Sucidava (Sykibid, Skedevà after Procopius of Caesarea, Σucidava after Vasile Pârvan, where Σ is pronounced "sh") was a Dacian and Daco-Roman city situated in Corabia, Romania, on the north bank of the Danube. It developed from the 270s AD and especially after the construction of Constantine's Bridge the northern side of which it protected.
