Daphne was a Roman fortification inaugurated, most probably in 327, on the left bank of the Danube, across Transmarisca, in the delta of the Arges river. In 367, emperor Valens crossed the Danube at Daphne using a pontoon bridge. Chronicler George Kedrenos, recounting the fight between the Varangians of Sveinald (Sviatoslav) and Emperor Ioan Tzimiskes in 971, mentioned the existence of wheat and millet sowings in the regions on the left bank of the Danube, which proves that this area was inhabited by a sedentary population. Encircled in Durostor (today Silistra), the Varangian armies supplied themselves at night with these grains and fodder transported from the opposite bank of the Danube. The same chronicler wrote that: "there came to him (before the emperor) from Constantia and other for

  • Constantiana Daphne va ser una fortalesa romana inaugurada molt probablement l'any 327 al delta del riu Argeș, a la riba esquerra del Danubi, a Mèsia. En parlen Ammià Marcel·lí i Procopi de Cesarea. Constantí el Gran hi va fer construir un pont que duia fins a la fortalesa de Transmarisca, situada a l'altra riba del riu. En aquest lloc durant la guerra gòtica l'emperador Valent va aixecar un pont de pontons la primavera del 367 i l'exèrcit de campanya de Tràcia van travessar per atacar als teruings d'Atanaric, que atacaven als teruings de Fritigern, que s'havien convertit a l'arrianisme.

  • Η Κωνσταντιάνα Δάφνη ήταν βυζαντινή οχύρωση που εγκαινιάστηκε πιθανότατα το 327 στην αριστερή όχθη του Δούναβη, στη σημερινή Ρουμανία απέναντι από το , σημερινό Τουτρακάν της Βουλγαρίας, στο δέλτα του ποταμού . Το 367 ο αυτοκράτορας Ουάλης διέσχισε τον Δούναβη στη Δάφνη χρησιμοποιώντας μια πλωτή γέφυρα. Αναφέρθηκε από τον Αμμιανό Μαρκελίνο και τον Προκόπιο Καισαρείας. Η θέση του είναι άγνωστη, σήμερα πιστεύεται ότι η πιο πιθανή θέση του είναι στο Γκραντίστεα, ενώ μερικοί ιστορικοί πιστεύουν ότι η Δάφνη είναι το σημερινό . (el)

The same chronicler wrote that: "there came to him (before the emperor) from Constantia and other fortresses built beyond the Istru, messengers asking forgiveness for the evil deeds committed, surrendering together with those fortresses; receiving them gently, the emperor sent men to take possession of the cities and sufficient armies to guard them.” It was mentioned by Ammianus Marcellinus and Procopius of Caesarea. The most probable position is at Grădiștea at south west of Ulmeni. Still some historians believe that the Daphne was the new name of the Sucidava- Celei. (en)
