Museum in Beja. Núcleo Museológico Rua do Sembrano is a new museum which is situated above Roman excavations.
You can see the Roman excavations through a glass floor. The museum shows many artifacts from a long period of time. There is a fist axe which is probably 1 million years old. The museum has a clear timetable and shows many objects from the region, a region which is loaded with megalithic places.
Very special is the bull that they have found in an Iron Age grave, dated 600BC. The figure of the bull represents the uppergod Baal of the Phoenicians. In Punic culture, the bull represents abundance, wealth, power and strength. So this discovery shows once again the intensive cultural influence over a wide area.
