These analogies indicate the adherence of local elites to a symbolic and heraldic code of identity that was probably elaborated exactly around the monumental center of Grădiștea de Munte. This is perhaps the most important implication of the golden bracelets. At the same time, the discovery of the golden bracelets may be perceived as the first confirmation of some burial practices with possible votive values in the immediate vicinity of the monumental edifices on Grădiștea Hill.","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA.

Scholars of that time were familiarised with the ancient texts and inscriptions. Th e fundamental work of the Académie des In scriptions et Belles-lettres in Paris corroborated with the activity of the German scholars made the epigraphy a special research field. In their research missions abroad, the teams of historians, cartographers, topographers, architects, botanists and geologists, explored many regions. Among those also the regions on the Lower Danube, a very interesting area for the western European states, especially after the War of Crimea (1856), due to its strategic location, the economical and political importance, and its connection to the Black Sea. Th e French missions led by A. Baudry and G. Boissière (in 1865) and E. Desjardins (in 1867) have provided significant documentation work for the Roman and Late-Roman fortifications in the Dobroudja but also for the localisation of several ancient sites, known before only from the written sources (like Istros). This paper presents as a study case the site of Troesmis (Turcoaia, Tulcea County) where the written sources attest the existence of the fortress of the legio V Macedonica, civil settlements, a Roman municipium, Late-Roman and Byzantine fortifications. The French missions from 1865 and 1867 still are the most valuable moments in the research history of ancient Troesmis. The later investigations in the field (1882 – Gr. G. Tocilescu, 1977 – rescue excavations due to modern large building activities etc.) have been for different reasons only short and sporadic. Since 2010 a new research project started to corroborate the information provided by different ancient sources with the still available documentation of the prior research (some archival material being for the fi rst time proper evaluated) and to extend the research by using the newest inter- and pluri-disciplinary methodologies, mainly non-invasive, in order to rescue what can still be saved for the site of Troesmis, one of the most eloquent examples of the trans formations of settlement and fortification structures in the period from the 2nd to the 6th c. AD.","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA. Arhitectură. Restaurare.

The route segments that do not appear on the ancient cartographic sources were reconstructed based on field research that led to the identifi cation of ancient road segments, traces of settlements, stations, as well as on the basis of inscriptions on milestones. These were found in Topolite, Povlijanovo, Devnija, Odessos, and Tlačane. Except for the latter, they fall chronologically in the period between the reign of Gordian III (238-244) and the reign of Tacitus (275-276).

Miklós Bethlen is an exceptional fi gure of late seventeenth-century Transylvanian nobility, active both on the political scene and on the cultural one. He is better known due to the memoirs he has written during his last years spent in prison in Vienna, and published for the fi rst time in the middle of the nineteenth century. His architectural patronage became a landmark for the Transylvanian architectural history. The Bethlen castle in Sânmiclăuş (Alba county) represents an iconic building for his architectural patronage, built from the ground up following his plans and supervision. Nevertheless, his patronage extended to other less known buildings as well. Th is paper aims at identifying the building patronage of Miklós Bethlen on the basis of his memories, but also analysing the architectural context of late seventeenth-century noble residences from Transylvania. His architectural conceptions are re-evaluated as well following the novel observations of Professor Konrad Ottenheym who call attention to the direct relation between the residence from Sânmiclăuş and the architectural theory promoted by Nicolaus Goldmann in Leiden. Moreover, following the analysis of original drawings by Goldmann and the spatial disposition of the residence in Ţopa, the article suggests the hypothesis that Miklós Bethlen has contributed as well to the third building phase of the noble residence from Ţopa (ca. 1675).","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA.
