About

7km from the village of Jurilovca, in the place called Cape Doloșman, there are the ruins of the ancient Argamum fortress. Founded around 670-660 BC. by the Greeks from Miletus, the settlement was first called Orgame (the Greek name). After it was conquered by the Romans, it was renamed Argamum. Together with the fortification on Bisericuta Island, they guarded the entrance to a bay of the Black Sea or the Scythian Sea, as the Greeks called it at the time.
