  • Who built the Neolithic stone circles, cromlechs and tombs of Portugal and Spain? Why did these people make strange plaque shaped idols? Where did they come from and who are the Bell Beaker people who invaded Iberia and replaced the megalith culture? All such questions are answered in this documentary about Neolithic Iberia.

    During the worst of the pandemic no one was allowed out so I would sneak at sunset to ride my bike in the Sintra mountain, Portugal. One night I followed a trail and was startled by a 3meter high stone structure, which looked partly manmade. I was alone, at night and felt amazed that this thing existed only a few kms from my house. Later I learned that it was a neolithic structure, perfectly facing west, overlooking the ocean near the most western point in europe.

      The fortress of Undika (Ullastret) or Indika, the name in Iberian of these two city-states of the Indiketes, an Iberian tribe from the Iron Age in Catalonia. It was in front of a lake that dried up in the last century and changed the course of the Daró River. They have to imagine a large lake surrounded by vegetation and the city of l'illa d'en Reixach was only 10% excavated and surrounded by water, which is why its walls were four meters wide to avoid flooding.

In what concerns to romans, i have to disagree, altough its true that forms of latin were spoken by the high priests and the catholic inhereted that tradition of using it as a liturgical language, the catholics cannot possibly have started the language since latin was spoken by the pagan romans millenia before Jesus. I don't think catholics brought latin into Spain either, iberians were still pagans when they started speaking vulgar latin.

    Awesome video. Needless to say, may of the current cities in Portugal and Spain were once locations of ancient cites, temples and forts. Evora, Viseu, Castelo Branco and others have all been continuously inhabited since the age of Ptolomy, when they were recorded on maps and such.
    Out of my adventures exploring Portugal, the most interesting finding was discovering that the Castelo Branco Cathedral is built upon much older structures. Previously on some early medieval christian church, but, before that, pagan temples not too dissimilar to the one that stands in Evora today. It is still possible to see parts of the previous structures on the outer wall of the church. Very poetic and symbolic of the history of the continent.

The churches devoted to a corpse on the cross are slowly disintegrating and their religion is now dying.

    Seems to me that Stonehenge & other structures in Great Britain are connected with what we find in Portugal & surrounding area, I believe there is clear evidence that the same peoples built these structures & probably others that have been destroyed or yet to be found.. so much to learn still about who our ancestors were & what they did & why, their history much like Portugal's has been very underrated in their knowledge , determination , commitment & achievements . No surprise that DNA tests have shown that the Iberian people (in particular the Portuguese blood lines) have the most unique blood not only of Europe but the world, the location & geography of the Iberian peninsula has been very important for past & present populations through out thousands of years ... super presentation , keep it coming amigo :) .

After that it’s like the Spaniards disappeared and don’t do anything after that. We’re constantly taught in depth history about the British and the French like they’re the only Europeans to have done anything to impact North American history but that’s not true. I’d argue that Spain has impacted history on a larger scale than Britain could ever hope to reach. I suspect that the infamous black legend about Spain has something to do with it. Nonetheless, Spain needs to be taught in an in depth analysis as much as France and Britain are because otherwise we are missing a huge part of North American and US history. That said, we are talking about the US’s terrible education system so I am not surprised either.

      Jack Holloway. Actually, there are three large dolmens at Antequera, the Menga dolmen, (built c 3500 BC) and Viera (c 3500 BC) and El Romeral (c 2500 BC) their positions are interrelated. The passage of the Menga dolmen is oriented to the Summer Solstice when it is above the Pena de los Enamorades mountain, which resembles a human head looking upwards, the mountain was sacred, for megalithic remains have been found there as also rock paintings. The Viera and El Romeral dolmens are oriented to the Mid Winter Solstice, which is the standard alignment of most dolmenic monuments. The beliefs of the builders was universally animistic and shamanic, which is not a religion and is far removed from institutionalised Abrahamic religion.

    You spoil us with these documentaries. Thx for your hard work. This is the best description I've seen for why Bell Beaker is not from Iberia. I know this is true but haven't figured out why yet archaeologically.

    Very much enjoyed this very much. It's hard to find history on Portugal like this for some reason. It was interesting learning about my ancestral history lol, I'd like more!

      @@Survivethejive Honestly did my man, I told my Avô because during the Angolan war he was stationed at Évora. He showed me around the city when I visited. HOWEVER, now I know that we missed the NEOLITHIC MONUMENTS!! So we will go back! But please, I really do beg of you. I can not find any information on my people, the Lusitanians. I am told they are Celtic, but I can only find vague descriptions and some battles with romans when I look it up and honestly I don't really know what they looked like. It would mean a lot to many people if you made a video on the Lusitani.
