Com base nos trabalhos conduzidos por M. Heleno, G. e V. Leisner, e pela equipa do projecto MEGAGEO (dirigida por R. Boaventura) nas áreas de Estremoz e Redondo, os autores pretendem esboçar algumas leituras a respeito dos patamares evolutivos do Megalitismo nas abas da Serra d’Ossa – leituras estas baseadas tanto na análise das arquitecturas e respectivos mobiliários votivos como na própria situação espacial dos monumentos e sua consequente dispersão territorial. Com efeito, regista-se nesta região uma interessante diversidade arquitectónica, desde os pequenos sepulcros de Câmara simples (como Godinhos, Chãs 1, Barroca ou Ta- lha 3) aos sepulcros afins dos tholoi (como Caladinho), passando pelos pequenos sepulcros de Corredor curto (como Outeirões 2 ou Courela da Anta) e pelos sepulcros de Corredor de média/grande dimensão (como Casas do Canal 1, Entre Águas, Vidigueira ou Casas Novas 1), com tem- pos de utilização estendidos genericamente desde meados do 4º milénio a.n.e.

The landscape mingles with the vines and cereal crops – an ever-changing canvas of colour: intensely green towards the end of winter, the colour of straw at the end of spring, and deep ochre during the final months of summer. 1 All over the Alentejo there are archaeological markers suggesting that wine has Historybeen an important part of life up to the present day. Whilst it is not known exactly when wine and viticulture was introduced to the Alentejo, there is plenty of evidence that they were already part of the day-to-day life in the Alentejo by the time the Romans arrived in the south of Portugal. It is thought that the Tartessians, an ancient civilisation based in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and heirs of the Andalusian Megalithic culture, were the first to domesticate vineyards and introduce winemaking principles in the Alentejo.

    CONCELHO DE ALANDROAL Aspectos Geográficos O concelho de Alandroal, do distrito de Évora, localiza-se na Região do Alentejo (NUT II), no Alentejo Central (NUT III). Ocupa uma área de 544,1 km2 e abrange seis freguesias: Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Juromenha (Nossa Senhora do Loreto), Santiago Maior, Capelins (Santo António), Terena (São Pedro) e São Brás Matos (Mina Bugalho). O concelho apresentava, em 2005, um total de 6339 habitantes. O natural ou habitante de Alandroal denomina-se alandroalense. O concelho encontra-se limitado pelos seguintes concelhos: a norte, Vila Viçosa; a oeste, Redondo; a sul, Reguengos de Monsaraz; e a este, território espanhol. Possui um clima de influência marcadamente mediterrânica, caracterizado por uma estação seca bem acentuada no Verão. A precipitação ronda os 500 mm entre os meses de Outubro e Março e os 170 mm no semestre mais seco, sendo bastante irregular. A sua morfologia é marcada por um relevo relativamente suave, destacando-se, com menos de 500 metros de altitude, a serra Patinhas (351 m) e, com maior altitude, o monte do Castelo (638 m). Como recursos hídricos, destacam-se o rio de Lucefece, o rio Guadiana, a ribeira de Alcalate e a ribeira do Alandroal. Neste território localiza-se a barragem do Alqueva, no rio Guadiana. História e Monumentos Alandroal foi fundado em 1298 por D. Lourenço Afonso, Mestre de Avis, e, em 1486, recebeu foral. Nas terras deste concelho crescem aloendros, ou alandros, cuja madeira é usada no artesanato local, e daí a origem do topónimo. Como acontecimento de destaque, merece referência a explosão de um armazém de pólvora, ocorrida a 14 de Janeiro de 1659, que causou vários mortos, na generalidade estudantes universitários de Évora, capitaneados pelo jesuíta Pe.

  • Caraterização Do Concelho De Barrancos
    Caraterização do concelho de Barrancos Barrancos é uma vila localizada na região do Baixo Alentejo, distrito de Beja. Possui uma área com 168,43 km2 e cerca de 1834 habitantes (censos de 2011). Barrancos é o Município com menor população do continente e o terceiro menos povoado de Portugal. O concelho situa-se numa localização geográfica periférica, fator fortemente indutor de isolamento social. Contudo, como já tivemos oportunidade de referir, em inúmeras ocasiões, Barrancos é uma porta de entrada no país e, simultaneamente, uma porta de entrada na Europa. Localização geográfica O concelho é limitado a norte e a leste pelos Municípios espanhóis de Oliva de La Frontera e Valencia del Mombuey (província de Badajoz) e de Encinasola (província de Huelva), a sul e oeste pelo Município de Moura e a Noroeste pelo Município de Mourão. A vila de Barrancos, dista 21 Kms de Santo Aleixo da Restauração (Moura), a povoação portuguesa mais próxima, Amareleja e Safara, estão a aproximadamente 26 Kms, Moura a 50 Kms e a sede de distrito, Beja, a 110 Kms. Lisboa, a capital fica a cerca de 250 Kms. A população A população residente no concelho acompanha a tendência dos municípios de baixa densidade do interior do país. Em cerca de cinquenta anos, Barrancos perdeu metade da sua população, evolução que coloca o Município perante uma realidade severa de despovoamento. A entrada neste novo século colocou Barrancos com um número de habitantes inferior a dois mil, isto é, entre o recenseamento da população de 1991 e os dados de 2016, Barrancos perdeu 260 habitantes. Segundo o Anuário estatístico da Região Alentejo (INE 2018), estima-se que a população de Barrancos seja de 1669 habitantes em 31/12/2017.
