Annotation Fortificații urbane în Scythia Minor (original title). The volume proposes a broad synthesis of the urban fortifications of Scythia in the late Roman period, updating the information with the new discoveries. The text deliberately violates the limits imposed by the title. Along with the urban centers (with legal status of city) are also presented the fortified settlements with an area of more than one hectare (i.e. Ulmetum and Capidava). It is aimed at researchers, students and the general public.
