This topic is for dacian architecture.

These are commoners houses... but not just of them. They are found mostly in lower areas. They are simple houses, and their walls are made out of clay, which is put on simple a wooden structure. Sometimes, in case of small sanctuaries, the clay walls where decorated with a sort of stucco, but this was found only in 2 isolated cases as far as i know.

Here, reconstructed by Romanian archaeologists, images of Dacian houses.

Where there was little clay, sometimes walls where made of wood logs.


More elaborate buildings:



 
Dacian nobility, during the period of the Dacian Kingdom (88 BC - 106 AD), lived in tower-houses, as they are called. Sometimes, first level of these houses was made of stone blocks, while upper level of clay bricks. Sometimes, the roof was made not just of wood and straw like at simpler houses, but also of hellenistic tiling.

Yeah actually what he's posted ive seen before on a website, and those are really different time era buildings, as whats suggested on the page is the transition through a period of 1500 B.C. - some time A.D.


And while much of it is out of date, they do have a reoccuring theme, which is rectangular buildings, with slant roofs. Of course as stated, i've seen it before. Just would be nice to chance upon some new content though.
