“…Recently, Dacian gold spiral bracelets have been found by clandestine treasure hunters using metal detectors near Sarmizegetusa Regia, the capital of the Dacian kingdom (Constantinescu et al, , 2009. Furthermore, the Dacians minted a great number of copies of Roman silver denarius coins (Preda, 1973).…”

“…To answer these questions, we began our research with a study of the Roman mines, and not of the objects, as the common practice has been up to now. Indeed, several attempts at authentication and metal provenance determination of Dacian gold artefacts have been performed based on comparisons of elementary contents (Hauptmann et al, 1995;Constantinescu et al, 2008Constantinescu et al, , 2009. However, both the limited database of ore sample compositions and the lack of archaeological and geological contexts for the samples render the conclusions of these studies questionable.…”
