Casa aurarului Michael Lutsch. Date noi privind istoricul unei case de locuit premoderne din Cluj

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p.157-174.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.08

Abstract:

This study is dedicated to a pre‑modern dwelling house in downtown Cluj, located on the south side of today’s Memorandumului Street. Although the edifice features many aspects of the stylistic evolution of the architecture of Cluj, built in Gothic style, with considerable changes that pertained to the Renaissance and then the Baroque styles, the history of the edifice is almost unknown. Our study aims to provide a detailed description of the building, to outline the various stages of its construction, and to identify the people who animated its spaces and contributed to the history of the building.

A Medieval Finger Ring with Christian Motif from Gălățeni/Szentgerice

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p.145-156.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.07

Abstract:

The area around Gălăţeni village, Mureş county, on the left bank of Niraj River is poor in archaeological sites. From the settlement and nearby villages only a couple isolated finds are known, early bronze age and bronze age objects1. The paper presents a silver ring fragment which was found with a metal detector on a hilltop covered with dense forest, at east from the village, at a depth of about 20 cm. We consider it is important to be documented, as it could have belonged to one of the first settlers of the medieval village Sancta Gerecia.

From Seed to Bread. Was Panis Romae Like our Bread?

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p.135-144.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.06

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to analyze some aspects of the milling process, the fineness of the flour, the quality of bread and bakery products from the Roman age. By means of archaeological experiments we have analyzed the practical aspects of the ‘chaîne opératoire’, such as productivity of the mill, quality of the grist and bread making.

Preliminary Study of Terra Sigillata Vessels from Călugăreni/Mikháza

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p.111-134.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.05

Abstract:

Between 2013 and 2021 several imported terra sigillata fragments were discovered in the principia of the Roman auxiliary fort and the military vicus during excavations and field surveys at Călugăreni / Mikháza. The current study is based on a preliminary analysis of 81 fragments from 73 terra sigillata vessels, which will allow a better understanding of certain aspects of the fort’s and the settlement’s daily life, expand the interpretative possibilities of certain contexts and provide insight into the region’s commercial network in the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD.

The Research of Roman Stone Gate Towers in Dacia Porolissensis

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p.63-110

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.04

Abstract:

The current paper presents the researched stone gates from the Roman auxiliary forts of Dacia Porolissensis. The shape of the gate towers and the size of their protrusion have dating significance, which in our case suggest two major rebuilding phases: the construction of the stone precincts and their improvement from a defensive, tactical point of view.

Roman Hairpins from Călugăreni / Mikháza

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p. 45-62.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.03

Abstract:

This paper discusses a total of 21 bone and bronze hairpins from the Roman military site of Călugăreni / Mikháza. Although evidence confirms the presence of bone-working workshops operating at the site, bone and bronze hairpins are represented in nearly equal proportions. Furthermore, eight hairpins were discovered within the fort, which, along with other pieces of jewelry, suggests the presence of women in this military context.

Marisia. Archaeologia-Historia-Patrimonium 5, 2023, p. 33-44

DOI: https://doi.org/10.63509/MrsAHP.2023.5.02

Abstract:

The paper presents the Late Bronze Age archaeological discoveries of Odorheiu Secuiesc–Kadicsfalvi rét/Alsólok. The burials and connected features are characteristic to the Late Bronze Age Noua culture, however several elements of the Middle Bronze Age Wietenberg culture can also be observed. In this respect the paper analyses the chronological aspects and the character of the transition between the two cultures.
