Triphulum[7] was a fort in the Roman province of Dacia.[1][2] It was built in the 2nd century AD.[1][2] Archaeological research also identified the nearby vicus.[1][2] The castra and the nearby settlement were both abandoned in the 3rd century AD.[1][2] The ruins of the fort are located in Orheiu Bistriței (commune Cetate, Romania).[1][2]
