The important information brought by the research undertaken between 2007 and 2009 can be divided in two major categories. On the one hand, it has provided archaeological evidence of the transformations to the street network which had been partly recorded by building regulations and it has precisely located important inns (commercial buildings called han) and other edifices recorded by cartographic documents drawn at the end of 18th century and during the 19th century. It has also documented detail elements, previously known by written evidence, such as the structure of the wooden street decking (on Smârdan, Lipscani or Gabroveni St.) On the other hand, the archaeological research has provided new information regarding the limits of important urban ensembles (the north side of the enclosure of Curtea Veche – The Old Court, the main residence of the rulers of the country from mid 15th century until the end of 18th). The same research made the reconstruction of street segments decked with wood possible (the south stretch of Smârdan St., the middle segment of Gabroveni St.) or unveiled previously unknown medieval structures (the palisade of the north side of the precinct of the Old Court, the 17th century building on Tonitza St., the 18th century building on Zarafi St. or the cellars of Șerban Vodă Inn) I. Smârdan St. The archaeological excavations have unveiled important evidence to the history of the Centre: streets paved with wood (the medieval decks), a street paved with cobblestone (modern), buildings dating back to the 18th century or to the turn of 19th century, or elements of the sewage system from the end of 19th century. II. Lipscani St. The segment between Calea Victoriei and the National Bank (area of Zlătari Inn) Th e archaeological research, focused mainly on the surface at the intersection of Lipscani St. and Calea Victoriei, unveiled structures of Zlătari Inn which defi ned the south front of the old street, and a series of foundations which indicate fragmentarily the north front of the street, to which another inn, Filipescu, might have belonged. III. Lipscani St. The segment between Carada and Smârdan St. (the area of Greci Inn) The archaeological research resulted in the discovery of structures belonging to Greci Inn, which used to define the south front of old Lipscani St. and the west front of Smârdan St. Structures of Șerban Vodă Inn (the inn of Voievode Șerban, named for Șerban Cantacuzino, who ruled over Walachia between 1678-1688) which used to stand in ","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA.

Data regarding the cemeteries at “Boţocana” are extremely poor. The coins from the collection carry very brief information about the context of their finding. Splitting the graves with coins, in sectors, allowed us to create a chronological hierarchy of the coins, which in turn, led us to believe that we’re dealing with two diff erent cemeteries, instead of one spanning over a long period of time. Thus, coins discovered in the graves from the “La Turn” sector and issued by Louis the Ist, Maria and Sigismund of Luxembourg reveal a burial period between the second half of the 14th century and middle of the 15th century, which could be related to the third church that was built here between 1241 and 1260/1270. Th e second cemetery, located in the “Dealul Bisericii” sector, contains late medieval and pre-modern graves, roughly dated between the 16th and 18th centuries. Despite the long period of circulation of these coins, based on the percentage quantum for each year and based on the issuer, we decided to limit the chronology of the cemetery, to the middle of the 17th century and first half of the 18th century.","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA.

An Early Modern noble residence","authors":"Letiția Cosnean","doi":"10.47950/caieteara.2013.4.09","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.47950/caieteara.2013.4.09","url":null,"abstract":"Building works on the Bolyai noble court (Buia village, county of Sibiu) was carried out in different phases over more than four centuries. Based mainly on the archival and historical sources, specialists have suggested several hypotheses regarding the patronage and the phases of constructions of the noble court. A small fragment of vividly coloured wall painting preserved on the south-eastern side of the polygonal chapel’s chancel indicated the existence of the chapel in the medieval period. This had shaped the general idea that the noble court developed gradually around the existing medieval chapel. Nevertheless, little information is available regarding the architectural configuration of the noble court between the yet unknown founding date of the chapel and the middle of the 17th century. The present article, based mainly on the direct analysis of the ruins, aims at reconsidering the building’s relative chronology and providing a critical evaluation of the monument. Three unpublished architectural surveys found in different archives (i.e. National Institute of Heritage – Bucharest, “Ion Mincu” University of Architecture and Urban Planning – Bucharest, and KÖH Archive – Budapest) proved valuable sources in the hypothetical reconstruction of the monument’s architectural configuration during the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern period (14th - 17th centuries). The study also includes a catalogue of seven limestone blocks incorporated in the castle’s masonry - spolia and of a limestone door frame preserved in situ. The comparison of their dimensions and moulding characteristics indicated further elements of chronological dating, meanwhile allowing several reconstruction hypotheses of doors and windows frames. Moreover, starting from a brief account of the social life of its founders, the study illustrates the relation between elements of social identity and the architectural features of the noble residence.","PeriodicalId":445871,"journal":{"name":"CaieteARA.
