Contribuţii la cronologia davae-lor dacice de pe Valea Siretului (II)
Contributions to the Chronology of the Dacian Davae on the Siret Valley

Summary/Abstract: This paper represents the second part of a larger study focusing on the three major Dacian settlements on the Siret Valley, Romania: Brad, Poiana and Răcătău. Alongside stratigraphy, the study of the closed complexes reveals valuable data regarding the chronological and chorological development of the sites mentioned above. Therefore only the complexes in which artifacts with high chronological potential were discovered (coins, bronze ware, glass vessels and jewelry) took place in this selection. The four categories of artifacts mentioned above were discussed as well. Thus, it seems that the three davae had a similar chronology: they were fortified at the end of the 1st century BC; the defensive structures stopped to be used around the middle of the 1st century AD; the settlements seemed to be abandoned at the beginning of the 2nd century AD.
