Talk:Vila Nova de Gaia

Untitled
The name Cale or Gaia most likely comes from the celtic root "gael", with which celts referred to themselves. It is well known that celtic tribes inhabited the area before the romans conquered it.

There is no evidence that the goddess Gaia was ever called Cale, which was the most usual form for the name of the city. No archeological evidence of a cult of Gaia in the area has been produced. The fact that today the city is called Gaia, which is also the ancient greek name of the goddess (her actual latin name was Terra) is a fortuitous curruption of latin Cale or Gale.

Could it have been founded by the Greeks as an enclave? 192.197.178.2 14:21, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
