Can I add the web page for the museum in Deva that administrates these fortresses? They have lots of info for tourists to go there. O crandell 13:32, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Legal situation

"Today, treasure-hunters are searching the area, as Romania lacks legislation in this domain". - proof?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.58.162.28 (talk) 13:31, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See, for example http://antiquity.ac.uk/ant/084/ant0841028.htm. --Bejnar (talk) 18:57, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion

I removed the tag suggesting that the article be expanded using translation from the Romanian article. That article is seriously under sourced, and available sources such as Oltean, Ioana Adina (2007) Dacia: landscape, colonisation and romanisation and MacKendrick, Paul Lachlan (1975) The Dacian Stones Speak provide much better information. --Bejnar (talk) 18:57, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think those two books are great, but there is more to the Romanian article including the structure, sections, and more content, even if it needs sourcing. Would you agree? --Codrin.B (talk) 03:40, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
