Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- The 2010 archaeological excavations at “Ciofliceni – East of the village” covered an area of 9,757 sqm., lying on a higher plateau, ...with mild slopes, lowering towards the Orzarului Valley to the East and the Snagov Lake to the North. The recovered archaeological material consisted of pottery, flint and stone artifacts. The recorded archaeological complexes belong to the Bronze Age (two dwellings, one kiln, 19 garbage pits, pottery fragments, faunal remains, flint artifacts) and the 6th – 7th centuries AD ( two dwellings, two kilns, two garbage pits, pottery fragments, faunal remains). Some of the complexes (six pits and a kiln), lacking any archaeological material, could not be dated.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Some brick structures were identified during the archaeological excavation in Bucharest, Pasajul Francez Street. Most of them are ...concentrated in the north part of the street, next to the cross with Gabroveni Street. Here we found remains from four buildings, one over another, an interesting proof of building dynamic in this area of the former princely court. One structure, found in the south part of the street, was, according to D.V. Rosetti, probably one of the buildings from the princely court ensemble. Tree inhumation graves were found too. All have West (skull) – East orientation. Only one (M. 1) was found almost entire, but with no funerary goods, just a bronze hook. We can date these graves, based on stratigraphy, to the 18th – 19th centuries.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Archaeological excavation of Gabroveni Street, in the old centre of Bucharest, revealed different stages of evolution of this ...important street going along the north part of the princely court in Bucharest. From an epoch when the Gabroveni street was, probably, just a road beside the enclosure of the princely court dated four sunken buildings, severely damaged by later interferences, each having a fire place built on bricks. On all south part of Gabroveni Street we found remains of the wooden fortification of the princely court. It is a structure made from big logs fixed in a trench, mentioned by foreign travelers in the 16th century. Later, a brick wall was built to protect the princely court. This wall generally follows the alignment of the wooden fortification, and in some area even cover it. It suffers a major restoration during the reign of Constantine Brâncovan. After the princely court was partitioned and sold, new buildings appeared which reused the wall of the former princely court. In almost all of the excavated surfaces we met remains of the wooden structure that cover the street in 18th and 19th century. An extraordinarily well preserved area of this “wooden street” and of the enclosure wall of the princely court was proposed for conservation.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Lipscani Street (Historic Centre) Rescue archaeological excavations on the Nos. 32-34 Lipscani St. brought to light the remains of ...17th century wooden habitations as well as walls of various buildings dating to the 17th – 19th centuries, a medieval water pipe, several archaeological complexes with pottery fragments and coins from the 17th – 19th centuries. The results obtained during the 2010 excavations on Lipscani Street complete those of the 2008 excavations, improving our knowledge on the urban structure of medieval Bucharest. In 2010 we made archaeological investigations of the building wrongly called “Gabroveni Inn”, which established that there were dwellings in that place, with deeper floors, dating to the beginnings of urban life in Bucharest. In the 18th century, on this place there was a building with commercial role, from which it was possible to investigate only two caves, and another part of the same building, with a single cave. The actual building was erected between 1847 and 1852.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Bara Lucreția estate The plot of land in question mostly consists of a steep slope. In several sections and sondages we uncovered ...eight funerary complexes. These belong to a larger area, found just above the limits of the estate in question, on a spot investigated by the colleagues from the National History Museum of Romania. All the funerary complexes are cremation graves. In a few cases we found works in steps, and the grave goods were deposited especially on the upper edge. The grave goods are usually scarce, sometimes even lacking. The categories of artifacts are little varied, more often than not represented by jugs and lamps. Chronologically it is probable that they date to the 2nd century AD. Zlaczki Andrei estate In several successive sections, we found two deposits of considerable sizes. In one of these we found a considerable amount of stones that, at least in part, might be interpreted as belonging to a wall. It is possible that in the deepest level related to the previously-recorded “pavement”. Both these levels belong stratigraphically to the Roman period. Next to this complex (without being able to establish a clear relation) we found a fragment from a votive altar dedicated to Fortuna Augusta.- Proprietatea Bara Lucreția Terenul respectiv se prezintă în cea mai mare parte a sa sub forma unei pante cu o înclinare considerabilă. În mai multe secțiuni și casete au ieșit la iveală un număr de opt complexe funerare. Acestea aparțin unei arii mai mari, aflate în cea mai mare parte puțin mai sus de limitele proprietății respective, pe o parcelă investigată de colegii de la MNIR. Toate complexele funerare sunt de incinerație. În câteva cazuri se întâlnesc amenajări cu treaptă, iar inventarul a fost depus mai ales pe marginea de mai sus. Piesele de inventar sunt în ansamblu puține sau, uneori, chiar absente. Categoriile de obiecte sunt și ele prea puțin variate, cel mai adesea reprezentate de ulcioare și opaițe. Din punct de vedere cronologic este destul de probabilă o încadrare în cursul secolului al II-lea p. Chr. Proprietatea Zlaczki Andrei Prin mai multe secțiuni succesive, au fost sesizate două complexe de dimensiuni considerabile. Într-unul din acestea a apărut o cantitate însemnată de pietre, care, măcar în parte ar putea fi interpretate a fi aparținut unui zid. S-ar putea crede, de asemenea, că în nivelul mai profund față de cel amintit ar fi existat un "pavaj". Amândouă dintre aceste niveluri corespund, din punct de stratigrafic, epocii romane. Alături de complexul menționat (fără putea stabili o relație clară) a fost găsit un fragment de altar votiv dedicat Fortunei Augusta.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Archaeological excavations on Lipscani Street, the area between Smârdan Street and I.C. Brătianu Boulevard were done in September - ...October 2008. All along the street we excavated the foundations of different kind of buildings, with or without basement, most of them being dated to the 18th and 19th centuries. On the north side of the street, close to the crossroad with Smârdan Street, archaeological investigations found an aqueduct from the 17th-18th centuries and a fountain from the 16th century. The foundations of the Gabroveni Inn were investigated, too. It was possible to make some observations considering the architectural transformations of this monument from the 18th century on. In the space between buildings we documented important parts from the wood pavement of the street.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.

Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- The archaeological site of Vădastra is best known for the rich Neolithic material excavated by. C. Mateescu between 1946 and 1974. ...The excavations took place on the Măgura Fetelor-Dealul Cișmelei hill, on the right bank of the Obârșia river. The old excavations also yielded an important collection of Paleolithic flint pieces, determined by J. Hahn (1974) as typical Aurignacian, while Arlette Leroi-Gourhan (1967) had already previously established its stratigraphical and paleo-environmental context. The archaeological research in 2011 had as its main objective the identification of the Paleolithic cultural layer and its IRSL dating. A small 15 sqm trench was opened on the Măgura Fetelor-Dealul Cișmelei hill and excavated down to a depth of over 3m. Despite the fact that during the present excavation no Paleolithic layer was identified, we consider that, for the old excavations, it corresponds to the layer of gravel with calcareous formations, attributed to the MIS 3 (Marine Isotope Stadium 3). Also, the presence of the innumerable animal disturbances casts some doubt over the results of the palynologic analyses of Arlette Leroi-Gourhan. Three Neolithic complexes were observed, probably all pit features. Their fills contained pottery fragments (the Vădastra culture) associated with animal bones, flint and bone tools and charcoal fragments. A field survey took place on Linia Mare - La Georgescu hill, mentioned in the old field notes as a possible Early Neolithic Starčevo-Criș site. The survey revealed the fact that site has been badly damaged by household constructions and agricultural works. Nevertheless, a rich collection of artifacts (painted pottery fragments, flint and bone tools) was recovered.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.
