Proiectile din piatră şi lut descoperite în castrele romane de la Varadia, judeţul Caraş-Severin

  • Subiect: „The archeological investigations in the two Roman fortifications located within the precincts of the village of Vărădia lead to an important number of stone and burnt clay missiles discovering. The stone missiles were found in the padding of the defensive ditch of the earth camp on the Chilii Hill. Strategically placed since the first war with the Dacians, in 101–102 AD, at over 170 m high, that Roman camp controlled both the whole valley of the Caraş River along the erosive tectonic depression of Oraviţa in the shape of a gulf, and the approaches toward and from Anina, Semenic, Dognecea, and Locva Mountains and the Danube too. The presence of those missiles in the defensive gorge, as some of them show traces of a second burning, might be tied to the camp abandoning through setting it on fire at the moment the stone Roman camp at Pustă-Rovină was set already in work, during the post Trajan era. The clay missiles we have found in the Roman camp at Pustă-Rovină might be generically classified according to the three types Völling proposed: round, biconical and ellipsoidal in shape.”
