1 Several decades ago in his anempt to "rehailitate" uran definition in Byzantium during the so-called Dark Ages, the 7th9th century, G. Ostrogorsky used this approach to the relevant sources (Ostrogorsky 1959). Taking into account the objective laws goveming the development of science, Ostrogorsky's passion is easy to explain and may even necessary from
historiographic point of view. There is no excuse however for the statement mentioned v, which is based not only on
an uncritical acceptance of uran definitions in Late Antique sources, but adds confidently the mentioned castra (povpta)
to the Late Antique towns.

2 ln several puiications 1 have discussed the development, importance, characteristics and classification of the non-uran
fortified settlements from Thracia and Dacia primarily in the territory of Bulgaria ( 1996, 23-32; Dintchev
1997; Dintchev \998; Dintchev, in print). ln view of the recent pu\ications of . Dunn aout settlement life in the Balkans during the transitional period to the Dark-Age (Dunn \994; Dunn \997; Dunn 1998), 1 would like to point out that
there are certain structural differences etween the 6th century fortified non-urban settlement centers and the 8th century
Byzantine rv and therefore we should not regard the former as direct prototype of the Jatter.

Atique tows accordig to this locality do t
raise objectios amog the specialists. The site
cosists of two parts - quadriburgium d
"castellum". The costructio of the
quadriburgium is dated to the late 3rd or very
early 4th century, d the costructio of the socalled castellum to the secod quarter of the 4th
cetury ( 1974, 339-342; Atanasova 1974; 1981, 3-4; Atanasova 1987). The former covers an area of0,16
ha, and the latter an area of 1,25 ha (Atanasova 1987, 122): thus the whole protected
area is . 1,4 ha. Accordingly, the main index of the site is far d the real, icludig
the small tows of the diocese of Dacia. What
is more, the quadriburgium, as explored so far,
is of a-purely military character, as demostraed
t l the l d costructio of the fortress but also the structural uits withi the
protected area. So it meas that the supposed
settlemet structure is restricted to withi the
4
so-called castellum . There are other disturblg
facts about the site related to the Castra Martis

3 Gratiana is not one of the towns and fortifications of Moesia superior listed Procopius ( 1959, 164-165). Bearing in mind the location of Saldum and the quoted text from De aedificiis, it has n suggested that the site mentioned
Procopius is Kamabaza (h 1974,55-56, 57; Kondic 1984, 142, not. 15; h 1984, 129, eJI. 3; Vasic
1995, 44, 45).
4 According the excavator, the igger fortress is also of military character (Atanasova 1974, 168; 1981, 4;
At.a nasova 1987, 122). The area it protected has not yct been excavated and its identification with military casrellum
is still unproved. military identification of this fonress would mean that there is no place for settlement structure in the
site. If the site under the modcm town of Kula is Castra Martis, the settlement center and the ishopric mentioned in the
sources should within the igger fortress.
5 The later traces of life found within the quadriburgium are simple constructions of stone and mud as well as the re-use
of the earlier architectural remains. Some of the new buildings are situated outside and efore the earlier fonification
structures, . g. the rectangular "room", built of stone and mud, situated efore the southeast tower. The cultural layer
related to the new inhabitants is thin and yielded small numer of finds. The arrival of new people, ethnically diffcrent, is
assumed (Atanasova 1974, 170; Atanasova 1987, 124-125). Judging from the text written Procopius, the excavator
assumes this last occupational period as "re-estaiishment" of Castra Martis, and the quadriburgium in particular
(Atanasova 1974, 170-172; Atanasova 1987, 125). ln view of the data already mentioned, the thesis of re-estaiishment is
doubtful . Occupation of space among the ruins is possiie without re-building the defenses. The chronology of the occupation has yet to settled.

3,5 ha at most (Scorpan 1980, 31-33, pl. VIIIX). In additio, the structure of the larger,
eastem fortress, accordig to the so-called restored plan made i the 1860s (Tocilescu 1902,
73, 75) is pointedly military one. lf we accept
military idetification for this fortress, the
other, the westem, one would the Late Antique settlement center Troesmis, with an area
t exceeding 1,5 ha 7 .
Hierocles mentions Halmiris among the
towns of the province of Scythia. In view of the
main criterion however, Late Antique Halmiris
does not have the size and significance of urban centers in the Balkas at that time. Its late
3rd/early 4th century fortification protected an
area of 2,45 ha (Zahariade 1996, 229-230); it
defended the site until the late 6th-early 7th
century and has priority in present archeologica1 excavations 8 .
Capidava in the province of Scythia is another example of the discrepancy betwee
sources and real data. It is mentioned
Hierocles and is defined modern historiography as Late Antique urban center. The
archeological excavations, aimed mainly at the
defenses, revealed several phases during the
4th-6th century, which could focused two
mai periods. Capidava's protected area was
1,3 ha during the first period. At the beginning
of the second period the initial fortification
system was abandoned and new, smaller castle erected, covering area of only 0,36 ha
7 There have n no new cxcavations at Troesmis since the ones in consideraiy small area in the previous century. For
analysis and comment on the availaie data on Late Antique Troesmis see: Poulter 1984, 117 (not. 33}, 122; Zahariade

9 The opinion of . Scorpan is an exception among the carlier puiications (Scorpan 1980, 36-37) and it coincides with the
referenccs in the following tcxt.
10 Archaeological excavations at Carsium, for example, are still in the initian stages. The area of its Late Antique castle, the
so-called castrum, is not larger than 1,5 ha (Nicolae 1993, 215-219; Panait et !. 1998, 122-127, fig. 1). Another fortification wall, surrounding area at least ten times larger, \\'as partially excavated to the east of the castle mentioned v . It
is supposed that this wall dates from the 61}, century. The 4th-5th century - and "even later" - necropolis in the arca surrounded the wall is presented as argument (Nicolae 1993, 217, 220-222, 229). It is clear that the chronological frame
of the necropolis is still uncertain and there are no firrn data, either constructional or stratigraphic, on the date of the wall.
Such enlargement of the protected area in the 6th century would unpreccdented for the province and for the Balkans as
whole. In view of the proiematic dating of the wall we should mention the source data on the significance ofHar~ova
thc descendant of Carsium, during the Ottoman period ( 1981 , 208-21 0).

13 The fonified centcr at the modern Shurdhah is identified as Sarda. However, this name is found only in mediaeval sources
(Spahiu/Komata 1975, 322-323).

15 This center is situated . 35 km to the nonheast from Bargala. which in 371 elonged to Dacia mediterranea (Velkov
1977,93, 98). Thus the Kamenica region in nonheast Macedonia also elonged in the 4th century to the same province
74
18 Unti\ recently the esta\ishment of the fortress of Carassura was dated to the eginning of Late Antiquity (Herrmann
et !. 1986, 87; et al. 1988, 4). The new excavations reveal however that revision is necessary ( et al.
1990, 136). milestone column re-used at the gate in the north sector of the eastem defensive wa\1 is fixed tenninus
post quem. The column dates to "the time ofConstantine 1 and his sons" (J< et !. 1994, 91).
19 The arguments of the excavators rest on grave containing no grave goods, found under the r of the diaconicon of the
extra muros basilica, and the fact that it looks more representative in comparison with the basilica in the castle
( et al. 198&., 8). Obviously it is not enough to define the former as an episcopal church. The fact that the
new excavations revealed other early Christian burials (J< et al. 1994, 92), is an indication that the v
mentioned grave should not overestimated.
20
h thesis of Late Antique Ca,.assura eing "one ofthe numerous co1onate vi1\ages in hrace" ( 1992, 94) is
unacceptae. lt is incoJect if we consider the principles of the settlement classification. ln \riew of its "colonate" character, it is untrue.

1994).
21 The camp area as we\1 as the Late Antique settlement's one is estimated as 5 ha in some puiications (-
1986, 124; - 1994, 14). This figure seems too high ifwe look at the lengths ofthe defensive walls.
Actually, according to the general plan ( 1982, fig. 1; 1995, 135) this area is just . 3 ha .
22 The dry masonry fonrcss in Cabyle, partially exca\ated and covering an area of . 21 ha is dated to thc Hellenistic
period most specialists ( 1986, 4-6; 1991, 54-60). The hypothesis for late Roman date for
this fortress ( 1990, 29) is groundlcss. town fortification ofsuch size and construction would unprecedented within the limits of the Late Roman Empire. J regard most unlikely the assumption that the remains from
the Hellenistic fortress were re-uscd in the 4th century A.D. ( 1982,165-166). The r cxistence of
second late Roman defensive system to the south of Hissarlaka hill could assumcd on the base of shon information about"an excavated pan of an eastem fonification wal\" "''ith "an entrance, flanked two bastions", madc of stone
and mortar ( et al. 1973, 25-26). The area to the south of Hissarlaka is thought to the place of the ear1iest
" true Hadrian's military camp" ( et al. 1991, 72). 1facccpted such variant would mean that the sccondary
use of thc relevant defenses in the late rd-early 4th century "''as not impossiie.
23 The two Christian basilicas excavated within and out of the fonress functioned in the 5th-6th centuries. number of new
buildings of smaller size and worse construction appear at thattime on the sites of abandoned larger Late Roman buildings
and in the free spaces. Similar processes are recorded beyond the limits of Hissarlaka, for example, on and around the
ruins ofthe lrreum and the Late Roman rlu!m1ae (see the refcrences above). These developments indicate the changes in
the structure and in the architecture of early Byzantine Cabyle and also suggest consideraie demographic potential. Jn
fact the changes in Cabyle are no different from the development of the other fonified settlements in 17~racia and Duciu in
the early Byzantine period.

tigations in the interior provinces are unsatisfactory but the prolem about the discrepancy between sources and real settlements value has
never n ig prolem there 24
However, large military population lived
not only in Scythia but also in the rest of the
border provinces of hracia and Dacia. Why
then are the most administratively distinct
centers, not meeting real urban definition,
found in Scythia? This prolem is usually modified and presented modem historiography
within the context of discussion on church organization of the province, fact quite indicative of the sense of relevant urban definitions.
well-known law of emperor Zeno from
480 states "every town ... is oliged to have its
own ishop." The only exception mentioned
explicitly is related to "the most holy churches
under the rule of Tomis in the province of
Scythia" which were to "keep their status"
( 1959, 21-22). According to most specialists, the presentation of the ishop of
Tomis as Metropolitan in the participants'
lists of the Council of Constantinopolis in 520,
is an indication that this exception wasalready
history at the time of Emperor Anastasius 1
when new ishoprics were estalished in
Scythia. It is accepted that the towns of the
province mentioned about ten years later in
Hierocles's Synecdemus were centers for the
new ishoprics. The comparatively late date of
their estaishment is explained the specific character of the local church organization (Popescu 1975, 178, 181-182;
1979, 148-149; Duval/Popovic 1980, 388389; 1984, 165-166; Popescu 1988,
84-86, 91-92; Suceveanu/Barnea 1991, 288290; Suceveanu/Bamea 1993, 174-176; Sampetru 1994, 105-11 , 120, 180).
I share the opinion that the new ishoprics
in Scythia were estaished during the reign
of Anastasius 1. In view with the objective
characteristics of some centers - the abovementioned Axiopo/is, Troesmis, Halmiris and
Capidava for example, 1 think they are defined
Hierocles as towns because they are ish-

op's seats. The estalishmet of the w bishoprics is an importat chage in the church
organizatio of the province but, bearig i
mind the sigificance of the istitution of
ishop i Late Atiquity, this chage should
not regarded only as act of chage i the
church organizatio. lt also bears certai political meaig. aalysis of the situatio in
the provice durig the reig of Anastasius 1
suggests that the most r political reason for estaishment of new ishoprics was
the major revolt in 513 of the foederati, settled uder the leadership of their comes Vitalian25. 1t is logical to assume that the grat of
additioal admiistrative rights, icludig the
estalishmet of w ishoprics, was part of
the precautios take the empire to suppress
the revolt, which lasted years, as well as to prevet such evets i the future.
The actual administrative sigificance of
centers such asAxiopo/is, Troesmis, Halmiris,
Capidava or Salsovia, after they became blshop's seats, was proportioate to their size: they
were still not equal to the real tows in the
provice of Scythia. The blshoprics of these
ceters were t equal in sigificat to the
blshopric (metropolitan) of Tomis, or to the i
shoprics of Dionysopolis or Tropaeum Traiani,
or v to the blshopric of lstros which was
obviously i declie in Late Atiquity, but still
. ur pattem 26.
k ept 1ts
These coclusions are also valid for the
above-metioed ceters of the other provices
of the two dioceses, oted as blshop's seats. It
is difficult to assume that the admiistrative
significace of Castra Martis, as presetly lo-
w sites are recorded in Naissus region, and it has been written that "they could defined as small fortified towns"
(DuvaVPopovi( 1980, 378). Additional information is presented only for the site at Balajanac. Its fortified area is quadrangular in shape and measures ". 200 \ m", i. . it is . 2 ha (Iid.). Therefore it cannot considered real
small town. The same is applied to the most of the Late Antique fortified centers on the territory ofthe Repuiic of
Macedonia (Mikul~ic 1986, 108-109, 112-114), which elonged to the provinces of Dardania and Dacia Mediterranea.
These and other centers with similar definitions from the territory of the two dioceses are not presented here in details,
since their real archeological investigation has either not started or has just egan.
