About

Dausdava was an ancient Dacian town located in the Moesia region, positioned strategically between the Danube River and the Balkan Mountains. This settlement is known for its role during the Late Iron Age and the Classical Period, particularly around the 1st century BCE and into the 1st century CE when the area experienced Roman influence. Its location between modern-day Nikopol and Razgrad in Bulgaria suggests it was part of a network of towns that facilitated trade and cultural exchange in the region. The town's significance lies in its representation of Dacian urban development and its interaction with Roman expansion into the Balkans.
