Cercetările lui Fodor András Lugosi la Grădiştea Muncelului

  • Subiect: „The treasures found by the natives at the beginning of the 19th century in the vicinity of Grădiştea Muncelului (today Grădiştea de Munte) drew the attention not only of the authorities, but also of the scholars and antiquity fans who organized field trips and research in the area, particularly towards midcentury, being attracted by the novel character of the vestiges. Doctor Fodor András Lugosi from Hunedoara was the most passionate of them. His works are very little known and much of the information he mentioned is still in manuscript form. Guided mainly by intuition and less by knowledge in that field, Fodor discovered and investigated in the area of the Dacian fortress Sarmizegetusa Regia several constructions still unknown to archeologists and unidentified on the ground. His writings were analyzed by Alexandru Ferenczi in 1921, but they were not correctly related to the real field situation, because of the incipient stage of site research. After Ferenczi, this information has but sporadically been given any attention. Fodor’s manuscript has been gone through by Volker Wollmann, who published for the first time the two valuable drawings it included – the fortress plan and a page with several artifacts. The text herein is meant to approach again the information included in Fodor András’ manuscripts and publications and turn it into account by correlating it with the recent data offered by archeological research. The aim of this endeavor is to restore a most important contribution made by this forgotten researcher, as well as to recover the valuable information related to the site of Grădiştea de Munte, which reflects a conservation stage that was superior to the one of this day. ”
