Summary (English)

  • The archaeological campaign conducted at Mihai Bravu in year 2000, was a rescue project developed in three locations: 1. “La Moară”. Two main trenches were excavated (100 × 2 m¸ 30 × 2 m). The archaeological material which resulted from the only cultural level found here is, chronologically, mixed; the sherds date to the Aeneolithic – the Gumelniţa culture, the Roman – Byzantine period (the 4th – 6th centuries AD) and to the Early Middle Ages (9th – 10th centuries AD). 2. “Movile”. A single grave was excavated; inside we discovered three graves dated to the Early Bronze Age. Above these we found Early Roman sherds. 3. “Taşlâk”. The pottery uncovered in the main trench (150 × 2.5 m) dates to the Hallstatt and to the Roman periods; the pottery did not occur in a clear stratigraphical context. In the eastern part of the trench we discovered two modern inhumation graves. In the gas installation trench (situated about 15 m N from the archaeological one) a waste pit with a very rich Hallstattian material was found.
