Libida, Archaeological site in Slava Rusă, Romania.

The archaeological remains stretch across 24 hectares and include ancient city walls with 33 towers and three entrance gates at an elevation of 158 meters.

The Roman settlement evolved from a 4th century BC Getic settlement and flourished until the 7th century when Bulgar invasions led to its abandonment.

The excavation of a Christian basilica with three naves and a monastic complex reveals the religious transformation of the settlement during the late Roman period.

The site contains multiple sections open for archaeological research, including a Roman necropolis extending 2.5 kilometers from the city walls.

The discovery of bronze coins from Justinian I's era and a treasure of drachmas in 1916 confirmed the settlement's identity as ancient Ibida.
