Health, trauma, and social care in a medieval rural community: The evidence of remodeled severe bone lesions in the necropolis of Santa Maria (Idanha-a-Velha, Portugal)
The Santa Maria necropolis (Idanha-a-Velha), primarily dated to the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, represents a rare and securely dated medieval skeletal assemblage from the interior of Portugal. Twenty-seven out of the 44 adult individuals exhumed (61%) show evidence of at least one pathological skeletal condition, reflecting a high prevalence of disease and trauma in this rural community. Here, a general overview of skeletal alterations in t…

Exploring Diet in the Middle Ages in Northeastern Portugal (Bragança) Through Dental Calculus: The Cases of Torre Velha (Castro De Avelãs) and Mós (Torre De Moncorvo)
Calculus deposits of individuals unearthed from Torre Velha (TVCA) and Mós (MOTM), Necropolis, were analyzed to obtain insights about diet, crop cultivation, and plant use. All samples (n = 11) revealed micro-remains, including starch grains, pollen grains, fungal spores, and sclerenchyma fibers. Starch grains were detected in all studied specimens, belonging mostly to wheat and rye, with fewer to barley and various pulses, with fava beans being …
Echoes of Unwoven Breaks: A Paleopathological Literature Review of Nonunion Fractures
This study presents a wide literature review of nonunion fractures in paleopathological contexts, including the description of a new case from Idanha‐a‐Velha (Castelo Branco, Portugal). Nonunion factures, characterized by the failure of broken bone fragments to reunite properly, are rare in the paleopathological record. This review aims to gather and analyze existing cases of this condition, using academic databases and specific research terms re…

Mapas coloniais e arqueologia: Uma análise pós-processual da paisagem da cidade do Rio de Janeiro nos séculos XVI e XVII
This article maps the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries archaeological sites in Guanabara Bay, located in the state of Rio de Janeiro and analyses its coeval cartographic representation. The archaeological sites, registered at the Instituto do Patrimônio Histórico e Artístico Nacional (IPHAN) website, are plotted using Geographic Information System (GIS) and satellite images. Then, the plotted site’s geolocations are compared with their sixteen…
Um forno e dois crânios encontrados na porta Sul da Egitânia (Idanha-a-Velha): Uma descoberta única do início da Idade Média
Em 2019, durante as escavações arqueológicas levadas a cabo na Aldeia Histórica de Idanha-a-Velha, no âmbito do projeto “IGAEDIS: Da Civitas Igaeditanorum à Egitânia. A construção e evolução da cidade e a definição dos seus territórios da época romana até à doação dos Templários (séculos I a XII)”, foram exumados dois crânios no interior de um pequeno forno localizado na porta sul da antiga cidade romana. Os crânios correspondem a dois indivíduos…
Um suporte de época romana epigrafado e decorado com temática marcial em Viseu (Portugal)
El objetivo principal de este texto es la presentación de un hallazgo epigráfico realizado en la ciudad de Viseu (Portugal) que, en la antigüedad, fue una de las capitales de ciuitas del norte de la Lusitania. La pieza en cuestión es una estela que se encontraba reutilizada en un edificio de época contemporánea y que destaca tanto por su decoración, al incluir la representación (incompleta) de un guerrero, como por las peculiaridades lingüísticas…
Los baptisterios de Egitania (Idanha-a-Velha, Portugal). Contexto arqueológico y cultural
En el ámbito del proyecto de investigación IGAEDIS (Da civitas Igaeditanorum à Egitânia. A construção e evolução da cidade e a definição dos seus territórios da Época Romana até à doação dos Templários - séculos I a XII) se han realizado diferentes actuaciones arqueológicas en la actual aldea histórica de Idanha-a-Velha (Portugal). Además, la revisión de anteriores intervenciones, complementadas con la realización de dataciones absolutas, han per…
Contributo para o estudo do povoamento rural de Igaedis (civitas Igaeditanorum) através de um mapa de usos potenciais da terra (Mupt)
Para poder comprender la ocupación del territorio en torno de Idanha-a-Velha (capital de la civitas Igaeditanorum) y las dinámicas del poblamiento que ahí se desarrollaron, construimos un Mapa de Usos Potenciales de la Tierra que cruzamos con los asentamientos rurales romanos identificados en trabajos de prospección intensiva. Esta cartografía digital arqueológica representa una metodología innovadora que raramente ha sido aplicada en territorio …
Dating the early Christian baptisteries from Idanha-a-Velha-the Suebi-Visigothic Egitania: Stratigraphy, radiocarbon and OSL
The results of the excavations carried out by one of the authors in the early Christian baptisteries of Idanha-a-Velha, in Suebi- Visigothic Egitania, are presented. Chronostratigraphic data (stratigraphic sequence, typological analysis) are compared with radiocarbon and luminescence dates in order to establish a hypothesis concerning the construction date of both north and south baptisteries. The results have shown that the baptisteries are date…
La cerámica de importación de los contextos de época Claudia del forum de Aeminium (Coimbra, Portugal)
Las intervenciones arqueolgicas realizadas de forma ms o menos continuada desde la dcada de los 90 del siglo XX en el espacio del antiguo foro y criptoprtico de Aeminium (Combra) permitieron exhumar una importante coleccin de material cermico de poca romana. Los conjuntos cermicos ms relevantes provienen de contextos sellados y asociados a los niveles de relleno coetneos a la construccin del forum, a mediados del siglo I d.C. En este trabajo se p…
Los foros de Conimbriga y de Aeminium: Comparación y síntesis del estado de la cuestión
This paper presents the forums of the Roman cities of Conimbriga (Condeixa-a-Velha, Portugal) and Aeminium (Coimbra, Portugal), both of which date from the time of Augustus. The Aeminium forum was completely rebuilt in the time of Claudius/Nero, while the Conimbriga one was remodelled in the same period, before being demolished under the Flavians to make way for a completely new construction. This article offers a state-of-the-art comparison of t…
Aeminium
Aeminium was one of the most important Roman cities in the northwestern part of the province of Lusitania. It is noted for harboring one of the best preserved cryptoportici of the Roman world. Under Claudius, the forum of this civitas capital was built over the cryptoporticus. The architecture of the forum was unusual, with two‐tiered porticoes, and the layout of a basilica with aedes Augusti .
Igaedis
The present village of Idanha‐a‐Velha, located in the interior of Portugal, between the rivers Tagus and Douro, was, in Roman times, the capital of civitas Igaeditanorum – one of the most important civitates of the northwestern interior of the province of Lusitania. Igaedis was the probable name of this city, which ruled over a vast territory with significant gold‐mining activity. Of the few remaining buildings of this ancient city, the forum and…

O forum dos Igaeditani e os primeiros tempos da civitas Igaeditanorum (Idanha-a-Velha, Portugal)
Se pretende dar a conocer los resultados —aún inéditos— de las excavaciones arqueológicas llevadas a cabo en 2007 y 2008 en el forum de la capital de Igaeditani. Entre las principales novedades recogidas durante las dos campañas de excavación se destaca la fecha de construcción del forum (con comprobada cronología Augustiana, fundamentada ésta, por primera vez, en el registro estratigráfico y siendo diferente de la que ha sido generalmente avanza…
