To get to Mozinho, where the ruins are located, you'll need a rental car because the area is quite isolated. There's no train going through, so it's the most logical option! However, traveling so far to visit some ruins won't be your only reason to visit. There are many other interesting things in the area, and I'll show you some of them!🌍🚙
Para llegar a Mozinho donde estan las ruinas, debemos hacerlo con vehiculo alquilado porque la zona es demasiado aislada, no tiene un tren pasando por aqui asi que es lo mas logico! sin embargo viajar tan lejos para visitar unas ruinas no sera tu unico proposito hay muchas cosas interesantes por la zona y ya te muestro alguna de ellas!🌏🧭

My friends! Now that we're in the dead city of Penafiel, as the ruins are also known, due to their interesting history! It was here that the Romans lived for more than 500 years, and where great trade routes were created by land and river. Currently, excavations in the area have stopped, and with a total of more than 200 hectares, archaeologists think that not everything has been discovered and that there are more things to bring to light.🚙🌍
Mis amigos! ahora que estamos en la ciudad muerta de penafiel, asi tambien se le conoce a las ruinas, por su interesante historia! fueron aqui donde los Romanos vivieron mas de 500 anos, aqui se crearon grandes rutas comerciales por tierra y por rios, actualmente pararon las excavaciones de la zona y con un total de mas de 200 hectareas, los arqueologos piensan que no todo esta descubierto y que hay mas cosas por sacar a la luz.🏔️🗺️

Coordinates: Tomb, funerary method📍🌍/ Coordenadas: Tumba, metodo funerario📸

Here we see a necropolis area, which would be a place where people who died were buried. This fact is interesting and we don't see it in the YouTube video, so it's exclusive to the community. The Romans, like other civilizations, practiced burial as the main funerary method. Cremation was not a very common practice, and it was only done in times of war to bring "peace" to a political or military leader.🚙🌍

Within a central core called "public zone" where there were no buildings, urban areas were established all around, which is where the Romans lived from the 1st century BC to the 5th century AD. Here we will see buildings with similarities, since many had divisions where domestic animals were raised and kept.🌍🚙
dentro de un nucleo central llamado "zona publica" donde no habian construcciones, en todos los alrededores se establecieron las areas urbanas, que era donde vivian los Romanos desde el siglo I a.C hasta el siglo V d.C, aqui veremos construcciones con similitudes, ya que muchas tenian divisiones donde se criaban y colocaban los animales domestico.👨🏻‍🏫🧭

Here we see an area where people were cremated, afterwards they were placed in a container and products such as food and drinks were added, which for us today would be placing flowers.👨🏻‍🏫

The Romans had a fairly organized lifestyle, unlike the medieval era when everything was chaotic. For the Romans, everyone had to be productive. Cleanliness was very important to avoid disease, so tombs were far from residential areas, and cities had public baths and separate channels for clean water and sewage, something that was lost in the medieval era when all the rivers were polluted due to poor organization and lack of cleanliness.🚙🌍🌄
Los Romanos tenian un estilo de vida bastante organizada, a diferencia de la era medieval todo era un caos, para los Romanos todos tenian que ser productivos, la limpieza era algo bastante importante para evitar enfermedades por ello las tumbas estaban muy lejos de las areas residenciales, y existian en las ciudades banos publicos y canaletas de agua limpia separadas de las aguas negras, cosa que se perdio en la era medieval donde todos los rios estaban contaminados por la mala organizacion y falta de limpieza.🌏🏔️🗺️

Here we see in an area on the outskirts of the residential area some bases with the respective Roman pillars built with a special mixture of cement, granite or marble! These bases served to support areas with high ceilings, it was in front of the main entrance and features designs of animals and human figures.🌏🌍
Aqui vemos en una zona a las afueras del area residencial unas bases con los respectivos pilares romanos construidos con una mezcla de cemento especial, granito o marmol! estas bases servian para dar soporte a zonas con techos elevados, estaba al frente de la entrada principal y presenta unos disenos de animales y figuras humanas.🚙🧭👨🏻‍🏫

It's incredible how fortified Mozinho was for its time! Remember that the best wall systems were built in the 11th century during the medieval era, but the Romans had a system of three walls running throughout the area, and the villagers had a hinged gate at the entrance to the city center that could be raised and lowered as needed. Without a doubt, it was an impenetrable city.🌏
Es increible lo fortificada que era Mozinho, para la epoca! recordemos que el mejor sistema de murallas fueron construidos en el siglo XI en la era medieval, pero los Romanos tenian un sistema de tres murallas recorriendo toda la zona y los aldeanos, en la entrada del centro de la ciudad una puerta con bisagras que subia y bajaba de acuerdo a la necesidad de la ciudad, sin duda una ciudad impenetrable🗺️

residential areas and wall⛰️🚩

The public area differed from others due to the absence of construction within the grounds; therefore, we infer that it was an open space where the Romans practiced leisure activities, enjoyment, games, socializing, and even public meetings, announcements, political topics; any type of social event took place here in the center of the city, where a circle is seen in the drone image.🌍📍

El area publica se diferenciaba de otras por la ausencia construccion dentro del terreno, por tanto inferimos que es un espacio abierto donde los Romanos practicaban actividades lazer, disfrute, juegos, socializar, e inclusive reuniones publicas, anuncios, temas de politicas, cualquier tipo de evento social se hacia aqui en el centro de la ciudad donde se ve un circulo en la imagen del drone🗺️🚩
