La Lonja de Fisterra

In 130 B.C. Decimus Junius Brutus Galaico conqueror of Gallaecia, came to Fisterra and the Ara Solis made sacrifices for their victories. That was when the rocks Finisterre saw the sunset over the ocean waves. What the historian Florus collected in his work:

Cruz de Baixar, Fisterra

“Something more extensive was the conquest of Decimus Brutus, who tamed the Lusitanian and Celtic to all people of Galicia, and passed over the river of Oblivion, whose shores trembled with terror his soldiers; and having traveled victorious entire ocean coast, it did not withdraw its eagles until he saw the sun dive into the sea, and Skyfire drown in the waters; I could not look at without horror, without committing a kind of sacrilege”
