Tabula Peutingeriana
Capidava is depicted in the form Calidava/Calidaua in Segmentum VIII of Tabula Peutingeriana (1st-4th century AD) on a Roman road between Axiopolis and Carsium.[5][6] The map provides accurate data on the distances between Axiopolis, Capidava and Carsium. These distances coincide with the distances between the present localities of Hinog - Capidava and Capidava - Hârșova. This is also verified by the discovery of military marking pillar at Seimenii Mici that indicates the distance of 18,000 feet (27 km) from Axiopolis to Capidava.[7]
Ancient times
The village Capidava is the site of the fortified Geto-Dacian center with the same name, Capidava.
After the Roman conquest of Dacia it became a Roman city and castra in the province of Scythia Minor (modern Dobruja).
Etymology
Capidava is a Getic toponym, meaning the "curve fortified settlement".[7]
