history

In 2001, two silver coins from the Greek cities of Kyzikos and Miletus were found at “Movilele Dese”, near Sinoie . These are now in the coin collection of the Museum of History and Archeology in Constanța.

Other archaeological finds (tools and ceramic vessels) show that today's Sinoie was already settled in the Paleolithic . In the 7th century BC The place was settled by Greeks who carried on a brisk trade with the south. Ceramics from Miletus , Athens , Rhodes and Corinth were seized.

The Romans settled here in the first century AD . On the territory of today's village of Sinoie was the village "Vicus Quintionis", whose landlord was the Roman Quintio. The inhabitants of the village were "veterani et cives Romani et Bessi consistentes", as can be read from an inscription from the 2nd century AD, that is, Roman citizens and veterans as well as Bessi, a Thracian population group.

The village was run by two magistrates, one Roman and one Thracian . In 144 AD it was "Tiberius Saturninus" and "Bizienis", in 167 AD "Aelius Bellicus" and "Mucaporus Ditugenti" and in 177 AD "Iulius Florus" and "Derzenus Bitti". In financial matters the magistrates were assisted by a quaestor . This was a year Roman and the next year Bessi. In 167 AD the Roman "Claudius Ianuarius" was bailiff, in 175 AD the Thracian "Dotus Zinebti". In "Vicus Quintionis" there was an auditorium , according to a letter from Antoninus Pius . The place was abandoned in the 7th century, at the same time as the Histria fortress , when the Roman army and Roman administration withdrew from Dobruja .

Economy and culture

The economy is dominated by agriculture, the village has three grocery stores and a guest house for tourists.

The Sinoie Lake is located near the village as part of the Razim -Sinoie lagoon complex , which is part of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve . Similarly, not far from the village are the strictly protected areas of the Grindul Lupilor and Istria-Sinoie reserve , where the ruins of the ancient city of Histria are a tourist attraction.

The language of instruction at the school was initially Turkish and later Bulgarian . In 1880 there was a school with seven classes in Sinoie. In 1940, after the population exchange between Romania and Bulgaria, it was converted into a Romanian school.
