The Dacian Limes refers to a series of ramparts, fortifications, and forts along the frontiers of the Roman province of Dacia. This system originates in the early second century CE and includes several components: Limes Alutanus, Limes Porolissensis, Limes Transalutanus in Wallachia, so-called "Trajan's Walls", and the so-called "Constantine Wall".
