Abstract
The present article discusses the Getic fortress from Criveşti. Situated in a strategic location on a hill, it has an oval shape, approximately 190×120 meters. Archaeological materials allow it to be attributed to the period from 4th to 3rd centuries BC, and, therefore, it, at least in part, is a contemporary of other Getic fortress of the Moldavian Plateau. Our research is designed to shed more light on the chronology and importance of this fortress.
