Castro de Romariz, Archaeological hillfort in Romariz, Portugal.
The Castro de Romariz stands on elevated ground with earthworks, ramparts, and ditches forming a complex defensive structure from the Iron Age period.
Built over 2,000 years ago, this fortification represents a transition period between the Bronze Age and Iron Age when communities moved toward larger settlements.
Archaeological excavations at the site have uncovered pottery, metal tools, and animal remains that demonstrate the daily activities of early inhabitants.
The site maintains natural grasslands through controlled grazing, which prevents tree growth while protecting the archaeological layers beneath the surface.
Multiple defensive banks and ditches form the structure, indicating advanced engineering capabilities of ancient communities in northern Portugal.
