“…Table 4 provides the energies for the 6 H 2 O hydrated HAP (0 0 0 1) surface, which with Table 3 indicate that Zn prefers to occupy the Ca(II) vacancy site over Ca(I) with an energy gain of 0.88 eV (unhydrated surface) and 0.21 eV (hydrated surface). This can be compared to only DE ¼ 0.05 eV preference for site II in bulk, calculated by exactly the same methodology [40]. Lesser energy gain on a hydrated surface, compared to the dry surface, implies that the surface modified by adsorbed water seriously affects the potential of this termination.…”

“…In Romania, the post-Roman era has recently been reinterpreted away from earlier models of depopulation toward evidence for the continuity of complex society (Ellis 1998). The famous Polish site of Biskupin, a walled, nucleated settlement from the early Iron Age, ca.…”

While some researchers continue to focus fruitfully on traditional issues, in recent years new perspectives, some strongly revisionist, have developed within European Iron Age archaeology, moving it from a long-static state into a rapidly changing milieu. Studies of colonialism, imperialism, and interaction have undergone sequential shifts into new territory, while topics related to sacred activity, political apparatuses, and the ruler-subject relationship have undergone substantial reworking. Perspectives absent from earlier literature have emerged: gender, age, ethnicity, and identity, and interpretations employing theories of practice, agency, landscape, and embodiment have emerged, mirroring broader disciplinary shifts. An overarching trend sees Iron Age Europe as a series of interactive societies with both broad similarities and sharp regional, even local, differences, moving through time and ever-changing relationships, influences, and trajectories. The collision of traditional and revisionist scholarship has produced debate, some heated, but has improved and invigorated the field.

“…Despite the lack of clarity regarding the identity of Dacians, it was impractical for academics to wholly abandon the notion of Roman descent. The new theory henceforth became 8 271 CE is the common date for Aurelian's abandonment of Dacia, it may have occurred up till 275 (Ellis 1998). 9 Herodotus (4.93) writes, "Their [the Getae] belief in their immortality is as follows: they believe that they do not die, but that one who perishes goes to the deity Salmoxis, or Gebeleïzis, as some of them call him."…”

“…4 This region resisted incorporation into the Roman Empire partially because of the continued pressure of migrating populations moving west from the Russian steppe. The Carpathian Gap, the lowlands between the Carpathian Mountains and the Black Sea, was a popular route into Europe for the steppe tribes of the 4 th -8 th centuries (Ellis 1998;Curta 2001). The Roman fortifications and legions could not withstand the continued pressure, leading eventually to the complete abandonment of the region.…”

Frontiers of Romania: Nationalism and the Ideological Space of the Roman Limes

Modern Romania is a nation-state containing space which has long been considered marginal - first as part of the Roman Empire and now within the European Union. The national narrative of Romania highlights this liminality, focusing on the interactions between the Romans and the local Dacians on the northeastern border regions of the Empire. Romania still contains significant material remnants of the Iron Age, including the Roman Limes, a series of fortifications on the Danube River meant to protect the Roman borders. As such, the archaeological tradition of this geographic space is heavily entangled with Romania’s identity as a frontier region. This paper outlines the formation of Romanian national space, focusing on the period between the seventeenth century and 1918. It considers the relationship between the materiality of the Roman Limes and ideological frontiers in Romania, examining the role of archaeology in the sustainment of the Romanian nation space.
