The Roman settlement on Gamzigrad prior to the imperial palace Felix Romuliana
Abstract
The existance of the earlier Roman settlement which arose before the
construction of Galerius’ palace Felix Romuliana was confirmed by
archaeological research. The traces of earlier buildings, constructed from
the end of 2nd to the end of 3rd century, were discovered inside the
fortified imperial residence: 1. three-naved building south from the “Large
temple”, 2. the building below the earlier southern tower of the East gate,
3. the large building beneath the Galerius’ baths and 4. the building in
front of the later southern tower of the West gate. Roman settlement from the
3rd century at Gamzigrad could be one of the mining - metallurgical and
commercial centers (vici, civitas) in the Timok Valley.
