Slava Cercheză

The village and the name. It is not Slava Rusă.

Slava Cercheză, in full

Slava Cercheză is a village in the north of Tulcea County, beside Slava Rusă. They are two villages. One is Lipovan and has the Ibida fortress. This is the village whose name keeps the arrival of Circassians in the 1860s.

The Circassians (Adyghe) stayed here only a short time, as refugees from the Caucasus, and most left after 1878. We do not reconstruct costume, dance or a community that is no longer here. The toponym remains.

Today's village is lived in. Do not enter yards. Ibida fortress is read from the Slava Rusă sheet, not from here.
