PROJECT DACIANS IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE. PROVINCIAL CONSTRUCTIONS
PN - III - ID - PCE- 2016 - 4 - 0186
Contract 130/12.07.2017

All activities for the year 2019 have been carried out according to the established plan.

 

The team members have carried out research activities in libraries and museums inside the country, as well as abroad, all in order to achieve the objective establisehd for the year 2019, meaning the elaboration of monographical studies for the different fields which illustrate the presence of the Dacians inside the Roman province of Dacia, as well as the Roman Empire. To achieve this, various artifacts have been carefully studied and analyzed from collections pertaining to the National History Museum of Transylvania, The History Museum Turda, Museum of Ethnography and Border Regiment Caransebeș, Museum Of The Highland Banat, Reșița. Partial studies undergone and finalized throughout the year have been presented at various international and national scientific sessions, and will be published in the planned volumes to illustrate the results of the project.

One of the objectives of the year 2019 consists of the organization of a workshop as a part of the international project F.E.R.C.AN (Fontes Epigraphici Religionum Celticarum ANtiquarum), with the main purpose of discussing the issue of religious integration of the Celtic populations, with some of the most important foreign researchers and specialists on this subject. The workshop was organised in collaboration with the Center of Roman Studies (project PN-III-P4-ID-PCE-2016-0255) in the period 5th-7th July 2019, alongside the participation of collegues from the Babeș-Bolyai University from Cluj (Romania), as well as the Graz University (Austria) (http://hiphi.ubbcluj.ro/Dacians_Provincial-constructions/doc/FERCAN_program.pdf).

Therefore, through this scientific manifestation organised in Cluj-Napoca, the objective established for the year 2019, of disseminating the results of each team members research, has successfully been reached.

Another scientific manifestation has been organised in collaboration with The History Museum Turda, in the form of the national archaeological colloquium whose central theme was Writing, reading and education in Dacia, held in the period 8th-9th November 2019. Collegues from archaeological institutions from all over the country attended this colloquium. With this occasion, the temporary exhibition Writing, reading and education in Dacia was held (the curator being one of the team members of the project), which will be open in the period 8th November 2019 – 31st March 2020. All the team members of the project have actively participated and presented communicatios during this scientific colloquium. (http://hiphi.ubbcluj.ro/Dacians_Provincial-constructions/doc/Colocviu-Turda_2019_Program.pdf).

Besides these scientific manifestations organised as a part of the project, the dissemination of our research results was materialized through a series of publications in scientific journals and volumes, as well as scientific communications and presentations at various national and international conferences and colloquiums. As a result, two scientific manifestations were organised, followed by the editing of two volumes of studies, the publishing of two books, 10 articles in international volumes of studies, 6 articles in international journals, and 4 articles in national journals. The members of the team have participated and actively presented communications at four national colloquiums and one international scientific manifestation (10 scientific communications in total).
