The Dacians (/ˈdeɪʃənz/; Latin: Daci, Ancient Greek:
Δάκοι, Δάοι, Δάκαι) were an Indo-European people, part of or related
to the Thracians. Dacians were the ancient inhabitants of Dacia, located in the
area in and around the Carpathian Mountains and west of the Black Sea. This
area includes the present-day countries of Romania and Moldova, as well as
parts of Ukraine, Eastern Serbia, Northern Bulgaria, Slovakia, Hungary
and Southern Poland.The Dacians spoke the Dacian language, believed to have
been closely related to Thracian, but were somewhat culturally influenced by
the neighbouring Scythians and by the Celtic invaders of the 4th century BC.
