Summary/Abstract: In the vicus of Călugăreni / Mikháza, a Roman military site on the Eastern Limes of Dacia, excavations are taking place since 2011. Wooden building structures could be identified by postholes and beams beds. Between the buildings, adjacent areas and paths were gravelled. Several pottery and forging slag fragments point towards the processing of clay and metal within the settlement, and recently the probable location of a Roman forge could be recorded, due to forging slag and technical ceramics.
