	Dacia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dacia, in ancient geography the land of the Daci, named by the ancient Greeks Getae, was a large district of Central Europe, bounded on the north by the Carpathians, on the south by the Danube, on the west by the Tisa, on the east by the Tyras or Nistru, now in eastern Moldova.
		The Roman Province Dacia is represented on Roman Sestertius (coin) as a woman seated on a rock, holding aquila, a small child on her knee holding ears of grain, and a small child seated before her holding grapes.
		A kingdom of Dacia was in existence at least as early as the beginning of the 2nd century BC under a king, Oroles.

	HISTORY AND IMPERIAL PROPAGANDA IN ROME
		According to the Roman historian, the Aurelian's act was unavoidable for the South-Danubian Roman provinces' salvation, where the emperor established his new Dacia with the Romans from the North of the river.
		By 1000, it is attested the presence of a Roman population, transformed in slaves by the Anglo-Saxons [13].
		It is in connection with the 'Romans' colonization "for the fields' cultivation and cities' inhabitance", in a case, and the 'Romans' retreat to the Southern of the Danube, "brought from the cities and the fields" of the Dacia, in the other case.

	Dacia

		The conquest of Dacia by the Romans and its turning into an imperial province (A.D. 106-271) brought about major changes in the native population's economic, social and political life.
		The crisis that shook the Roman Empire in the 3rd century, as well as the pressure exerted by the "Barbarian" populations, made Emperor Aurelianus (A.D. 270-275) withdraw his troops, administrative body and part of the urban population from Dacia southward, across the Danube (A.D. 271), where Dacia Aureliana was set up.
		Their main occupation was the cultivation of land and the breeding of animals; their Roman ancestry is still reflected in the Romanian language, as the names of the chief occupations and farm products in Romanian are of Latin origin.

		The nominal boundaries of Roman Dacia were the river Theiss on the west, the Pruth on the east, `barbarians' on the north, and the river Danube on the south.
		That the Roman emperors had to contend, with very varying fortunes, with barbarous tribes is certain, and that their arms were still frequently successful is proved by the erection of fortresses and towns, named after their emperors, on the borders of their possessions.

	Vlachs
		Since the 19th century the Rumanian historians traditionally claim the Vlachs to be descendants of the ancient Romans who in the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD occupied Dacia, a Roman province located in the regions of Transylvania and the Carpathian Mountains of modern Romania.
		Another theory suggests that their ancestors were a Thracian tribe, native to the Roman province of Dacia, which intermarried with the Roman colonists and assimilated their language and culture.
		After the Romans evacuated Dacia (AD 271), the area was subjected to a series of barbarian invasions.

		Yet a definitive answer, as L. perfectly understands, is rendered unlikely by the difficulty of identifying the indigenous population archaeologically, the imperfect state and inaccurate chronology of the available data, the deficiency of the excavation reports, and the lack of high-quality distribution and topographic maps (34-36, 69).
		It is O's contention that "the impact of the Roman conquest on the landscape of Dacia with respect to the survival and treatment of the native population was probably not as dramatic as previously thought, but it may have been quite great in terms of modification of the landscape, both natural and human" (163).
		"The diffusion of religious belief in Roman Dacia: a case-study of the gods of Asia Minor" by Schäfer (hereafter "S.") uses archaeological monuments to identify the cultural identity of the immigrants, focusing, in particular, on the worshipers and the dynamic process of the formation of a new religious structure in Roman Dacia.

	Old Times
		By the endeavor of the natives of Dacia and Roman colonists and by their practical-mindedness, Dacia reached a high level of material and spiritual culture.
		Dacia also underwent the important process of Romanization, which left lasting marks, traceable to this day, in the Romanian people's Latin language, in its name, conscience, and culture.
		The crisis that occurred in the Roman Empire, as well as the pressure of the Barbarians toward the very long borders of the Roman Empire, forced Emperor Aurelianus to decide in 271 A.D. the withdrawal of the Roman troops, administration, and a part of the urban population from Dacia.
