History of Loriga - History of Loriga by the historian António Conde on Wikipedia

History of Loriga - Wikipedia article created by the historian António Conde. The efficient, though discreet, research and dissemination work that the historian and our great loriguense António Conde has been doing for decades, has borne many fruits, and much of the information about Loriga released there is due to the initiative of this great Loriguense. This great Loriguense researches the history of Loriga for about 30 years, at the expense of much sacrifice and many personal expenses, creating a rich work, which can be read extracts on many sites, including articles on Loriga in English and Portuguese that he created on Wikipedia. António Conde acts, does, criticizes what is badly always presenting solutions, loves his land passionately and is allergic to hypocrisy and vanity fairs. This article was vandalized with the main objectives of introducing an illegal and non-representative “coat of arms” of Loriga, and erasing from the sources the author of this article because he opposes for this illegality to affect the image of this town and of the own Wikipedia. However the illegal heraldic aberration was finally removed from the article in 2017, failing to restore in the sources the links that point to the author of the same and correct the other errors introduced. This edition has already been reversed to hide the truth, which in fact has happened more than ten years. History of Loriga, excerpts from the work of the historian António Conde on Wikipedia . The vandals, the ones who deliberately and insistently put up mistakes and lies, were challenged to prove the origin of the historical data found in the Wikipedia article created by António Conde, and we can all sit around because only the one who did the research can say where got the data. It is hilarious that the vandals and who they support and promote, call into question historical data while claiming they have not been surveyed by António Conde. Decide once and for all; If the data is credible and the research is not from him who did it reveal the sources of the historical data, or if they are not credible delete them. Do not be jealous and mean, do not make sad figures, and stop harming the image of Loriga and the Loriguenses!

Apelidada de “Suíça Portuguesa”. É uma das vilas mais altas de

Portugal.

História

Fundada originalmente no alto de uma colina entre ribeiras onde hoje existe o centro histórico da vila. O local

foi escolhido há mais de dois mil e seiscentos anos devido à facilidade de defesa (uma colina entre ribeiras), à

abundância de água e de pastos, bem como ao facto de a as terras mais baixas providenciarem alguma caça e

condições mínimas para a prática da agricultura. Desta forma estavam garantidas as condições mínimas de

sobrevivência para uma população e povoação com alguma importância.

O nome veio da localização estratégica da povoação, do seu protagonismo e

dos seus habitantes nos montes Hermínios (actual Serra da Estrela) na

resistência lusitana, o que levou os romanos a porem-lhe o nome de Lorica,

designação geral para couraça guerreira romana; deste nome derivou Loriga

(derivação iniciada pelos Visigodos), que tem o mesmo significado.

Igreja Matriz de Loriga - vista

interior.

Em termos de património histórico,

destacam-se a ponte e a estrada romanas

(século I a.C.), uma sepultura antropomórfica

(século VI a.C.) chamada popularmente de

"caixão da moura", a Igreja Matriz (século

XIII, reconstruída), o Pelourinho (século

XIII,reconstruído), o Bairro de São Ginês (São Gens) com origem anterior à

chegada dos romanos e a Rua de Viriato em memória do heroi lusitano que a

tradição local aponta como tendo nascido aqui. A Rua da Oliveira, pela sua

peculiaridade, situada na área mais antiga do centro histórico da vila, recorda

algumas das características urbanas da época medieval.

Ponte romana.

A estrada romana e uma das duas pontes (a outra ruiu no século XVI após uma grande cheia na Ribeira de S.

Bento), com as quais os romanos ligaram Lorica, na Lusitânia, ao restante império, merecem destaque.
