here is a bit of a mystery it seems
this city is 6km x 4km
as big as
the main walls are 90m in cross section [30m ditch, 30m berm, 30m ditch] at there max
some pics/maps===============================
[note that the features are described as "romer schanze" - roman earthworks but they don't seem roman and something roman this large would be well recorded?]
[note: Atle near Zsadany]
some references where you would think you'd see it===========
watchout there are 2 cornestis [current name of commune] just as there are 2 zsadanys [old name of commune] in bekes county near bekesvar and this zsadany [aka cornesti, jadani, mezozsadany] in Temes county near temesvar ie. timisoara
could it be the city of attila which priscus visited?
some background reading=============================
