Scallabis (also ''Scallabi Castrum'', ''Præsidium Iulium'', ''Scallabis Praesidium Iulium'' or ''Colonia Scallabis Iulia'') was the Roman name of Santarém, Portugal. ==History== The first documented human occupation dates from the 8th century BC.〔http://www.museu-santarem.org/multimedia/Documentos/memorias_descritivas/memdescritiva_jardimportasol.pdf〕 There is also evidence of trade with the Phoenicians, due to its location as a commercial outpost on the Tagus river. The Romans arrived at this region in 138 BC, and settled in the city, then going by the name of ''Scallabis'', and limited to the fortified area currently known as Alcáçova de Santarém. A latter designation was "''Scallabis Praesidium Iulium''", given by Julius Caesar in 61 BC,〔http://www.igespar.pt/media/uploads/trabalhosdearqueologia/26/7.pdf〕 with the installation of a military camp next to the previous fortifications. Most of the citizens were then inscribed in the Sergian Roman gens. The city became one of the most important administrative centers of the Lusitania province in the 1st century AD, as head of a Conventus iuridicus, the Conventus Scallabitanus that included cities such as Olisipo, Seilium and Conimbriga.〔 It was connected by important roads to Olisipo, Bracara Augusta and was the place of a Tagus river crossing. With the Alan and Vandal invasions, the city became known as "Sancta Irene", the root of the current name "Santarém". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scalabis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
