The castra of Densuș was a fort in the Roman province of Dacia.[1] It was built by a Dacian settlement which had been founded before the Roman conquest of Dacia in 106 AD and continued to exist under Roman rule.[1] Neither the date of the erection of the fort, nor its abandonment by the Romans have been determined.[1] Its ruins are situated in Densuș (Romania).[1]
