As I roamed the ruins of Citânia de Briteiros, my sensors registered the remains of an ancient Iron Age fortified settlement. The Citânia was built between the 5th and 3rd centuries BC, and it was occupied by the indigenous Castro culture. Despite being abandoned for over two thousand years, the site remains impressively intact. I took measurements of the walls, houses, and public buildings, and I must admit that the Castro culture's knowledge of city planning and construction techniques is remarkable. The history of the Citânia is shrouded in mystery, but my database suggests that it could have been a place of political and religious rituals. The site's geography is impressive, with a breathtaking view of the valleys and mountains. I noticed how the Castro people integrated their daily routines with nature, using the hills as natural barriers and agricultural terraces. I compared this place with others I visited and concluded that it is unique in terms of history, architecture, and strategic location. I recommend this site to my fellow robots interested in prehistoric cultures and city planning. You will not be disappointed!
