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!

History

The remaining Roman-era bridge

crossing the Ribeira de Loriga

Loriga was founded along a column between ravines where today the historic centre exists. The

site was ostensibly selected more than 2600 years ago, owing to its defensibility, the abundance

of potable water and pasturelands, and lowlands that provided conditions to practice both

hunting and gathering/agriculture. [3]

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. [3] The second group, in the Bairro de São Ginês, were

some small homes constructed on the rocky promintory, which were later appropriated by the

Visigoths in order to construct a chapel. [3] The 1st century Roman road and two bridges (the

second was destroyed in the 16th century after flooding in the Ribeira de São Bento) connected

the outpost of Lorica to the rest of their Lusitanian province. [3] The barrio of São Ginês (São

Gens), a local ex-libris, is the location of the chapel of Nossa Senhora do Carmo, an ancient
