But there is more, much more in the Costa da Morte, where the shadow of Santiago is present at ever

FinisTerrae (VII). Legends and traditions. The Apostle and the cities "flooded or flooded"
We retrieved articles Jose Antonio De la Riera on the Camino de Santiago in his last stretch between xnx Santiago xnx and the end of the world. Use of these new articles of former President of AGACA, one of the great defenders of historical Way to make us rethink the treasure xnx we have in the region and not just care.
De la Riera claims that this series is a sample, the sample of the history, tradition and legend has left a fascinating region, the Costa da Morte. Only from that counts here may understand the application of the UNESCO declaration of World Heritage for this extension Jacobean historical and indisputable. FinisTerrae (VII). Legends and traditions. xnx The Apostle and the cities "flooded or flooded"
Duio: "In Galicia, next to Our Lady of FinisTerrae, where a temple was the oldest of Spain, which they called the Gentiles Ara Solis and the foundations of a city called Duio, and the population now i retains xnx the same name , in which King lived in the Province, as stated by the Holy Father xnx Calixto II "(Mauro Castellá Ferrer, 1610).
- "Good woman, as it is called this village?" - "Sir Knight, this is not a village, it is a city, this is Duio" (George Borrow, The Bible in Spain, the entrance to Finisterre Langosteira).
When the pilgrim xnx steps mythical Langosteira beach and currency to fund the huge promontory Nerio, Cape Finisterre, will leaving behind San Martin and San Vicente de Duio. Here lies the archaeologist Luis Monteagudo the great Portus Magnus Artabrorum, according to the coordinates of Ptolemy and here was his city, Dugium. Pilgrims will stepping on it.
But we heard the tradition, the old "Here there was a large city corrupted. Came the great emperor Charlemagne, a great Christian king, and wanted to make it but could not the great evil that they had, and the emperor marched disheartened, and returned before going to face the city and said: 'City Petrónica, God would make you, I do not I can ". The next day dawned buried the city.
Another version (in the area are endless) speaks of the presence of the Apostle Duio before his death, xnx during xnx his preaching in Hispania. But their efforts fail to appease those pagans who continue to worship their gods and ignore the solar cross. Discouraged, Santiago asks the Lord to make disappear under the water to that city forever. Hence Santiago march to Muxia, where the Virgin had appeared.
Cities "flooded"! The Lima (Antioch), Dugium ... all in FinisTerrae ("asolagamiento" of Duio included) reflects the extreme difficulty of the Christian religion to introduce those places xnx and among those people. We talked of the successive arrivals of the first sword of the Christian xnx religion in the region, as linked to ancestral beliefs and a world that grave, the little xnx that is observed, continue to surface. xnx The whole mythology of Atlantic Europe reflects Legends concerning the end of the world by flood. In the tradition of Scandinavian Ragnarok the gods down to fight with giants and then the world of the living is done away by the swelling seas.
Legends, myths ... until a few dreamers (Esmoris Rocamán, Monteagudo), click on the clavaron Langosteira: forty centimeters xnx appeared the first Roman road, the first houses, burials with flat tiles ... Dugium. xnx One of the mayors with more than a vision met, what was mayor of Finisterre, Ernesto Ínsua hit corridors and waiting room in search xnx of a dream: money to dig in Duio. But in Galicia thousands of settlements (with only about twenty worked poorly) do not know is why. But come other times and other people. xnx Meanwhile Dugium sleeps under the passage of the pilgrims. But they should know where to go in his footsteps, so we have.
But there is more, much more in the Costa da Morte, where the shadow of Santiago is present at every step. In ponds Lock lies another city "flooded" strongly linked to the preaching of the Apostle James: Valverde. Legend Collection Mardomo on-site at the foot of the pond, and handed down from father to son, says so, with all the freshness and ingenuity of those who live and own something, "the apostle walked xnx by these poor lands, preaching without success throughout the valley. As was the case no one got to pray, praying to God and his mother to give him sufficient forces to turn this town of Valverde, and ruin so hostile to the word of God. The Lord, as Valverde had not found in any person who wanted to know God, receive the Holy Baptism, xnx cursed the town that was submerged under the waters of the lake "(Collection of José María Lema and Eva Maria Lopez Añón).
I bring these old stories here just so you do not
