The battle of Aljubarrota (Museum) (En-Es)🧠🔬⚔️
In the year 1385 one of the bloodiest battles of the time was fought in Europe, it was the battle of Aljubarrota where the kingdom of Portugal collided with the army of Castile, it was for me the most important battle in Portugal because it defended its right to be an independent country and avoid being absorbed by its neighbors! The battle is remembered to this day because the Portuguese army only had 7,000 soldiers against 40,000 Castilian troops. In this post I will visit the museum of the battle of Aljubarrota to learn a little more about the key points of this fierce battle and what was Portugal's strategy to defeat the Spanish.🧠⚔️🚩

Science at the service of archeology📚🧠/ La ciencia al servicio de la arqueologia⚔️🚩
Archeology studies the material remains of societies and their interaction with the environment, the production of knowledge with aspects of the economic, social, cultural and biological nature of past populations! requires joint work with other sciences anthropologists from the University of Coimbra studied the bones of the combatants collected at the combat sites and the inhabitants who inhabited the land after the battle, all of which were found in the necropolis of the Temple of Sao Jorge, also the archaeologist zoologists studied the animal bones that were found in the pits and other parts of the battlefield! What was the results?⚔️🚩📚
La arqueologia estudia los vestigios de los materiales de las sociedades y su interaccion con el medio ambiente, la produccion del conocimiento con los aspecto de la naturaleza economica, social, cultural y biologica de las poblaciones del pasado! exige un trabajo conjunto con otras ciencias los antropologos de la universidad de Coimbra estudiaron los huesos de los combatientes recogidos en los sitios del combate y de los moradores que habitaron las tierras posterior a la batalla, todos estos fueron hallados en la necropolis del Templo de Sao Jorge, tambien los zoologos arqueologos estudiaron los huesos de animales que se encontraron en los fosos y otras partes del campo de batalla! cuales fueron los resultados?🤴👸🧠🔬
Many things happened at that time Lisbon and Porto held on to the power of Castile while at the same time the Black Death devastated Europe, all these factors made the Spanish army reach the brink of collapse and asked the French for help, which made the war was divided into two camps (English and Portuguese) against (Castilian and France), with this Castilla alliance was hoping to defeat the kingdom of Portugal. Here we see in this photo decorative objects such as jugs and coins that were unearthed in the Aljubarrota area. I also show you a replica of a weapon that looks like a "mallet" with an iron tip, I was surprised how heavy this weapon was "and of course this shows the damage it could inflict on a skull🧠👸🤴
sucedieron muchas cosas en esa epoca Lisboa y Porto aguantaban al poderio de castilla mientras al mismo tiempo la peste negra devastava europa, todos estos factores hicieron que el ejercito espanol llegara al borde de colapso y pidieron ayuda a los franceses, lo que hizo que la guerra se dividiese en dos bandos (Ingleses y Portugueses) contra (Castellana y Francia), con esta alianza castilla estaba con esperanza de vencer al reino de Portugal. Aqui vemos en esta foto objetos decorativos como jarras y monedas que fueron desenterrados en la zona de Aljubarrota. Asi mismo les muestro una replica de arma que parece un "mazo" con una punta de hierro, me sorprendio lo pesada que era esta arma" y claro esto demuestra el dano que podia inflingir a un craneo🚩⚔️👨🎓🧠
Background of the war📚🧠/Antecedentes de la guerra⚔️🚩
The Hundred Years War was known for the participation of France and England and the English would practice the same strategic combat system against the army of Castilla, a cavalry positioned on top of a high hill, the infantry in the middle and archers on the flanks previously already The English had surprised the French with this formation and they would fall into the trap for the second time. The museum is built on the land where that bloody battle was fought, so walking here is traveling hundreds of years into the past and we get an idea of the terrain characteristics⚔️📚
La guerra de los cien anos fue conocida por la participacion de francia e inglaterra y los ingleses practicarian el mismo sistema estrategico de combate contra el ejercito de castilla una caballeria posicionada encima de una alta colina, la infanteria en el medio y a los flancos arqueros anteriormente ya los ingleses habian sorprendido a los franceses con esta formacion y caerian en la trampa por segunda vez, el museo esta construido en las tierras donde se libro esa batalla sangrienta por tanto caminar aqui es viajar cientos de anos al pasado y nos hacemos una idea de las caracteristicas del terreno🧠
Juan made an alliance with France and Aragon on the Portuguese side Joao I made a military alliance with the powerful English army, when Juan was looking for provisions in the places where they had an alliance, on the other hand Joao's army was growing exponentially, reaching May 1385 the Castilian troops had their first setback in "Trancoso" however this did not discourage the Spanish army to continue with their plans (ABC story 2022) among the main characters of the combat we stand out from the "allied" side (Juan I, and Nuno Alvares) while from Castilian: (Juan I of Castile)🧠⚔️📚
Juan hacia una alianza con Francia y Aragon del lado Portugues Joao I realizo una alianza militar con el poderoso ejercito ingles, cuando Juan buscaba proviciones en los sitios donde tenian alianza por otro lado el ejercito de Joao iba creciendo exponencialmente, llegando a mayo de 1385 las tropas Castellanas tuvieron su primer tropieso en "Trancoso" sin embargo esto no desmotivo al ejercito espanol para seguir con sus planes (ABC historia 2022) entre los personajes principales del combate destacamos del lado "aliado" (Juan I, y Nuno Alvares) mientras de castellana: (Juan I de castilla)🚩🤴👨🎓👸
It was a hot summer📚🧠/Era un verano acalorado⚔️🚩
There were several battles in which the army of Castilla was reduced little by little, let's remember that its initial army was more than thirty thousand warriors, the battle was fought in August in the middle of summer, so that you have an idea this week the temperatures can reach almost 40 degrees, Portugal is quite hot imagine being dressed with many kilos of metal on top plus the heat and not being able to hydrate because once the army established their positions they cannot move, for the Spanish army this was another problem their soldiers were thirsty On the other hand, the Portuguese were more intelligent and Nuno Alvares asked Antao Vasques, who led the archer troop in the second area, to look for several clay jugs and find water for the troops, but it was not possible because there was a great drought, however It is believed that a lady who passed near the battle carried a jug full of water with her and distributed it to many soldiers.🚩📚🤴
Se producieron varios combates en los que el ejercito de Castilla fue reduciendo poco a poco recordemos que su ejercito inicial era de mas de treinta mil guerreros, la batalla se libro en agosto en pleno verano, para que tengas una idea esta semana las temperaturas pueden alcanzar casi los 40 grados, Portugal es bastante caliente imagina estar vestido con muchos kilos de metal encima mas el calor y no poder hidratarte pues una vez el ejercito establecido sus posiciones no se pueden mover, para el ejercito espanol esto fue otro problema sus soldados estaban sedientos, por otro lado los Portugueses fueron mas inteligentes y Nuno Alvares pidio a Antao Vasques quien lideraba la tropa de arqueros de la segunda area a buscar varias jarras de barro y buscar agua para las tropas pero no fue posible porque habia una grande sequia, sin embargo se cree que una senora que pasaba cerca de la batalla llevaba consigo una jarra llena de agua y repartio a muchos soldados. 📚🚩🧠
According to historical records, the Spanish had an army of more than 31,000 men, of which 2,000 were French knights, on the Portuguese side there were barely 6,000 units available, clearly all this combat was a strategic sum between the Portuguese leaders and the English tactics that already had a historical record of knowing French tactics, so simply... The Portuguese waited... Was it necessary to fight hand to hand if you were outnumbered? I don't think so...🚩📚🧠
Segun los registros historicos los espanoles contaban con un ejercito de mas de 31000 hombres, de los cuales 2000 eran caballeros franceses, del lado de los Portugueses apenas habian a disposicion 6000 unidades, claramente todo este combate fue una suma estrategica entre los lideres portugueses y las tacticas inglesas que ya tenian un registro historico de conocer las tacticas francesas, asi que simplemente... Los portugueses esperaron... Hacia falta luchar cuerpo a cuerpo si tenias inferioridad numerica? no creo...🤴👸🚩⚔️⚔️
A tactical carnage📚🧠/Una carniceria tactica⚔️🚩
The dismounted cavalry together with the infantry created a defense line on the hills while they waited for the army of Castilla, tactically the English archers formed two left and right flanks with a good vision of the firing range due to the height of the hills, the terrain It gave them extra protection because the army in the rear was protected by small rivers, the Spanish already knew that a frontal attack on the Portuguese could cost them dearly, in addition to the fact that the Spanish were very exhausted, however, the Spanish troops saw a gap in the terrain that they would take advantage of to attack, however the Portuguese noticed that weakness and quickly reinforced the terrain... It was a tactical war...🧠📚🤴
La caballeria desmontada junto con la infanteria crearon una linea de defensa en las colinas mientras esperaban al ejercito de Castillas, tacticamente los arqueros ingleses formaron dos flancos izquierdo y derecho con una buena vision de campo de tiro debido a la altura de las colinas, el terreno les daba una proteccion extra porque el ejercito en la retaguardia estaba protegido por pequenos rios, los espanoles ya sabian que un ataque frontal a los portugueses podria costarle muy caro ademas que los espanoles estaban muy agotados, sin embargo las tropas espanolas vieron un desnivel en el terreno que aprovecharian para atacar, sin embargo los Portugueses notaron esa debilidad y rapidamente reforzaron el terreno... Era una guerra tactica...📚🧠⚔️
Arriving in the afternoon, the Castilians attacked as the Portuguese had rehearsed, it was a frontal attack up the hill, it was what is called "French cavalry charge", hundreds of English archers who were in trenches literally "massacred the French cavalry", later the order was for the infantry to advance to finish annihilating the Spanish-French cavalry, but it was not enough for the King of Castile who knew that he had a much greater numerical superiority than the Portuguese, so he made all the infantry advance and at that point the archers retreat to leave exposed to the Portuguese defense, nothing to do for the Spanish, they were disordered and the Portuguese caused a loss of more than 10 thousand soldiers in the afternoon, seeing that he lost the war, Juan I of Castilla orders the withdrawal! but here in the retreat the Portuguese also killed hundreds of soldiers, the story ends in the retreat of the king to Seville and loss of his fortresses in Portugal. And so Portugal gave a war lesson to Spain who throughout its history wanted to conquer the Portuguese territory and never could!👸🚩🤴🧠⚔️
Llegando la tarde los Castellanos atacaron tal y como los Portugueses lo habian ensayado, fue un ataque frontal colina arriba fue lo que se llama "carga de caballeria francesa", centenares de arqueros ingleses que estaban en trincheras literalmente "masacraron a la caballeria francesa", posteriormente la orden era la infanteria avanzar para terminar de aniquilar la caballeria espanola-francesa, pero no basto para el Rey de Castilla que sabia que tenia una superioridad numerica mucho mayor a la portuguesa, por lo que hizo avanzar toda la infanteria y en ese punto los arqueros retroceden para dejar expuestos a la defensa portuguesa, nada que hacer para los espanoles estaban desordenados y los Portugueses causaron una baja de mas de 10mil soldados en la tarde, viendo que perdio la guerra Juan I de Castilla ordena la retirada! pero aqui en la retirada tambien los Portugueses mataron cientos de soldados, la historia termina en el retroceso del rey a Sevilla y perdida de sus fortalezas en Portugal. Y asi Portugal dio una leccion belica a espana quien por toda su historia quiso conquistar el territorio luso y jamas pudo!📚🚩🌏
