Roman Villa of Sendim
Roman Villa of Sendim

In 1992, at a construction site foundation opening, the remaining walls and abundant vestiges of ceramics of Roman typology appeared in Sendim. An archaeological emergency excavation was carried out disclosing the existence of paved grounds with mosaics of geometric type, presenting the possibility of it being a Roman Villa.


Description

    The acquisition of the land by the City Hall allowed the development of the area for further exploration projects and the creation of an on-site museum, which was subject to Subprogram C of PRONORTE. 

    The estate exhumed in the archaeological excavations is varied, formed by thousand of ceramic fragments of common kitchen and tableware, luxury ceramics, glasses, metal and bronze coins. Some pots, plates, vases and goblets, after being restored, will become part of the museum's collection to be displayed in the Interpretation Center supporting the ruins.
