Abstract

The archaeological excavations in Dyrrachium, today Durrës in Albania, are discovered data about some stratums during Roman Imperial Period. Dyrrachium was one of the most important cities in the ancient period in Albanian territory. It was inhabited by thousand citizens from VII century BC until now and its inhabitants were divided in different social categories in Roman Period. In this paper, we will mention some of these categories that are discovered in Durrës. With the data that we have, it is impossible to identify all stratums that have lived in Dyrrachium in I-IV century AD. The study has told us that Dyrrachium citizens were separated in three categories: the Upper, Middle and the Lower stratum. Every category was composed by groups with a particular social position in roman society in Dyrrachium.
