Măgura Uroiului Project, Archaeological site and nature reserve near Simeria, Romania

The excavation site extends across a 300-meter tall rock outcrop, featuring steep escarpments facing the Mureș and Strei rivers with several plateaus at its base.

Archaeological investigations have revealed multiple settlements from the Bronze Age, Hallstatt period, and La Tene era, along with Roman villa remnants and World War II fortifications.

Researchers examine artifacts and structures to understand how ancient communities developed their social systems and interacted with the surrounding landscape over different time periods.

The archaeological site maintains regular excavation schedules and offers educational programs through partnerships with multiple research institutions and local organizations.

The discovery of Dacian scale armor at this location represents a distinct transitional form between lamellar and hanging scales, not found elsewhere in Romanian archaeological contexts.
