Um altar funerário romano em Bustelo (Penafiel, Porto, Norte de Portugal)
Apresenta-se um altar funerário romano epigrafado, encontrado em 2020 no antigo mosteiro de
Bustelo (Penafiel). Registam-se as circunstâncias do achado, o eventual percurso da peça, após

funerários contemporâneos da elaboração do altar e sua utilização primária.This paper presents the study of an inscribed Roman funerary altar, found in 2020 in the old
monastery of Bustelo (Penafiel). The circumstances of the finding were recorded as well as the
possible post-Roman era route of the piece and its reuse. The study of the typological characteristics
of the support is carried out and the text is analysed from the epigraphic and historical points of

ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS IN THE PHILIPPINES
Inbound international student mobility (ISM), the inflow of students to the host country, has been a lucrative income generator or economic driver for many countries such as the US, the UK, Australia, and Malaysia. However, the Philippines is lagging behind in terms of ISM and little is known about it, thus this qualitative case study was conducted to find out the issues and challenges facing the international students, undergraduate and graduate, studying in the Philippines. Data were gathered through three focus group interviews from 20 international students from 17 countries studying in Baguio and Cavite. The stay of the participants in the Philippines ranges from 1-6 years. The data were transcribed and analyzed thematically. In the findings, three main themes emerged: problematic visa processing largely caused by corruption in the immigration office, lack of communication and information dissemination, and culture shock with eight sub- themes: pollution and momma (chewed betel nut spat with red saliva), racial discrimination, taking advantage of foreigners, language barrier, use of left hand in giving or receiving something, queuing, gays acting like female, and respect to younger ones even those lower in rank. The participants consider the visa processing as the most frustrating issue they have been facing. On the other hand, they reported that queuing in the bus and jeepney stations, in the supermarkets, etc. was a culture shock to them but has taught them to be patient and to follow order. Culture orientation is recommended to address racial discrimination and taking advantage of foreigners
Um suporte de época romana epigrafado e decorado com temática marcial em Viseu (Portugal)
The present text centres on an epigraphic find in Viseu (Portugal), a city that was, in antiquity, one of the ciuitas capitals of northern Lusitania. The piece in question is a stele that was later reused in contemporary buildings. Its most striking aspects are the (incomplete) representation of a warrior and the linguistic peculiarities of its short text. Both aspects are discussed, as well as the historical and urban context of the stele in the Roman city of Viseu.El objetivo principal de este texto es la presentación de un hallazgo epigráfico realizado en la ciudad de Viseu (Portugal) que, en la antigüedad, fue una de las capitales de ciuitas del norte de la Lusitania. La pieza en cuestión es una estela que se encontraba reutilizada en un edificio de época contemporánea y que destaca tanto por su decoración, al incluir la representación (incompleta) de un guerrero, como por las peculiaridades lingüísticas del sucinto texto que muestra. Se analizan ambos aspectos al igual que la integración de la estela en el contexto de la ciudad de Viseu.
[pt] O presente texto tem como propósito central a apresentação de um achado epigráfico realizado na cidade de Viseu (Portugal), que, na Antiguidade, foi uma das capitais de ciuitas do Norte da Lusitânia. A peça em questão é uma estela que se encontrava em reaproveitamento no edificado contemporâneo. Destaca-se, do ponto de vista plástico, pela figuração (incompleta) de um guerreiro, mas também pelas particularidades linguísticas do sucinto texto que apresenta. Discutem-se ambos os aspetos, bem como a integração da estela no contexto cidade romana
Unpublished Roman milestones of Geira (route XVIII of the Antonine Itinerary, north of Portugal) related with miles XXX and XXXI a Bracara Augusta
La uia noua o vía XVIII del Itinerario de Antonino tiene origen en época flavia
y establece la conexión directa entre dos capitales del extremo de la Hispania citerior:
Bracara Augusta y Asturica Augusta. Uno de los aspectos más impactantes en relación
con esta vía, teniendo en cuenta que no tie ne raíces en época de Augusto, es el gran
número de miliarios que le están asociados, lo que la coloca entre las que poseen ma yor densidad de estos soportes epigráficos en todo el imperio. Se estudian dos milia rios recuperados, en la década de 1990, enlas millas XXX y XXXI a Bracara Augusta, ubicadas en la sierra de Gerês (Terras de
Bouro, Braga, Portugal), atribuibles a los hi jos de Constantino I, haciéndose asimismo la
revisión de un tercero, de Maximino y Máxi mo, relativo a la primera de estas millas y de
descubrimiento más reciente. Una particu laridad de uno de estos miliarios inéditos es
el hecho de que conserva restos de pintura asociada a la inscripción. Se hace el estudio
epigráfico completo, también con enfoque al significado de estos soportes en el con texto paisajístico local.The route XVIII of the Antonine
Itinerary or uia noua, setting back to the Flavian period, came forward as a new direct link
between two capitals of the western territory of Hispania Citerior: Bracara Augusta and
Asturica Augusta. One of the most impressive
aspects related to this route, considering that
it doesn’t have origin in Augustan times, is
the large number of milestones associated,
which catapults it to the forefront of those
with the highest density of these epigraphic
supports throughout the whole empire.
This article presents two milestones attributable to the sons of Constantine, which
were recovered, in the 1990s, at miles XXX
and XXXI a Bracara Augusta, in the Gerês
mountain range (Terras de Bouro, Braga,
Portugal). A revision of the text of a third
milestone attributable to Maximinus and
Maximus and more recently recovered at
the first of these miles is also made. A peculiar aspect of one of the unpublished milestones is the fact that it preserves traces of
painting associated with the inscription.
A complete epigraphic study is carried out,
also attending the sense of these supports in
the local landscape context
