Aizis (''Aixis'', ''Aixim'', ''Airzis'', ''Azizis'', ''Azisis'', ''Aizisis'', ''Alzisis'', ''Aigis'', ''Aigizidava()'', ''Zizis'', ) was a Dacian town mentioned by Emperor Trajan in his work ''Dacica''. Located at ''Dealul Ruieni'',〔(''Monografia localității Fârliug'' by Pr. Cristian Franț )〕 Fârliug, Caraș-Severin, Romania. One sentence surviving from ''Dacica'', in the Latin grammar work of Priscian, ラテン語:''Institutiones grammaticae'', says: ''inde Berzobim, deinde Aizi processimus'', meaning ''We then advanced to Berzobim, next to Aizi''.〔Exploratio: Military and Political Intelligence in the Roman World from the Second Punic War to the Battle of Adrianople by N. J. E. Austin, N. B. Rankov Routledge, 1995, ISBN 0415049458, ISBN 9780415049450〕 The phrase describes the initial itinerary march into Dacia by the Roman army After the Roman conquest of Dacia, a castrum gets built at Aizis. It is also depicted in the Tabula Peutingeriana, as ''Azizis'', on a Roman road network, between Bersovia and Caput Bubali. == Etymology == The place name Aizizi, located in the South West of Dacia has a root / radical containing the Bactrian "ait", Armenian “iz” ‘snake’ or better the Bactrian "azi" Armenian "ajts" 'goat'.〔“Les restes de la langue dace” by W. Tomaschek (Gratz University) in “Le Museon (Revue Internationale Volume 2)”, Louvain, 1883 (page 402)〕 The Romanian historian and archaeologist Vasile Pârvan also gives the meaning 'goat'. This Dacian name (mentioned also by Ptolemy as ) confirms the Dacian language change from Proto-Indo-European *g to z: Αίζισίς (Ptolemy) < *aig-is(yo) – ‘(place) with goats’ (Greek αίζ, αίγός goat) 〔E.C.
