This interim report covers three excavation campaigns (2000-2002) within the headquarters building (principia) in the central part of the Roman legionary fortress at Novae on the Lower Danube (Northern Bulgaria). Excavation was concentrated on the courtyard, the crosshall and the rear range of administrative rooms. The last stratigraphic observations made in Room Cz with a loess pit preceding construction works on the principia confirm the Flavian date of the building. To judge by the stratigraphy in the crosshall and by three statue pedestals of AD 430-432 the building was destroyed and went out of use in the forties of the 5th century. New details are added to the plan of Rooms Ez1-3, the corridors Dw and Dz and both short sides of the crosshall.
