Portugal
22,000 years of History, Gastronomy, and Wine adventure!
The Muse Polyhymnia, who influenced the arts, dance, religion, and politics, sent me, Taras, on a 12-day task to explore the authentic side of Portugal.
I experienced a vast period of history, in a short space of time, which you can too!
Some of the highlights I discovered:
• the Portuguese legacy, covering: the Almendres Cromlech, and caves (with its rock painting) and the Côa engravings;
• the villages and the Castreja culture and their struggles against roman invasions;
• Roman influence, temples, and gods;
• the Arabic presence
• the affirming of Christianity in the independence of Portugal
• the consecration of Fatima as the altar of the world.
This adventure showed me the continuous interdependence between temporal and religious power and how together they were weaving and structuring a cultural, religious, and political identity. A lifestyle both rich and autonomous.
