The inventory identifies a V-wall trap in Vilar de Cunhas. The date of construction remains uncertain: it discusses hypotheses between the Modern Era and the 19th century. One detail distinguishes it from other fires: one of the walls rises towards the well. The reading of digits on a slab is also uncertain, between 1668 and 1868. Doubt helps to understand why inventory does not set a single date.
