Conheira do Touro

data access 94936

Conheira of enormous dimensions, with around 2 hectares of total occupancy, with conhos arranged in rows. 

The spoils were taken to Ribeira de Codes. It is the only conheira that offered material, in this case a 26cm long iron spearhead, with the initials MAF inscribed in low relief on a rectangular cartouche. 

Around 100,000m³ of sand and gravel may have been extracted here.
