Summary/Abstract: With the contribution of the new mass media, cartographic information is more accessible now. Therefore we can make some corrections and give additional details regarding urban development on the territory of Dobrudja. The article presents information from several maps, together with the results of archaeological research at the ancient city of Callatis (Mangalia), indicating that Pangala not only isn’t situated on the same location as Mangalia, but also lies further south, near 2 Mai village or on the Bulgarian seashore.
