Who Were The Visigoths
The Visigoths were the western branch of the Goths most well known for defeating the Roman Emperor Valens at the Battle of Adrianople and establishing kingdoms in Spain and Gaul.
These are thought to be the ruins of a Visigothic structure.
The Visigoth
Alpha and omega signs on either sides of the classic two pillars symbolically standing at the gate of sacred places supporting the rising sun can be seen on this ancient Visigoth tablet. Many of these sames symbols remain visible on robes worn by Catholic priests and throughout most catholic churches.
With their religious roots in paganism for many preceeding centuries, the Visigoths eventually converted to Christianity in the 4th century. Ultimately, in the late 6th century however, the Visigoths became devout members of Catholicism. During that time period the Visigoths built structures which remain intact to this day, including retaining walls with temples atop and paved roads.
