Line 59 ⟶ 75:
Excavations just outside the city revealed the ruins of a large [[Dacia]]n city, Petrodava, mentioned by Greek geographer [[Ptolemy]] in the 2nd century. The whole compound had its heyday between the first century BCE and the first century CE. Standing out is the citadel at [[Bâtca Doamnei]] which contains shrines resembling those identified in the [[Dacian Fortresses of the Orăștie Mountains|Orăștie Mountains]]. As far as the existence of a local leader is concerned, historians tend to suggest the identification of the Kingdom of Dicomes in the very political centre at Petrodava. The complex of strongholds without peer in [[Moldavia]] and [[Wallachia]] is evidence as to a powerful political and military centre both in [[Burebista]]’s time and in the period that preceded the reign of [[Decebalus]]. The settlement was documented in the 15th century as Piatra lui Crăciun, or Camena, a [[market town]].
The first urban settlements, which emerged under [[Petru I of Moldova|Petru I Mușat]] (1375–1391), were Piatra lui Crăciun, [[Roman, Romania|Roman]], and Neamț. The [[Neamț citadel]], whose documentary attestation dates back to 2 February
