The Administrative – Territorial Organisation and the Age of Settlements in the Area of Codru District. The geographical area of the District of Codru has been inhabited since ancient times, as archeological evidence has demonstrated, the oldest settlements dating back to the Neolithic, within an age range of 4500 and 2500 years. The area of the District of Codru was settled by free Dacians, as the Dacian coins found here give evidence. This microregion was not incorporated in the Roman province of Dacia. The arrival and departure of various peoples who ruled over this area have left their mark not only on locals’ life and history, but also on the administrative – territorial organization of the District of Codru. Successively, this area was organized into rural tribal communities, into principalities and voivodships (the microregion was part of the Voievodship of Transylvania), shires (during Hungarian rule), counties and plase (several communes forming a single administrative unit, in 1950), ministerial directorates (under Iuliu Maniu’s government in 1930s), into regions (made up of districts, towns and villages - called communes), finally, divided into counties, towns, communes and villages. All these changes the area of the District of Codru has undergone, together with all the various rulling of peoples coming and going across the ages have not altered the identity and authenticity of the inhabitants of the microregion called the District of Codru.

Keywords: age of settlements, administrative-territorial organization, the District of Codru.
