“The Old Conquests [ ...]. In this landscape, marked by the signs of a foreign religion - churches, chapels on top of the hills, calvary and other little sanctuaries along the pathways, in fields and by the fountains - remain the most strong and perdurable traits of the Portuguese influence.”

(Geografia da Expansão Portuguesa, 1961, p. 21)
