Abstract
The epigraphy of Dacia illustrates different types of communities without municipal status, canabae, vici, pagi, kastella and forms of organization of the rural territory of the territoria and regiones types, centered on settlements of the vicus, pagus, and kastellum types. Some inscriptions, older or more recent, also provide data on rural settlements and their names. The inscriptions have been discovered in Dacia, but it is possible that the toponyms they record indicate settlements from other provinces. I have selected three cases of lectio difficilior where the full name of the settlements cannot be reconstructed due to the fragmentary state of the monuments, to lacunae, or simply to modern ignorance. The three fragmentary sequences are APAL.NIS (CIL III 7728), KISUGI (ILD I 513) and VICI [....]NI (AE 2012, 1237).
