In the months of August - September, a new campaign of systematic archaeological research was carried out in the Grădiștea de Munte site - Sarmizegetusa Regia (Hunedoara county).
During the mentioned period, the excavations on the 9th terrace, in the perimeter of the sanctuary, were extended, where the vestiges of a temple of the alignment type were discovered in previous years. In the recent campaign, limestone bases and arrangements detailing the planimetry of the religious edifice were identified.
At the same time, information was obtained regarding the edifice from the first phase that ended in a fire and whose remains were spread over a very large area (hundreds of square meters).
The research was funded by the Hunedoara County Council and the Ministry of Culture, and the team was composed of archaeologists and students from the National History Museum of Transylvania, Babeş-Bolyai University, the Dacian and Roman Civilization Museum, the Mureş County Museum.
