Item PAS CU PAS. CERCETĂRI INTERDISCIPLINARE LA SITUL DE EPOCA FIERULUI DE LA SAHARNA „RUDE” DIN BAZINUL NISTRULUI DE MIJLOC(2024) Zanoci, Aurel; Asăndulesei, Andrei; Băț, Mihail; Sochircă, Vitalie; Nagacevschi, Tatiana; Tencariu, Adrian-Felix; Dulgher, VictorIn the Middle Dniester Basin, from the 1940s to the present, several archaeological sites dating back to the Iron Age have been discovered and explored. In the past two decades, a team of researchers from the Moldova State University has been engaged in archaeological research in the Saharna microregion, where several fortifications and open settlements dating from both the Early and the Late Iron Age have been studied. Among them, the Saharna “Rude” site stands out, where, non-destructive surveys, as well as archaeological excavations were carried out in 2018-2021. As a result, traces of three phases of habitation were found at the Saharna “Rude” site. According to the discovered artifacts, the first phase of habitation can be attributed to the Early Iron Age (middle of the 12th century – 11th century BC), which corresponds to the Holercani-Hansca horizon. At the next stage, a circular enclosure was built in the northern part of the plateau, to the south of which there was an extensive settlement belonging to the CoziaSaharna culture (10th-9th centuries BC). The discovery of fragments of Greek amphoras, as well as handmade pottery specific to the Getic culture, indicates that this territory was also inhabited during the Late Iron Age (4th-3rd centuries BC). Therefore, the situation attested at Saharna “Rude” is similar to the one on the promontory opposite the Saharna Mare and comes to confirm the intense habitation of the Saharna microregion by human communities in the period from the middle of the 12th to the end of the 3rd century BC.Item INVESTIGAŢIILE ARHEOLOGICE LA SITUL SAHARNA MARE / „DEALUL MĂNĂSTIRII”, RAIONUL REZINA (2017-2019)*(2019) Niculiţă, Ion; Zanoci, Aurel; Băţ, Mihail; Dulgher, VictorThe archaeological research conducted in 2017-2019 was concentrated in the southwest part of the site, where as a result of the geomagnetic measurements a positive anomaly was attested that denotes the presence of burned structures. Following the archaeological excavations (256 m2) in this part of the settlement, three layers of living were identified: Holercani-Hansca, Cozia-Saharna and Thracian-Getae. It was discovered a pit (7/2018) belonging to the Holercani-Hansca horizon whose filling contained ceramics characteristic of this culture. For the Cozia-Saharna layer was found a structure (4/2017-2019), 12 pits, a burial, and various archaeological inventory represented by work tools, weapons and ceramics ornamented with incised and stamped ornaments. In the Thracian-Getae layer were uncovered three structures, 13 pits and a rich archaeological findings. Among the inventory items are tools and utensils made of different raw materials – iron, bronze, bone and horn, stone and burnt clay. From this layer come several weapons, in particular, tips of bronze arrows, as well as pieces of jewelry, represented by fibuale, bracelets, rings etc. Also, from the Thracian-Getae layer was recovered a significant amount of local ceramics and Greek imports
