trend of the Ecedea Swamp area. After the Dacian- Roman wars between Decebalus and Traianus, Ecedea Swamp area remained territory unoccupied by Romans. The free Dacians continued living together with the Germanic population (Boers), and fought together against the Romans. The number of the population in the area increased considerably during the second half of the second century AD, with the Vandals, a Germanic tribe, which arrived in the Ecedea Swamps during this period. Their origins are in Scandinavia, the Vandals reaching our area by crossing the territories north the Carpathians. During the existence of the Roman province of Dacia, the barbarian tribes (implicitly the ones in Cămin area) went through alternating periods of peace and flourishing trade with periods of war and incursions into the Roman Empire. The material culture of the free Dacians and of the Germanics took over a great number of Roman elements, through the Romanization (the “globalization” process of the time), while the archaic traditions and the ethnic elements of the material culture disappeared. Few discoveries on the territory of Cămin Commune are known from the migrations time, only one settlement being identified in the area of Crasna Bridge, dated to the VII-VIII centuries AD.
