The 21 beads form part of a bronze hoard found in 2019 within a forested area close to the town of Nisporeni. Alongside the beads, the hoard included numerous bronze ornaments (2 Röschitz-Sanislău-type fibulae, 7 necklaces, 12 rings, 22 tubes, 23 bracelets, and approximately 80 appliqués), one coral bead and a pendant made from a wild animal's tooth. At present, the amber beads are preserved in the collections of the Muzeul Național de Istorie a Moldovei, while the remainder of the hoard is in the possession of a private collector. The hoard was discovered accidentally in a pit about 50 cm deep. The objects in this hoard are of Western origin, with known parallels in archaeological complexes from Poland, Hungary, Serbia, and Slovakia, and, to a lesser extent, in Romania. The presence of this bronze hoard on the territory of the Republic of Moldova illustrates the cultural dynamics of the region during the Early Iron Age and a fundamental shift in the vector of cultural influences from east to west. The amber bead strand comprises 16 whole beads and five fragmentary ones. They have an elongated biconical shape and vary in size. The beads are brown-reddish in color; their lengths range from 1.1 to 3.1 cm, widths from 0.6 to 1.4 cm, thicknesses from 0.6 to 1.1 cm, and the perforation diameter ranges between 0.2 and 0.3 cm. Amber beads appear in several bronze hoards dated to the Late Bronze Age in the eastern half of Slovakia and in Transdanubian Hungary. Parallels are also known from the Cioclovina Cave in Romania. With the onset of the Iron Age, amber items disappear from the Carpathian Basin for approximately 300 years, reappearing alongside the arrival of Scythian elements. The bronze hoard discovered at Nisporeni is dated to the HaA2-HaB1-2 interval (1050/1000 - 800/750 B.C.).
Certaines considerations concernant le latin de Dacie
Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. III [XVIII], nr. 1, Arheologie. Istorie Antică
Simultanément avec la transformation de Dacie en province romane, celle-ci a été exposée à un vaste processus de romanisation, ainsi en peu de temps, la population de la province a appris la langue latine, qui est devenue la langue de communication, étant donné l’amalgame ethnique cohabitant. Le latin littéraire a été connu par les hautes couches sociales, plus répandu étant le latin vulgaire, imprégné avec des fautes et des erreurs d’expression, à cause de plusieurs facteurs. La militarisation intense a résulté l’apparition dans la langue courante des notions militaires qui feront référence ultérieurement à des choses et des faits civiles. On peut distinguer le spécifique du latin de Dacie des inscriptions de n’importe quel genre, leur recherche étant indispensable pour l’étude des faits de langue. En lignes générales le latin de Dacie n’a été une langue isolée, mais elle s’est intégrée dans les limites de la langue parlée dans tout l’empire, de cette manière la communication de toutes les populations des provinces romanes étant possibles.
