Summary/Abstract: The specifics of the coin circulation in the area of the the Orlovka (Kartal) hillfort on the Lower Danub (Orlovka village, Odessa Region, Ukraine) in the 1st-3rd centuries A.D. were determined by three factors: the military garrison in the Roman castrum on the “Stone Mountain”; the incorporation of the hillfort (possible the ancient Aliobrix) into the Lower Danube Limes and the province of Mesia/Lower Mesia; the direct neighbors with the tribes of East European Barbaricum. The comparison of the available archaeological and numismatic evidence of the 3rd century from the site with data from antique sites of the northern Black Sea Region and from the Roman Danube provinces allows to suggest that during the rule of Severus Alexander the hillfort was attacked by barbarian (probably, late Sarmatian) tribes. The later coin finds belong to the post-Roman period.
