The study of epidemics, especially the ancient ones, has long eluded our scientists. And so, we have tried to use a different approach and different ways of studying the disastrous effects of such an epidemic, in the 2nd century A.D. The goal of this paper is to analyze aspects such as chronology, expansion, and the effects of the disease, and especially, to raise a question about its presence in the roman provinces of Dacia and Moesia Inferior. Whether the presence of a full scale epidemic can be argued, evidence of disturbance can be found by numerous means .In the end, such scientific approach on epidemics can hold valuable clues regarding the rise and fall of civilizations and empires.
