Ophiussa
Ophiussa, also spelled Ophiusa, is the ancient name given by the ancient Greeks to what is now Portuguese territory near the mouth of the river Tagus. It means Land of Serpents. == The expulsion of the ''Oestrimni'' == The 4th century Roman poet Rufus Avienus Festus, writing on geographical subjects in ''Ora Maritima'' ("Seacoasts"), a document inspired by a Greek mariners' Periplus, related that the ''Oestriminis'' (''Extreme West'' in Latin) was peopled by the ''Oestrimni'', a people that had been living there for a long time; they had to flee their homeland after an invasion of serpents. These people could be linked to the ''Saephe'' (Saefs) or ''Ophis'' ("People of the Serpents") and the ''Dragani'' ("People of the Dragons"), who came to those lands and built the territorial entity the Greeks termed ''Ophiussa''. The expulsion of the Oestrimni, from ''Ora Maritima:'' The "serpent people" of the semi-mythical Ophiussa in the far west are noted in ancient Greek sources.
