Extract

Sacidava (Musait) lies on the right bank of the Danube in the Dobruja and a brick with the retrograde stamp I CIL, discovered in 1972, has already been reported. During the excavations of 1979 further epigraphic evidence of the presence of cohors I Cilicum at Sacidava was found, and it seems worth presenting this with a minimum of comment at this stage.
