Prezența Hoardei de Aur la gurile Dunării (sec. XIII-XIV). Argumentul arheologic
Presence of the Golden Horde at the mouth of the Danube (XIII-XIV centuries). The archaeological argument

Summary/Abstract: The extensive process of installing and controlling the region at the mouth of the Danube by the Golden Horde is a topic that has not been dealt with in accordance to its importance. Archaeological researches provide important data and represent the starting point for understanding the vast complex of the political events and the socio-economic evolution of the area from the mouth of the Danube in the 13th and 14th centuries. In this study, we approach the ceramic materials attributed to the Golden Horde, an approach based on the observations of the archaeological material in northern Dobrogea and on a single discovery in the south of the province. The study of the ceramics attributed to the Golden Horde is at the beginning. The archaeological researches from Tulcea, Tichileşti, Enisala-Cetate, Enisala-Palanca, Nufăru, Isaccea, Isaccea-Noviodunum and Păcuiul lui Soare, the random discoveries from Jurilovca, Slava Rusă and Babadag revealed red-yellowish or grey ceramic fragments, decorated with a wheel, ceramics worked in patterns or enamelled, typical of the material culture of the Golden Horde in the 13th and 14th centuries.
