Cercetări arheologice preventive în județul Giurgiu

Abstract

The implementation works for the BRUA project imposed the making of an archaeological evaluation for the route taken by the natural gas line and, implicitly, depending on the situations, of archaeological rescue excavations. In the following, we will focus on specific results from the BRUA route area in the center of Giurgiu country – Mirău (Stoenești commune). The stratigraphy of the site is predominantly natural. All stratigraphic interventions (a very probable diagnostic survey – Cx2, two medieval pits – Cx1 and Cx3, also a series of wooden poles that we attribute to some fencing works made during the 70’s and 80’s of the twentieth century) affect a level of ancient soil and are, stratigraphicaly, covered by the level of the current one, ploughed. The pottery and archaeozoological remains are the only materials discovered and recovered. Even if the inventory of Cx3 is weaker from a quantitative point of view, the characteristics of both categories are unitary, proving both contemporaneity and identical manifestations and behaviors.
