In 106 AD, Tiberius Claudius Maximus, of the Roman army, captured a fugitive Dacian king Decebalus, just moments after the king committed suicide in order not to be captured alive and suffer the same humiliation as Vercingetorix. Maximus cut Decebalus' head and right hand and brought them on a shield to Emperor Trajan, who was camped at that time at this fortification.
