- Via Publicae is a Roman municipal road from Braga (Bracara Augusta) to Lisbon (Olisipo). Along the way, Romans brought the first industries to the region: iron works, stone masonry, ceramic manufacture as well as the technique of preserving fish with salt. Trade blossomed, markets opened and cities thrived. Once the road networks were established, attention was turned to building up the ports such as Porto, formerly Portus Cale.
Inland, near Conimbriga, we find the largest Roman dig in Portugal. Archaeologist and custodian Virgílio Hipólito Correia gives us an insight into the art of mosaics. Conimbriga had been a settlement since prehistory. In 139 B.C., Roman troops conquered it and established the Roman Province of Lusitania there. During Emperor Augustus' reign, the city was expanded to give the settlers the infrastructure essential for everyday life.
