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!

Known as Lobriga by the Lusitanians an Lorica by the Romans, it is more than 2600 yearsold. Notable people from Loriga include Viriathus (known as Viriato in Portuguese), a famous Lusitanianleader and portuguese national hero.Loriga was founded originally along a column between ravines where today the historic centre exists. Thesite was ostensibly selected more than 2600 years ago, owing to its defensibility, the abundance ofpotable water and pasturelands, and lowlands that provided conditions to practice both hunting andgathering/agriculture.[1]When the Romans arrived in the region, the settlement was concentrated into two areas. The larger,older and principal agglomeration was situated in the area of the main church and Rua de Viriato,fortified with a wall and palisade.[1] The second group, in the Bairro de São Ginês, were some smallhomes constructed on the rocky promintory, which were later appropriated by the Visigoths in order toconstruct a chapel.[1] The 1st century Roman road and two bridges (the second was destroyed in the17th century after flooding) connected the outpost of Lorica to the rest of their Lusitanian province.[1]The barrio of São Ginês (São Gens), a local ex-libris, is the location of the chapel of Nossa Senhora doCarmo, an ancient Visigothic chapel. São Gens, a Celtic saint, martyred in Arles na Gália, during thereign of Emperor Diocletian, and over time the locals began to refer to this saint as São Ginês, due to itseasy of pronunciation.[1][edit] Middle AgesLoriga was the municipal seat since the 12th century, receiving forals in 1136 (João Rhânia, master ofthe Terras de Loriga for over two decades, during the reign of Afonso Henriques), 1249 (during thereign of Afonso III), 1474 (under King Afonso V) and finally in 1514 (by King Manuel I).[1]Loriga was an ecclesiastical parish of the vicarage of the Royal Padroado and its Matriz Church wasordered constructed in 1233, by King Sancho II.[1] This church, was to the invokation of Santa MariaMaior, and constructed over the ancient small Visigothic chapel (there is a lateral block with Visigothinscriptions visible).[1] Constructed in the Romanesque-style it consists of a three-nave building, withhints of the Sé Velha of Coimbra. This structure was destroyed during the 1755 earthquake, and onlyportions of the lateral walls were preserved.[1][edit] MonarchyThe 1755 earthquake resulted in significant damage to the village of Loriga, destroying homes and theparcochial residence, in addition to opening-up cracks and faults in the village's larger buildings, such asthe historic municipal council hall (constructed in the 13th century).[1] An emissary of the Marquess of
