Archaeological report: Săvșin/comuna: Săvșin/Raport county: Arad/dot: Cetuie (2008)

The results of this campaign include both the Coțofeni and Dacian vestiges on the Plateau, remained in situ or pushed towards the slope, and the identification of a new terrace inhabited on the south part of the hill. On the plateau we identified five Coțofeni features, dug into the rock. A Coțofeni occupation, the 3rd phase, was found also on the south part of the hill, rather steep, where we noticed a slightly flat area, about 40 x 15 m, presenting the characteristics of a human intervention, probably dating from the Dacian period. The Dacian period vestiges, both as regards the features and the materials, belong to the types already known for this site. Nevertheless, it is worth mentioning the large number of metal artefacts, especially chisels and knives. Chronologically, the Dacian period vestiges, both on the Plateau, and on the south terrace, date to the 1st century BC – 1st century AD.
