.

A Roman fresco from a former official dwelling was found to Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa, the capital of Roman Dacia, a team of foreign volunteers and students, led by archaeologists, but excavations to be stopped for lack of funds, the teams currently using resources own.

In the capital of Roman Dacia Traiana Sarmizegetusa Ulpia in Hunedoara, a Romanian team of archaeologists conducted their research with student volunteers from the United States, Britain, France and Romania.

Coordinate team of Romanian archaeologists, volunteers from abroad have made a unique discovery: a Roman fresco from a former housing official who lived in the century II.

"We made several important discoveries, including a unique Sarmizegetusa: a fresco preserved. In fact, there are walls of a room in the house of a Roman official who lived in Century II, covered with frescoes, and it was covered by another plaster and so has been preserved. It certainly is an official residence because it had water adduction, not everyone in those days could afford this luxury, "said the team of archaeologists, Ioan Piso.

According to him, home is under the Temple of Jupiter and the Triad of the Capitol of Sarmizegetusa.

"The importance of Sarmizegetusa findings is that despite the damage done not so kind as man, we managed to find this fresco, the first in this archaeological site. Sarmizegetusa also known stories about the frescoes. When I came to SAP here first, now about 30 years old the place told me that they saw their youth paint walls with angels and flowers. Perhaps with mythological scenes. All these were destroyed, but I am sure there are well-preserved houses, where can make such discoveries, "said Ioan Piso.

He argued that archaeological excavations are carried weight because it works only with volunteers, most of them come from USA, England, France.

"We have good luck with Romanian students of archeology, and volunteers from all over the world. They pay their own food and do not know how long we can rely on them. Some wine, others leave. How long and how much money they stand in the area. Ministry of Culture this year we allocated 50,000 lei. count on them, counted them and people in the village. 30 - 40 workers a day we had the locals, but funds were blocked because they are problems rules, the minister's signature, I do not know why. Like I said, self-financed students. When we had money, we go together. Thus do research in Romania, "he said.

In turn, an archaeologist in Bucharest said that excavations would be stopped for lack of funds.

"It works on a voluntary basis. We have students from the University" Babes-Bolyai "in Cluj, at the University of Bucharest and volunteers in the U.S., England and France. This year is difficult, especially because no money from the Ministry of Culture can reach us in time, that summer, because we can not work altcândva. I understand that's the problem with accessing amounts because they changed the method of payment of workers. For this reason we can not hire workers in the village and then volunteering and expertise in student transforms raw work. Young people work with dedication, but resources will diminish over time and believe that after August 6 will conclude excavations if the money comes from, "said Ovidiu authorities, an archaeologist at the National Museum of History Romania in Bucharest.

Volunteers have the money to remain in Sarmizegetusa until August 6, and in the end will hold Open Day in the archaeological site, so that tourists can see their discovery before the fresco to be moved to a museum.
