The Alexis Project - Proiectul Alexis
Click on the photos to see an enlarged version
The Alexis Project is the work of a small group of people interested in preserving the prehistory and history of the Oltenia District of Romania, and increasing knowledge of this area of Romania, as well as other parts of Romania close by. The publications of this group give valuable insights into this area in the south west of Romania, on the tributaries of the Danube.
Proiectul Alexis reprezinta munca unui mic grup de romani interesati in conservarea preistoriei si istoriei regiunii lor si in acumularea de cunostinte despre aceasta zona. El da o imagine valoroasa a regiunii sud-vestice a Romaniei, pe afluentii Dunarii.
Adrian would like to introduce to you a new member of the NGO team, who joins our older friend, Roxy, the jumping frog. Her name is Aghata, and comes from a place Adrian dreams of visiting.
So, Aghata is ready to say 'Hi!'

This is a drawing by Maria Amelia Negut, the youngest member of the Alexis Project team, of Adrian and herself.
Adrian writes that this image should be on the website, so people can see how handsome he is!
This is a wonderful photograph of Adrian, taken by his son Alexandru at the end of a day of exploration of Bodaiesti Tell. It could only have been taken by an artist, and someone who knows and loves his subject deeply.
Adrian works so hard for his country, and devotes so much time and effort to Romania's history and prehistory.
Someday Adrian will be recognised more universally.

Adrian Gheorghe, leader of the group, writes:
In 2002 we started the private project 'Alexis' which aims to rehabilitate the historical sites in my geographical area. This region is situated in the North-western part of Oltenia, at the confluence of three rivers (Jiu, Motru and Gilort) and is 200 km2 in area.
Here I have identified and studied until the present day some items of the Paleolithic, ancient, modern or contemporary history:
All these objectives are either not homologated or are neglected by the Romanian archeological institutions mainly because they lack money. (ed: Homologation means to approve, especially to confirm officially)
The 'Alexis' project has as its first aim to gather as much information and material proof as possible which may be used in the identification and homologation of every objective and later these files and material proofs to be at the use of those qualified to do so.
We are a team of volunteers of different ages and professions, without any formal qualifications in this field, but having the strong desire to prove the existence in this area of a continuity of civilizations and cultures and to promote the above objectives in the whole world.
We strongly believe that if every individual would achieve through personal or collective effort a similar action, mankind would gain by understanding and building on a fascinating past.
We would like to mention that our efforts follow the Romanian laws and that we have a good collaboration with the National Museum of History (Professor Silviu Teodor), with the Museum of History of Oltenia (Archaeologist Exp.Dr.Arch. Dorel Petrus Bondoc, (Curriculum Vitae)), The Museum of Natural Science of Oltenia (Paleontologist Popescu Aurelian, (Curriculum Vitae) (Publications)), but the lack of funds has not yet allowed the achievement of our objectives.
Adrian Gheorghe, conducatorul grupului, spune:
In 2002 am initiat proiectul privat “Alexis” care are ca scop reabilitarea siturilor arheologice in regiunea mea. Aceasta zona este situate in Nord-vestul Olteniei, la confluenta a trei rauri (Jiu, Motru si Gilort) si are o suprafata de 200 de km2.
Aici am descoperit si studiat pana in prezent cateva artefacte apartinand paleoliticului, istoriei antice, moderne si contemporane.
Toate aceste obiective sunt ori neomologate, ori neglijate de catre institutiile arheologice romane, in mare parte din cauza lipsei fondurilor.(A omologa inseamna a aproba, a confirma in mod oficial).
Proiectul “Alexis” are ca prim scop acumularea a cat mai multe informatii si dovezi materiale posibile si omologarea fiecarui obiectiv, pentru ca mai tarziu, aceste dosare si dovezi materiale sa fie la dispozitia celor calificati pentru aceasta.
Suntem o echipa de voluntari de varste si profesii diferite, fara o calificare in acest domeniu, dar cu dorinta arzatoare de a demonstra existenta in aceasta zona a unei continuitati a civilizatiilor si a culturilor, si de a promova obiectivele mentionate mai sus in toata lumea.
Credem ca daca fiecare individ in parte ar ajunge prin eforturi personale si colective la o actiune similara, omenirea ar castiga intelegand si construind pe un trecut fascinant.
Am dori sa mentionam ca eforturile noastre urmeaza legile Romanesti si ca avem o buna colaborare cu Muzeul National de Istorie (Profesor Silviu Teodor), cu Muzeul de Istorie din Oltenia (Arheolog Exp.Dr.Arch. Dorel Petrus Bondoc (Curriculum Vitae)), Muzeul de Stiinte Naturale din Oltenia (Paleontolog Popescu Aurelian (Curriculum Vitae), (Publications)), dar lipsa fondurilor nu a permis inca atingerea scopurilor noastre.
We also mention that apart from the 'Alexis' projects (the rehabilitation of the historical sites from the river Jiu basin), we also have other projects regarding the rehabilitation of medical assistance in rural areas, the medical assistance of third age persons, and the preventing of HIV transmission.
Precizam ca pe langa Proiectul 'Alexis' (reabilitarea siturilor istorice din bazinul Jiului) mai avem si alte proiecte in legatura cu asistenta medicala in zona rurala, asistenta medicala a persoanelor de varsta a treia, si prevenirea transmisiei HIV.
