**Aliman** (Romanian pronunciation: [\[aliˈman\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Romanian)) is a [commune](/source/Commune_in_Romania) in [Constanța County](/source/Constan%C8%9Ba_County), [Northern Dobruja](/source/Northern_Dobruja), [Romania](/source/Romania). It includes four villages:

- Aliman

- Dunăreni (historical name: *Mârleanu* or *Mîrleanu* until 1968)

- Floriile (historical name: *Bac Cuius*, [Turkish](/source/Turkish_language): *Bakkuyusu*)

- Vlahii (historical name: *Vlahchioi*)

The territory of the commune also includes the former village of *Adâncata* (historical name: *Polucci*), at [44°9′0″N 27°52′57″E / 44.15000°N 27.88250°E / 44.15000; 27.88250](https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Aliman&params=44_9_0_N_27_52_57_E_), disestablished by Presidential Decree in 1977.

The [Dacian](/source/Dacia) fortress of [Sacidava](/source/Sacidava_(Moesia)) was located close to the village of Dunăreni.

According to [Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu](/source/Bogdan_Petriceicu_Hasdeu), in a hypothesis endorsed by [Iorgu Iordan](/source/Iorgu_Iordan), the name *Aliman* derives from the [Turkish](/source/Turkish_language) word for "German", *Alaman* or *Aleman*.[3]
