Arco de Baúlhe · archaeological interpretation

Before the rails, a castro

During the Romanization, the villages of the region did not all follow the same path. The Archaeological Letter suggests that the small castro of the Arco de Baúlhe will have lost inhabitants, while Chacim gained centrality. It also refers to the expansion of agricultural occupation to lowlands. This reading helps to imagine a territory in transformation, but does not provide a certain date for the abandonment of the castro of the Arc. The Charter places these changes in the process begun in the second half of the first century before Christ. The transformation was not limited to houses: it also altered the relationship between settlements, fields and centers of power. Chacim appears as a place of population concentration and renewal of spaces, while the Arc is presented as a possible example of emptying. Mó de Cima materials in Chacim are used to support the agricultural occupation of the lowlands. Later, the text highlights open facilities of the couple type, such as Abadim. Read together, these clues show a change in the organization of the territory; they do not allow drawing a single displacement of inhabitants between two points, nor date all changes in the same year.

Vamos experimentar?

  1. Draw two villages and fields among them.
  2. Use arrow keys to represent the hypothesis of population change; do not draw a historical route as if it were proven.
  3. Compare the history of the Arch with that of the agricultural couple of Abadim.

Gondiães e Vilar de Cunhas · memory and landscape

A house with three granaries

In Casa de Chouzas, three 19th-century granaries join the solarengo building highlighted by the Municipality. The set approximates two functions: inhabit and guard the harvest. Instead of looking only at the main house, it is also worth recognizing the importance of agricultural support constructions. The presentation of Vilar de Cunhas places this heritage in a plateau and mountain landscape, marked by agriculture and pastoral care. The house and the granaries can be read in this work context, without the source detailing the production of each property. The dating of the house is less firm: the municipality presents it as perhaps 19th century, while assigning the granaries to the 19th century. This difference must remain visible. The photo accompanying the reading shows the portal; it does not show the three granaries. The asset reference does not confirm access to the set.

Vamos experimentar?

  1. Look at the photo of the portal and list only the elements you can see.
  2. Compared to the three granaries mentioned in the text: what depends on the written description?
  3. Imagine a caption that distinguishes the frame of the photograph from the remaining patrimonial set.

General knowledge · national guide

The mushroom is just a part

The mushroom is a reproductive structure; the body of many fungi is a network of filaments, the mycelium. Every filament is called a hipha. The CCRES describes this network to colonize living or decomposing organic matter, from which the fungus obtains nutrients. The fruitful body develops from the mycelium and allows to disperse spores. If they find favorable conditions, they may give rise to a new mycelium. The visible mushroom counts only one part of the cycle; not all fungi produce hat-like structures. In the cultivation of some decomposing species, mycelium can develop in inoculated trunks. The same support can produce mushrooms for several years, while there are conditions and nutrients. This general explanation does not identify a species or document an occurrence in Cabeceiras. The network can also be organized into strings called rhizomorphs. In certain wood fungi, these help to cross branches or trunks and reach for another food. An outer layer protects the interior hyphae during this exploration. Another strategy is to form sclerotia: compact masses of hyphae with a resistant coverage. They allow you to go through unfavorable periods and, when conditions improve, they can originate mycelium or reproductive structures. These are forms of growth and resistance described by the Australian botanical garden, not local records.

Vamos experimentar?

  1. Draw a network of wires on paper and, above, a mushroom.
  2. Tick the net as mycelium and choose a wire to represent a hyphae.
  3. Use the drawing as a scheme: it does not represent the shape or size of a real fungus.
