Thence, it describes the Mexican cases that have dealt with the matter commenting on reasoning that could serve as the root of problems. The reason: although the current rule is accurate, dicta exists that could lead future developments astray. The ultimate goal of this essay is therefore not only commenting but influencing the correct development of Mexican jurisprudence on the matter.
Flexibilização do Procedimento Arbitral
Authors: Carmona Carlos Alberto
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: The arbitral procedure is naturally more adaptable to the needs of the parties than the state civil procedure (ruled by the Code of Civil Procedure), due to the broader choices and faculties it allows to the parties involved in the litigation. The parties are authorized to choose the procedure they want to be applied by adhering to institutional rules or by creating a specific procedure, built to suit the case. The essay intends to explore the possibilities and the limits of the choices made by the parties and, moreover, tries to test the possibilities of the arbitrator to adopt techniques not explicitly encompassed by rules chosen by the parties.
Anotações Práticas sobre a Produção de Prova na Arbitragem
Authors: Pinto José Emilio Nunes
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: Since the factual matter have to be duly evidenced to allow the Arbitral Tribunal to take any facts into account, the article focuses, from a practical standpoint, on the production of evidence by any means provided by law. Although the observations are valid to both domestic and international arbitrations, the main purpose of the article is to incorporate into the domestic arbitral arena certain concepts usually utilized in international arbitratios. The article analyzes those aspects that have already been absorbed by domestic arbitration, but bring into discussion those other that deserve to be discussed until such time may be used since, in all cases, the main concern is to secure effectiveness of the evidentiary phase of the proceedings and, generally, to save time and costs related to arbitral proceedings.
A Independência e a Imparcialidade do Árbito e o Dever de Revelação
Authors: Lemes Selma Maria Ferreira
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: This article addresses the importance of the arbitrator duty of disclosure related to issues which could affect his or her independence and impartiality. It studies the concept of confidence as criteria to be appointed arbitrator. The arbitrator has to pay attention to ethical rules and his/her duties as arbitrator. This legal duty has inside a strong ethical component which sustains the arbitrator activity. The transparency - as an arbitrator duty - derives from the concept of confidence. Thus, lacking of disclosure of important and widely known fact or circumstance can affect the parties' confidence. The lacking of disclosure could be considered a lacking of the due process of law and defense, because if the part had known this fact, he would have challenged the arbitrator. This article stresses about correct and reasonable handling of this subject and avoid misunderstanding. This article refers to IBA Rules, Ethical Codes and comment issues of international and domestic case law.
Brasil e Infraestrutura: Atualização do Direito da Empresa e da Arbitragem. Primeiras Abordagens
Authors: Silva Eduardo Silva da
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: The law of companies integrates a business law model (Miguel Reale) that is characterized by the constant renewal in front of the facts of the economic reality. Issues related to the protection of the environment, to the law of petroleum, to the law of insurances and sports events that will happen in Brasil, in a certain way, modify today's views of commercial regulation. Arbitration is the natural mechanism of superation of impasses in the law of companies and needs to be able to admit demands on such themes, since they can definitely determine the conformation of the economic and commercial scenario in Brazil in the next few years and decades. The present article is the first of a series to contribute to the exam of such inter-relationships and has the goal of reflecting about the way that this aggiornamento can be processed.
A competência-competência no novo Código de Processo Civil: decisão arbitral como pressuposto processual negativo
Authors: Neto João Luiz Lessa
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT: This paper focuses at the competence-competence rule in Brazil, especially the consequences of the New Civil Procedure Code in the matter (Federal Law 13.105 of 16 March 2015). The New CPC adopts a multi-door Court-House Model and creates a system of Court-annexed ADR. As for arbitration, the New CPC chose not to make any substantial change in the Brazilian Arbitration Act. However, the article 485, VII, of the New CPC is substantially different from its predecessor, article 267, VII, of the CPC of 1973. The new article clarifies that the arbitrator has a temporal precedence to decide about his own jurisdiction and if the arbitrator decide that he has jurisdiction to hear a given case the judge should stay any court proceedings about the same subject. The judge can only decide, in a prima facie basis, about the arbitrator’s jurisdiction if the arbitrator has not done so yet. This change is important as it settles the current debate about the text of the article 8 of the Arbitration Act.

Tutelas provisórias emitidas pelo Poder Judiciário brasileiro em apoio à arbitragem
Authors: Pugliese William Soares , Nalin Paulo
Published: March 2022

Abstract: This article deals with the relationship between the temporary reliefs and arbitration, with special focus on the innovations of the new Code of Civil Procedure and the changes in the Arbitration Act. In order to do so, first, a brief summary of the subject of temporary reliefs by the new Code of Civil Procedure is made, which is applicable to national and eventually international arbitrations. Secondly, the paper examines the recent changes of the Arbitration Law, whose new text establishes two phases, with two competent authorities for the granting of early reliefs: before the arbitration is instituted, the request is addressed to the courts; after the constituted arbitration, the request is directed to the arbitrator. At the end, an examination of the applicability of such devices is carried out and, also, decisions of the Brazilian courts on the subject are analyzed.

A Necessidade de Preparação do Advogado para o Avanço da Mediação no Brasil
Authors: Lima Leandro Rigueira Rennó , De Castro Viana Ana Luiza
Published: March 2022

As a result of the crisis experienced by the Judiciary System, mediation has increasingly stood out as an appropriate method of conflict resolution. In Brazil, this method called even more attention after important laws that came into force, highlighting its importance for the current concept of access to justice. However, the culture of litigation developed in our country and the law courses focused on adversarial methods became obstacles to the proper training of legal practitioners. Considering the new reality involving contemporary advocacy, it is evident the need to overcome this adversarial culture by changing the mentality and the preparation of these professionals. From this perspective, the present article aims to demonstrate that the development of a lawyer’s collaborative posture is essential for achieving satisfactory results in mediation. Consequently, the possible lack of knowledge, preparation, and specific skills may represent an obstacle to the advancement and diffusion of mediation in Brazil
Privilege in international arbitration: what are the trends?
Authors: Caroit Eugenie , Guerra Paloma Garcia
Published: March 2022

Privilege-related issues are likely to arise in international arbitration procedures, as these often involve actors from a variety of legal backgrounds. No international standard of privilege exists, and thus arbitration tribunals have had no option but to identify standards applicable to the specific issues of privilege on a case by case basis. While privilege in international arbitration is frequently discussed among commentators, measures taken to mitigate the lack of guidance to tribunals have been minimal. This article seeks to identify trends in international arbitration regarding privilege-related issues. To this end, this article examines both commercial and investment cases, and reviews recently published doctrine on the subject to take stock of the way privilege-related issues are dealt with in practice. First, the article starts by looking at the instances in which privilege issues arise. Second, it looks at how arbitral tribunals determine the standard applicable to privilege claim. Third, the article also looks at how arbitral tribunals define different types of privilege. Fourth, it tries to identify the practical proposals made by tribunals to manage issues of privilege. Finally, the article provides a few concluding remarks.

Privilege; standard of privilege; IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence; legal advice privilege; work-product privilege; litigation privilege; deliberate process privilege; cabinet privilege; document production; privilege waiver.
Delineations of Governance through Islam in Nascent Pakistan: Department Of Islamic Reconstruction and Islamic Law Commission
Authors: Ahmed Mansoor , Mustafa Ghulam , Khan Muhammad Sajid
Published: March 2022

After the creation of Pakistan, the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan adopted the 1935 act as its constitution until an indigenous constitution was to be drafted by it. The first institution set up as a governmental body to recommend the measures to make society Islamic at provincial level was ‘Department of Islamic Reconstruction’ in 1947 while the first constitutional body provided by the 1956 constitution was Islamic Law Commission. This paper will attempt to contour the working of both these two constitutional bodies and the findings of this paper will help manifest the approach of the later governments that provided Advisory Council of Islamic Ideology (1962) and Council of Islamic Ideology (1973) in later years. By skimming through Assembly debates it will conclude that the establishment of the Islamic Laws Commission by the 1956 constitution manifests the governmentality by the then governments to develop a web around the ulema, Simultaneously the ulema also wanted their future role in the governmental policy making.
Embriaguez ao volante e (im) possibilidade de perda da garantia securitária na jurisprudência brasileira
Authors: Queiroz Fausto de Medeiros Maria Theresa
Published: March 2022

A pesquisa pretende analisar qual é o entendimento do Superior Tribunal de Justiça Brasileiro (STJ) acerca do agravamento do risco do contrato de seguro de automóvel, por embriaguez, independentemente de terceiro, e a (im)possibilidade da perda da garantia securitária. Preliminarmente, fez-se uma breve revisão dos princípios da função social do contrato, boa-fé objetiva, e do instituto do contrato de seguro, destacando suas principais nuances e conceitos basilares. Seguidamente, à luz da principiologia contratual contemporânea, analisou-se um caso paradigmático, realizando, também, um paralelo com entendimentos doutrinários e jurisprudenciais anteriores, e conjecturando possíveis desdobramentos distintos para o caso. Concluiu-se que, no entendimento do STJ, a mera constatação de embriaguez ao volante, inclusive por culpa de terceiro, pode gerar a perda da garantia securitária, sendo ônus do segurado provar a inexistência de nexo causal relacionado ao agravamento do risco. A metodologia da pesquisa é documental, bibliográfica, doutrinária e qualitativa.

! is study deals with the negotiations between Romanian governement and Romanian diplomats on one hand and the diplomacy of the Entente on the other hand in the year 1915, during Romanian neutrality in the First World Confl agration. In fact, we attempted to underscore the the discussions between Romanian government and the French and Russian authorities on the topic of the Romanian rights regarding Romanian territories under the rule of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. As a result of these negotiations the Entente had to acknowledge the Romanian rights on Transylvania, Banat, Bucovina and Maramureş. ! e hard diplomatic eff orts of the Romanian men of state were designed to obtain the borders considered as essential in order to secure the protection of the country.At the very beginning the negotiations were very diffi cult because the Entente refused to agree all claims of the cabinet from Bucharest. ! e discussions became even more diffi cult because Romania had to deal directly with the Russians. ! e authorities from Petrograd hardly accepted teh Romanian wishes. ! e Governement leaded by Ion I. C. Brătianu insisted that Russia should admit the settlement of the Romanian border on Prut river. ! e President of the Romanian Council of ministers believed that the natural borders were better and, of course, more suitable than the conventional borders. First, Petrograd agreed the settlement of the frontier on Siret river. But in the end, due to the eff orts of the Romanian diplomacy and to friendly attitude of the Quai d’Orsay and of the Government from Paris, the Russians had to approve the Romanian claim during the summer of 1915.In Transylvania and Banat, Brătianu’s government intended to settle as frontiers the rivers Tisa and respectively Danube. Romania’s wish was to receive all the region of the Banat of Timișoara. Initially, agreed that Romania should obtain only a part of Torontal district. The rest of this zone was to be given to Serbia. Later, the French and Russian governments approved the cession of the whole district to Romania.Finaly, France and Russia consented to give to Romania all the region of Banat. So they answered gradually to the Romanian claims. Thus, the two parts, the Entente and Romania reached a modus vivendi after a long diplomatic activity.Analysing the evolution of the events, we must also underscore the important role of the French diplomacy. Many times, the French helped Romania to receive from Russia all that Brătianu and his ministers asked for. So, sometimes the French diplomats acted as genuine defenders of the national and territorial Romanian interests.

The Bronze Age and Dacian Fauna from New Excavations at Pecica–“Șanţul Mare” / Fauna în epoca bronzului și epoca dacică în lumina noilor cercetări arheologice de la Pecica–“Șanţul Mare”
Authors: Nicodemus Amy
Published: March 2022

Recent excavations at Pecica Şanţul Mare from 2006-2009 have produced a large and representativefaunal assemblage from Dacian and Bronze Age contexts. In both periods, livestock husbandry was by far themost important source of meat, with hunting and trapping game, fishing, and collecting mollusks contributingsecondarily. However, there are significant differences between Iron and Bronze Age animal economies.Dacian animal husbandry was centered on pig rearing. A substantial number of the pigs were sucklings,suggesting the presence of a relatively specialized, rapid-turnover husbandry system of locally produced meat.Smaller numbers of caprines and cattle were also raised, both being used primarily for meat rather than dairy, wool,or traction. Horses and chickens are infrequent. Few game mammals were consumed but there are a fair numberof fish, particularly carp, and many freshwater mussels.The Bronze Age population at Pecica were similarly reliant on animal husbandry, but were far less focusedon a single domesticate. In general, caprines were the most common livestock, followed closely by pigs andcattle. There is no evidence of specialized secondary products production. Large game hunting was moreimportant than in the Iron Age and fishing was less common. Several important changes occurred during theBronze Age occupation. More high value livestock are being produced in the earlier D/E habitation layers,particularly horses. Through time, smaller-bodied livestock like caprines and pigs become more common, asdo low-ranked wild resources.

Date genealogice şi prosopografice referitoare la familia Cornea-Barbu de Ileni (sec. XVII – XX) / Genealogical and Prosopographical Data Regarding Cornea-Barbu of Ileni Family (17th – 20th Centuries)
Authors: Mitu Sorin
Published: March 2022

The paper is presenting some historical data concerning a Romanian family, originary from Ileni, a small village near Făgăraş. In 1628, Oprea Cornea, a boyar from Ileni, was ennobled by Prince Gabriel Bethlen of Transylvania. During the following four centuries many members of this family played an important role in the history of their communities, as local nobles, priests, lawyers or officials. The main branch of the family is still in existence, living in Ileni. Another branch of the Cornea-Barbu family established itself in the Arad County at the end of the 18thcentury. The saga of this family provides precious information regarding the history of the Romanian élites in Transylvania, during the modern period.
Aspecte diplomatice privind recunoaşterea internaţională a independenţei depline a Romaniei / Diplomatic aspects concerning the recognition of the International Romanian State Independence
Authors: Moţ Teodora-Daniela
Published: March 2022

e proclamation of independence (May 9/21, 1877) represented a decisive moment in the evolution of modern Romania, a prerequisite for the Romanian state unity. While the international status of Romania had been established by the 1856 Treaty of Paris, its independence had to be recognized by the seven signatory state powers whose reactions have varied according to their position concerning the „Eastern Question”. e proclamation of Romanian State Independence wasn’t well received by Europe, being accomplished without its will and even contrary to its interests due to the fact that the emancipation of small European peoples tendency, carried out without the consent of the great powers, was not well-regarded. e Romanian separation from the Ottoman Empire was an act of great courage, especially that this was implying the transformation of the whole European Political map. Although in Berlin, both Romania, as well as the other South-Eastern European states, have managed to obtain only small parts of their solicitations, the recognition of the independence of Romania, Serbia and Montenegro and the signi"cant improvement of the situation of the Bulgarians, through the creation of the Autonomous Principality of Bulgaria, had great importance. e recognition of the Romanian State Independence brought a new international statute, thus becoming both subject of international a#airs, as well as a matter of international law. is meant that Romania received, at least theoretically, legal equality with the other sovereign states, no state having the right to interfere in the a#airs carried out by the Romanian state, both internally, as well as externally. e Romanian diplomacy, enlivened by a deep patriotism, defended with dignity the interests of the tiny state which was representing in front of the diplomats of the great powers of the time, exponents of an unfavorable or even hostile foreign policy towards the small and medium-sized countries.

Roman Coins in Sarmatian Graves from the Territory of Banat (2nd-4th centuries AD)
Authors: Grumeza Lavinia
Published: March 2022

Coins are to be found in graves from the Tisa river basin, starting with the end of the 2nd century – beginning of the 3rd century AD. Currently 20 necropolises or places with funerary remains are known in the historical territory of Banat. We notice that coins appear mostly in rich, male graves, where the deceased enjoyed a special funerary treatment; sometimes rites that belong to the eastern Sarmatian world were practiced. us, the presence of the coin is closely connected to the status and importance of the deceased inside his group of origin.As for the practice of putting “Charon’s obolus” it is impossible to state with certainty if the Sarmatians knew and practiced this custom. It is possible that some groups of Sarmatians knew the symbolical “payment” for passage in the after-world and to fulfill the necessary rituals by offering a coin. We especially refer here to necropolises from the end of the 2nd century – 3rd century AD, where we have the majority of Roman imports, graves with coffins and where we often find a coin. Starting with the 2nd century in the Roman Empire the cults of different gods and spirits intertwine resulting an inhomogeneous syncretic amalgam. It is on this background that we register a major increase of superstitions inside different layers of the society and a spread of popular beliefs. For sure part of these beliefs and superstitions from the boundaries of the Empire, along with exported goods and ended up in the Sarmatian Barbaricum, a territory in between Roman provinces.
Studiul materialului faunistic descoperit în urma cercetărilor arheologice preventive din Piața Sfântu Gheorghe de la Timișoara.

Authors: Bălășescu Adrian , Radu Valentin , Draşovean Florin
Published: March 2022

La faune étudiée provient des fouilles archéologiques préventives effectuées dans la place Sfântu Gheorghe (Saint George) à Timișoara (département Timiș) en 2013 (novembre et décembre) et 2014 (janvier-mars).Le matériel faunique provient de plusieurs niveaux stratigraphiques (culturels) notés du plus ancien au plus récent avec les dénominations Médiéval III (M III), Médiéval II (M II) et Médiéval I (M I) pour la période pré-ottomane (XVe et XVIe siècles mais en avant de 1552) et Olane II (O II), Olane I (O I) pour la période ottomane (1552 – première moitié duXVIIIe siècle) et d’une série de structures archéologiques (complexes – C et fosses – G) qui sont décrites dans les rapport réalisés par le collectif de chercheurs qui ont effectué ces fouilles.La faune analysée est très variée. Le spectre de faune est en effet composé de poissons, reptiles, oiseaux et mammifères domestiques et sauvages. Ces résultats montrent l’intérêt des habitants de la cité tant pour l’exploitation des animaux domestiques que pour la chasse sporadique dans la région avoisinante ou pour les échanges commerciaux avec d’autres communautés. Ceci démontre la connexion de la cité avec la vie économique régionale et européenne au cours de la période pré-ottomane1.Notre démarche scientifique archéozoologique nous permet d’affirmer que l’exploitation des bovins et des caprinés était très importante pour les communautés humaines de la cité de Timișoara. La conquête ottomane a conduit à des modifications dans la diète des habitants, qui se traduisent par une diminution de l’importance du cochon et une augmentation du poids des caprinés au détriment des bovins. Nous avons également mis en évidence la présence du chameau (niveaux médiévales I et II) et du bison d’Europe (en O II) pour la première fois dans le Banat médiéval.Une autre découverte importante est l’identification de restes de dinde dans les niveaux médiévales I et II, un oiseau introduit en Europe après la conquête espagnole de l’Amérique à la fin du XVe siècle et considéré en Roumanie comme exotique avant la période ottomane. La dinde sera élevée dans des fermes à partir du début du XVIIe siècle2 et ne deviendra une espèce domestique commune, au même titre que la poule, le canard ou l’oie, qu’au XVIIIe siècle3.L’identification de restes de la morue de l'Atlantique dans les niveaux médiévaux (M I), alors que cette espèce est également exotique dans cette région du sud-ouest de la Roumanie, montre enfin l’existence de relations commerciales actives et rapides avec le nord de l’Europe à cette période. Le XVIe siècle est marqué par le début de la consommation industrielle de cette espèce de poisson très appréciée dans l’ouest et le nord de l’Europe.
Profan vs. sacru la Sarmizegetusa Regia / Profane vs. Sacred at Sarmizegetusa Regia
Authors: Opreanu Coriolan Horațiu
Published: March 2022

In a former study published in the present yearbook (2015), the author reopened the interpretation of the archaeological structures unearthed at Grădiștea Muncelului 65 years before. He challenged that time the traditional explanation which considered them as sanctuaries. After criticizing the old theory (which was not based on any direct archaeological evidence), he proposed a more rational functionality of the rows of round stone-bases: they were the bases supporting an upper floor of the wooden buildings on top, elevated from the soil-level, being used as store-buildings, mainly for stockpiling cereals’ supplies necessary for the numerous community from Sarmizegetusa Regia to survive in a harsh mountain climate during the six months cold season. The author also provided as analogies prehistoric timber buildings, Roman timber and stone horrea, all using the same principles, but also mediaeval and modern granaries from Spain, or Britain with the same design and function.The present new approach was considered necessary by the author to emphasize the methodological background of the subject. He continues his previous demonstration opening to the reader the work-laboratory which led him to the conclusion the ancient basements found at Sarmizegetusa Regia belonged initially to profane and not sacred buildings. For that he describes the criteria established by the European and American prehistoric archaeology to identify a sacred building and cites several important contributions to the archaeology of ritual. Laying these criteria upon the archaeological information and evidence we have from the buildings from Sarmizegetusa Regia no one can be surely found. The conclusion cannot be other than they were not building with sacred significance.The author also contradicts the hypothesis that some golden coin hoards and bracelets were hidden in antiquity at Sarmizegetusa Regia with ritual intention. He supports the idea they belonged to the Dacian royal treasure of Burebista, taking into consideration the great quantity of golden coins of the same type and the great number of golden unused bracelets. He also rejects the idea of the existence of an imaginary holly mountain at Sarmizegetusa Regia which was considered by other scholars as the main reason of the establishment there of the royal residence during the 1st century BC and of the development of the settlement toward an urban aspect and size. The author proposes instead as the main factor of urbanization the fight of the Dacian aristocracy to take control of the iron ore resources in the area, as proved by the numerous forges, kilns and iron tools hoards found at Sarmizegetusa Regia. At the end the author explains why his explanation is more credible than the old one, enumerating the criteria to arrive to the best explanation in archaeology.

Published: March 2022

Așezările civilie care apar, funcţionează și se dezvoltă lângă castrele auxiliare s-au constituit de-a lungul deceniilor în direcţii explicite de cercetare. Situaţia acestor așezări aferente castrelor din provincia romană limitrofă Dacia Porolissensis este încă la un nivel incipient și speculativ. Prezentul studiu cuanti&că o serie de cercetări perieghetice întreprinse în zonele așezărilor civile de lângă castrele auxiliare de la Buciumi (com. Buciumi), Românași (com. Românași), Brusturi-Romita (com. Creaca) respectiv Tihău (com. Surduc). Deși pentru &ecare dintre ele există informaţii mai mult sau mai puţin relevante despre localizarea lor, lipsa unei cercetări intensive de suprafaţă cât și o cartare a extensiei ceramicii au fost motivele pentru care ne-am propus, în această primă fază, reluarea problematicii. Agricultura intensivă practicată în toate cazurile menţionate ne-a facilitat cercetarea de teren, &ind în &nal identi&cate perimetrele teoretice ale acestor vici militares. Cartările au fost făcute utilizând un GPS RTK Hi-Target V90, &ind înregistrate în totalitate concentraţiile de ceramică observabile la suprafaţă, utilizând un sistem de griduri. Pe baza punctelor obţinute s-au calculat în a doua fază densităţile acestor concentraţii de fragmente ceramice, obţinând astfel modele geostatistice bazate pe densitatea materialului. Nu în ultimul rând, suprafaţa astfel identi&-cată a fost supusă unor procedee de fotogra&ere aeriană pentru a obţine ulterior modele digitale 3D ale terenului, cu un grad de &delitate ridicat, cât și pentru a încerca identi&carea, pe cât este posibil, a noi structuri pe baza diferenţei de elevaţie. Limitele metodelor sunt evidente, ele reprezentând strict distribuţia materialului pe suprafaţa așezărilor și modelarea 3D a suprafeţelor cercetate.

Shears are commonly found in La Tène burials from the Carpathian Basin. The earliest such finds known in Europe date from the early 4th century BC Mediterranean cultural milieu. Towards the end of the same century they are adopted by the La Tène communities, where their morphology and meaning in the funerary process is changing. The purpose of these tools during the burial ritual seems to be similar to the one played by the swords. This fact can be deduced from several treatments that were applied to them like: position in the grave, similar decoration as some of the weapons or deliberately mutilation of the objects.
Dr. Elie Miron Cristea – patriarh şi personalitate politică / Dr. Elie Miron Cristea – patriarch and political personality
Authors: Deheleanu Adrian
Published: March 2022

During the Hungarian domination of Transylvania, Romanian priests, the Orthodox ones as well as the Greekcatholics – were strongly involved in the struggle for the defense of the Romanian national and for the union of this historic province with the mother country, Romania. The priest Miron Cristea was an emblematic personality of political militancy, on a national field. After the Great Union of December 1, 1918, Miron Cristea had to take the most important political positions in the Romanian state: member of the Regency (July 1927 – June 1930) and Chairman of the Council of Ministers (February 10, 1938 – March 6, 1939).Miron Cristea was an excellent leader of the Romanian Orthodox Church, who has linked his name that not only was the first patriarch, but also for his contributions in the field of theology, monastic life organization etc. He was involved in the Romanian state politics in the difficult moments of Romania’s existence, with the hope that through his balance spirit he will succeed to end the disputes, to introduce an atmosphere of normalcy in the Romanian society. Unfortunately, his good intentions were canceled by the interwar Romanian realities.

# e Air Vice Marshal Donald F. Stevenson was the Head of the British Section in the Romanian Allied Control Commission [hereafter ACC], controled by the Soviet representatives, from the autumn of 1944 until the autumn of 1947; the War Offi ce and the Foreign Offi ce also called him during the activity in Romania with the title “Commissioner”; his military rank was equivalent to a two star General. According to the note prepared for the visit to his sovereign, King George VI, on the 13th of April 1945, his function was „the British representative on the Allied Control Commission and the Head of British Military Mission in Romania”. His character truly denoted the features of a gentleman and, because of that, he lacked the ability for compromises in politics. Stevenson had been Air Aide-de-Camp to King George VI (1939–1940).# e study was based on Foreign Offi ce microfi ches that were analysed at the Romanian National Archives. Stevenson reported to War Offi ce, but in most cases War Offi ce sent copies to Foreign Offi ce; the British Political Representative in Romania was a diplomat and reported to Foreign Offi ce. Concerning the name “Romania”, British spelt “Roumania” and the Americans “Rumania”.

Despre unele sincronisme de la sfarsitul neoliticului tarziu si inceputul eneoliticului timpuriu din Banat siTransilvania. O abordare Bayesiana a unor date absolute publicate de curand si republicate recent / Certain Syncronisms Between the End of the Late Neolithic and the Beginning of the Early Eneolithic in Banat and Transylvania. A Bayesian Approach to Published Absolute Dates
Authors: Draşovean Florin
Published: March 2022

The study analyses the syncronisms between the cultures of the late Neolithic and the early Eneolithic from Banat and Transylvania, based on the Bayesian models of the 14C data gathered from Uivar-Gomilă, FoeniCimitirul Ortodox, Orăştie-Dealul Pemilor, Cerişor-Cauce and Alba Iulia-Lumea Nouă. By comparing the absolute data with the stratigraphical situation of these sites, it has been concluded that the genesis of the Turdas culture takes place during the Vinca C2 phase, with the help of some elements from Banat at that time. Also, the Turdas II phase cannot be placed earlier than Vinca C2/C3, while Turdas III is contemporary with Vinca C3-D and ends with the arrival of the Foeni group in Transylvania. Due to its new chronological position, the Foeni group may have contributed not only to the genesis of the Petresti culture, but also that of the Arisud-Cucuteni culture.
Districtele medievale din Banat în viziunea lui Vicenţiu Grozescu / The Romanian Medieval Districts in Banat in the View of Vicenţiu Grozăvescu
Authors: Ardelean Radu
Published: March 2022

Vicenţiu Grozescu was born at Comloșu Mare (Banat) and was a priest for 34 years, first at Sânnicolau Mare,and then at Lugoj, where he was Greek-Catholic arch-priest. He was one of the founders of the RomanianNational Party and a prominent member of ASTRA. He published numerous studies in history in which hedealt with issues of medieval history, most prominently the problem of medieval districts. In his discussionof medieval districts, Grozescu brings arguments as to the early presence of the Romanian population on theterritory of Banat. Despite errors in information and certain forced interpretations of historical facts, VincenţiuGrozescu remains a romantic historian contaminated by positivistic influences, being one of the precursors ofmodern Romanian historiography in Banat.

Authors: Ciuruşchin Miodrag
Published: March 2022

At the Peace Conference in Paris, the Romanian contingent fought for recognition of the union of Transylvaniaand undivided Banat with the Romanian Kingdom, with the support of French and Italian public opinion. Still,in February 1919, rumors were spread that the Banat region would be divided between Romania and Serbia. ] eRomanians revolted. So, in many rural and urban settlements from the Old Kingdom or from the Romanianprovinces that were united with Romania in 1918, many protest demonstrations were organized against theintention of the Great Powers to divide Banat. The Cultural League and the Banat League organized meetingsin Orăştie, Cernăuţi, Chişinău, Balţi, Kahul, Văleni-de-Munte, Ploieşti, Slatina, Bucureşti, Bârlad, Iaşi, Craiova,Turnu-Severin, Târgu-Jiu, Constanţa, Piatra-Neamţ, Sibiu, Baia Mare, Satu Mare, Beiuş, Gherla, Lugoj şiTimişoara and in many other places.At the people’s assemblies several resolutions were adopted in which they asked that the whole, undividedBanat become part of Romania. They were sent to the Romanian Government and to the Romanian contingentattending the Peace Conference in Paris with the purpose of demonstrating that the entire Romanian nationsupported the head of the Romanian contingent, I.I.C. Brătianu, who requested that the entire undivided Banatbecame part of Great Romania, on 1st February 1919. The large number of protest movements, in which tensof thousands of citizens from all the Romanian counties participated, was impressive. They all fought for anundivided Banat and for union with the Romanian Kingdom.Yet, on 1st August 1919 ,,the ”Big Four” decided that the Banat region would be divided between Romania,Yugoslavia and Hungary. The Great People’s Assembly in Timişoara in August 10th 1919 and the People’s Assemblyof Banat Swabians, on the same day marched to the highest point in the fight for the whole Banat, but the decisionof the Great Powers remained unchanged, to the disappointment and grief of the entire Romanian nation. ] egreater national interests of Romania and Yugoslavia prevailed. They imposed the reconciliation and resumedtheir traditional relations of friendship and neighborliness in the year 1921 when the two countries became alliesagainst their common enemies.
Tradiție şi continuitate în lumea demnitarilor români ai Banatului de Caransebeş şi Lugoj – Gârleştenii de Rudăria / Tradition and continuity in the world of the romanian oﬃcials from the Banat of Caransebeş and Lugoj – the Gârleşteanu of Rudăria family
Authors: Boldea Ligia
Published: March 2022

Amongst the noble Romanian families from the Banat of the Medieval and Early Modern ages, the Gârleşteanu of Rudăria family cut a distinctive figure through their almost permanent connection to local power centres. The reality is easily verifiable, as within one and a half centuries, from the end of 15th century to 1658, no less than 7 members of the family have held some of the highest offices in the Banat of Severin, later on in the Banat of Caransebeş and Lugoj: they have been bani of Severin, viscounts/ castellans of the Severin County and mayors of Caransebeş. An interesting model of ascension and fostering of the political influence was based on a series of remarkable personalities of the family, as well as on a material prosperity resulting from the real estate inheritance and from the incomes gathered in time through the carrying out of the held offices. The present article continues the history of the family during the ages of the Principality by treating the genealogic aspects and the involvement of its members in local politics.
O abordare Bayesiană a datelor AMS aparţinând epocii cuprului din Câmpia Panonică / A Bayesian Approach of the AMS Data from the Great Hungarian Plain’s Copper Age
Authors: Diaconescu Dragoș , Brummack Sven
Published: March 2022

The relative chronological schemes for the Early and Middle Copper Age in the eastern half of the Carpathian Basin show the following succession: Tiszapolgár culture, followed by the Bodrogkeresztúr culture and finally the Hunyadihalom culture. The AMS dates, recently obtained from Hungary, Slovakia and Romania, are considerably improving the absolute chronology of these three archaeological cultures. Bayesian approaches make it possible to show that the relative chronology is in complete agreement with the analysis of the 14C dates.
Sicrie şi amenajări funerare din lemn atestate la sarmaţii de pe teritoriul Banatului / Coffins and funerary wooden structures discovered on the Sarmatian territory of Banat
Authors: Grumeza Lavinia
Published: March 2022

Coffins are found in one third of Sarmatians graves in the Carpathian Basin (about 23 %), noticed by the remnants of wood or the presence of “S” or C” shaped iron clamps1. On the territory of ancient Banat coffins or other types of wooden funerary structures, are present in five unmarked necropolises (Szeged – Szőreg, homokbánya, Kiszombor B, Vojlovica – Pančevo, Foeni, Giarmata) and two barrow necropolises (Vizejdia/ Vizesd – Puszta and maybe Dudeștii Vechi/ Óbesenyő)2. Probably the number of coffins was higher, but due to environmental condition, robberies and incomplete documentation especially on barrow graves, the information concerning the funerary wooden structure are seriously lacking in details. Despite all of this, on the territory of ancient Banat, extremely varied wooden structures have been documented: box shaped coffi ns, possibly even burial chambers (at Vizejdia), coffi ns made out of thee trunks (closed with “S” and “C” shaped iron clamps) and funerary stretchers, on which the deceased was placed for transportation and, ultimately, buried with it3. All this diff erent wooden arrangements refl ect various infl uences: eastern remnants, roman funerary rites, but also local traditions, all of which give us clues towards the complexity of funerary rites and the diff erences within the Sarmatians tribes settled in Banat.
