5 min•12 maj 2026

Om avsnittet

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the little-known Dacian fortress of Cumidava, located near modern-day Râșnov in Transylvania. They discuss its strategic importance during the Dacian Wars, the archaeological discoveries of the 1960s and 1970s, including the famous Cumidava inscription mentioning Decebalus and the Roman procurator. They delve into the fortress's role in the Roman conquest, its destruction by Trajan's legions, and its later use as a Roman garrison. The conversation also touches on the Dacian script debate sparked by the inscription and how Cumidava fits into the broader narrative of Dacian resistance and Romanization. This episode offers a fresh perspective on a specific site that encapsulates the clash between two empires.
