Summary/Abstract: The author aims at the presentation of the Szeklers' attitude to the Dacian and Roman history and to the principle of the Dacian-Roman continuity (in Romania). Important Dacian-Roman occurrences in Szeklers' Land are presented. The author briefly sketches what damages the aggressive and propagandistic history writing had brought on in the appreciation of these two cultures before 1989.
