In the year 2009, after the collapse of some salt mine galleries, the Ocnele Mari authorities decided to build a dam for retaining of the salt water. In this context was found a Roman archaeological site in the point named Downstream from the Dam. In this place we think that there may have been the Roman administrative center of the salt mines from the Ocnele Mari region. The most important building from this site was named L 12. It is a large stone building, 6,70 x 6,70 m, in which was found a large quantity and variety of roman objects. The coins found in the site are chronologically placed from Nerva to Antoninus Pius. It is possible that the end of the coins presence to be in the connections with some military events from the beginning of Commodus' reign. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
