Ancient Village or Settlement in Ukraine

The area near Orlivka (Cartal) was inhabited by the Hallstatt culture (8th to 7th centuries BC), the Getae (since 4th century BC), and the Romans and Dacians (2nd to 3rd centuries AD). The complex includes burials (including burial mounds) from the earlier periods, and ruins of the Roman fortress Aliobrix from the later period. Aliobrix was the only Roman castrum on the left bank of the Danube near its delta, and a river crossing was located nearby, connecting it to Noviodunum across the river. A part of the Moesian fleet was based at the fortress.
