capable of serving military action and having implications for local, national and universal history, culture and civilization. The construction of the fortifications, their type and strategic positioning required a special architecture, special siege weapons, the choice and adoption of a strategy and tactics appropriate for conquest or defense. For a proper assessment of the technical state of a historic building with a defense role, particular attention should be paid to specific architectural elements such as: defense walls built of earth or stone, defense towers that can have shapes, ramparts, firing holes, guard roads, water supply, cellars, the reserve of building materials, made up for the reconstruction of the enemy's destruction, not least, these elements with a strategic, technical and tactical role are added to the living quarters, the care of the wounded, the preparation of the food and the rest. Keywords: historical defensive construction; fortifications; technical state; degradation, stone. *Corresponding author: e-mail: [email protected] 102 Andrei-Victor Andrei and Livia Ingrid Diaconu 1. Introduction In particular, in the case of historical constructions, knowledge and assessment of constructive features is an important source of information for establishing the course of the rehabilitation.

  • THE SUCIDAVA TYPE of BUCKLES and the RELATIONS BETWEEN the LATE ROMAN EMPIRE and the BARBARIANS in the 6Th CENTURY
    THE SUCIDAVA TYPE OF BUCKLES AND THE RELATIONS BETWEEN THE LATE ROMAN EMPIRE AND THE BARBARIANS IN THE 6th CENTURY , by ALEXANDRU MADGEARU Joachim Wemer gave the name of this type of buckles because several pieces have been found at Celei- Sucidava when he published its paper (in 1955)1 . These buckles have a sheld-shaped plate and are adomed by pierced work with cruciform or crescent motifs or with a human stylized face. Joachim Wemer established their dating in second half of the 6th century. Dezso Csallâny wrote, few years after, a study on these buckles, focused especially on the pieces with human face2 . The number of buckles increased very much during the last three decades. Dan Gh. Teodor 3 and Syna Uenze 4 made two typologies in 1991 and 1992. In 1992 Valentin Varsik also published a study about several types of buckles including Sucidava, but he did not proposed a typology3. In the same year the buckles found in the Lower Danubian area were put together into a repertory by Uwe Fiedler 6. The typologies drawn up by S. Uenze and Dan Gh. Teodor are very important for the study of these objects, but we consider possibie a more accurate classification. We remind here that S. Uenze classified the Sucidava buckles into five types: a) - with a simple cruciform decor; , ■ , b) - a cross with all the arms rounded; • c) - a cross with the down arm rounded; d) - with tangent circles; e) - with a human stylized face.
