My daughter and I stumbled upon the Cerro da Vila ruins in Vilamoura, Quarteira, Portugal several years ago. It was the first Roman ruin I’d been to outside Italy and I was surprised to see a Roman outpost so far from Italy. Your map explains it. It is a wonderful place to visit if you ever happen to be in the Algarve in Portugal.

Such a shame the Christendom lost North Africa.

Yeah, the Romans even made it China, but not as conquerors. Rome was all over the place. Pretty amazing how it left it’s mark just about everywhere.
