Hill fort of Fazouro. It has been dated between the 1st and 3rd centuries AD. Foz, Lugo, Spain.
It is one of the most excavated coastal forts on the entire Galician Cantabrian coast and the only one that can be visited. You can see the walls, the large moat dug into the rock and part of the houses, all rectangular in shape except one oval in shape. Romanization caused the progressive abandonment of circular constructions - typical for Castro - and the transition to rectangular ones.
