Alcântara (Lisbon)
(São Pedro de) Alcântara ((:aɫˈkɐ̃tɐɾɐ)) is a civil parish ((ポルトガル語:freguesia)) of the city and municipality of Lisbon. Its name is derived from the Arabic (القنطارة), meaning ''the bridge'', and refers to an ancient Roman bridge that once existed there, until the reign of John V. Located in the southwestern corner of Lisbon, along the northern margin of the Tagus River, Alcântara had a population in 2011 of 13,943,〔(Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE) ), Census 2011 results according to the 2013 administrative division of Portugal〕 in an area of 5.07 km².〔(Direção-Geral do Território )〕
==History==
Primitive utensils from the Paleolithic era have been discovered on the margins of the Alcãntara ravine, and signs in the area of Alvito and Tapada da Ajuda indicate a level of occupation in the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods. Around 1300, Bronze Age farmers and shepherds established small villages in this area, with a subsistence economy based on herding and the cultivation of cereal crops.
During the Roman era, the local area was called ''Horta Navia'' in honour of the Roman divinity Nabia, a goddess of rivers and water. The area was notable for a Roman bridge across the Alcântara ravine 〔The bridge was situated in a junction between the current ''Rua de Alcântara'' and ''Rua Prior do Crato'', perpendicular to the current railstops at Alcântara-Terra to Alcântara-Mar.〕 and, following the Muslim occupation, the area began to be referred to in terms of this bridge. The name ''Alcântara'', derived from the Arab ''al-qantara'' (القنطارة) means ''bridge''.
