Lisbon [Portugal] & The Phoenicians, Al-Andalus Star Fort, Moorish / Berber / Old World (130 images)

Howdy y’all. Today we’re going to be looking at the oldest known photographs of Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal. We will begin with another epic panoramic photograph of 19th century Lisbon, followed by a deep dive into the history of the city, both mythical and confirmed. We will browse through some awesome examples of Phoenician contributions to Lisbon and the greater world, followed by a collection of over 130 of the oldest photographs of Lisbon, Portugal (dated 1860-1930). These rare images, along with the seldom discussed history, should help us better familiarize ourselves with Portugal while also allowing us to view the absolutely immense architecture that made up Old World Lisbon. This includes one of the largest star forts to ever exist on the Iberian Peninsula, now reduced to one tower and a few interior walls remaining around the city. Let’s take a deep dive on a fully narrated video. Please share your thoughts and ideas below, be kind to each other, and I look forward to our deep discussion. Enjoy!
