postavját

Postavját is a former settlement in the county of Alba, Romania. It was located in the area now occupied by the commune of Soporu de Jos. The exact circumstances of the founding and abandonment of Postavját are not well-documented.

The name "Postavját" is believed to be derived from the Hungarian language, which was spoken by the local population until the mid-20th century. The settlement likely existed during the Hungarian monarchy period.

Historical records suggest that Postavját was part of the Hungarian territory until the Second World War, when it became part of Romania following the Treaty of Trianon. The settlement likely had a small population, mostly consisting of ethnic Hungarians.

The exact date of the abandonment of Postavját is unknown. The area around Soporu de Jos was likely affected by the forced assimilation policies of the post-war Romanian government. The most likely reason for the abandonment of Postavját was the migration of ethnic Hungarians to Hungary.

It is also possible that the settlement was abandoned as a result of natural disasters or economic decline. The surrounding region is prone to natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods.

While Postavját is no longer a inhabited settlement, it remains an important part of the region's cultural heritage. The legacy of Hungarian settlement in the area is still remembered and studied by local historians and researchers.
