Sistemul defensiv al fortificaţiilor traco-getice (particularităţi constructive şi principii de apărare)
The defensive system of the Thraco-Getae fortifications (the constructive features and principle of the defense)

Summary/Abstract: Currently, around 130 Thraco-Getae fortifications are known in the East Carpathian area (end of VIIth century – IIIrd century BC.). A comprehensive analysis of their defensive system allows certain conclusions to be drawn regarding the relationship between structural features, additional elements and the principles of defense of the structures. Each of the components had its strict and precise role in the conception of the site defense. The rampart of oval-rounded shape in plan, the internal organization of the enclosure, the complementary elements of the defensive line (tower, bastion, palisade), the arrangement of the entrance - all depended on the direction of the enemy's attacks, changing according to the needs of the time – the interdependence between tactics and strategy of attack and defense.
