Ruínas Romanas de Milreu

Ruínas Romanas de Milreu
Opulenta villa do Império Romano ocupada durante a Antiguidade tardia e os primeiros tempos de domínio do Islão. Nos inícios do século IV era uma luxuosa residência senhorial, termas, lagares de azeite e de vinho e instalações agrícolas, revelador do estilo de vida de uma família de elevado estatuto social e político. Integra este conjunto um templo cristianizado no século VI e usado como cemitério no período islâmico até ao século X, que se mantém conservado até ao arranque das abóbadas Entre os achados arqueológicos encontram-se mosaicos de temática predominantemente marinha, mármores e cerâmicas diversas, estuques pintados e esculturas que decoravam os interiores e os jardins.

Opulent villa of the Roman Empire occupied during the late antiquity and the first times of the dominion of Islam. At the beginning of the 4th century it was a luxurious manor house, spa, olive oil and wine presses and agricultural facilities, revealing the lifestyle of a family of high social and political status. This complex includes a temple which was Christianised in the 6th century and used as a cemetery during the Islamic period until the 10th century, which has been preserved until the vaults were torn down. Archaeological finds include mosaics with a predominantly marine theme, marbles and various ceramics, painted stucco and sculptures which decorated the interiors and gardens.

I had presumed this was an oven as I used to use one that looked just like this in the south of France one summer when I worked in a Pizeria.(Pizzeria? Pizzaria? - I forget what it's called in French!)

Tenian una cultura fabulosa, pero antes de ellos hubo los fenicios por aqui, los tartessos… de que menos se sabe pero que parecen haber sido muy evoluidos, mas que después de la cristianisación..
