Description
Mount Lovelhe was a place that knew human occupation from an early age. The end of the 1st millennium a.c. when the first settlement appeared here - a castro. It was a small community dedicated to the exploitation of fish resources. However, this place would quickly know the advent of Romanization, the result of the ease of commercial contacts that could be developed across the River Minho. In fact, when we reach the century. IV AD, when there was an important Roman villa here, we will detect the existence of a port, and vast amphora storage areas, vases intended to contain wine, oil and other products, all of which were destined for what was at the time a well-structured trade.
In this way, we see the archaeological remains of Greek ceramics, Phoenician glasses and Roman coins emerging from the most distant places of the Empire. Source: https://www.cm-vncerveira.pt/
