The Secondary Roads of Potaissa. Case Study: A new Road Segment from Livadă-Valea Agrișului-Iara (Cluj County)

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of a field research performed west of Potaissa (Turda, Cluj County), started largely in order to verify the existence of a Roman settlement that a local inhabitant has signaled to the specialists of the History Museum in Turda. The identification of the settlement and especially the research of the area in its proximity have led to the identification of a new Roman secondary road and of other Roman settlements and structures, among which one can mention an almost entirely destroyed Roman bridge. Another bridge, near the settlement of Iara, that has been known since the beginning of the 1980s, could finally be put in context and related to the western network of secondary roads of the Roman city of Potaissa.
