Obidos is a town of approximately 3100 inhabitants and municipal seat of the municipality of Obidos, located in the Oeste Subregion, of the Estremadura historical province, in Portugal. The name “Obidos” probably derives from the Latin term oppidum, meaning “citadel”, or “fortified city”.
Roman occupation of the area was confirmed by archaeological excavations, revealing the existence of a Roman city civitas near the hilltop on which the village and castle were established. This Roman settlement is most certainly the mysterious Eburobrittium, cited by Pliny the Elder as situated between Collipo and Olisipo. Archeological surveys determined the remains of a forum, baths and other Roman structures near the settlement.
