Aedava

Aedava is an ancient Roman settlement in Bulgaria with remains of public baths, marketplaces, and residential structures. The excavations reveal how residents organized their daily lives through these interconnected spaces and facilities.

Aedava emerged as a local administrative center in the Roman province of Thrace and thrived during the empire's peak years. The settlement served as a key point for regional trade and communication between surrounding communities.

The discovered ceramic artifacts and tools at the excavation site reveal specific patterns of trade relations between Aedava and neighboring settlements.

Visitors should wear sturdy footwear since the ground is uneven and excavation work continues. Checking accessibility conditions beforehand helps ensure a safe and comfortable visit to the site.

The building structures here follow patterns distinctly different from other Roman settlements in Southeast Europe. These regional construction choices reveal how local builders adapted Roman techniques to their own traditions.
