Abstract
Uma intervenção arqueológica de salvamento, desenvolvida em 1997 pelo Serviço de Arqueologia do Museu da Cidade (Lisboa), identificou três enterramentos infantis na zona da esquina NE do cruzamento da Rua de São Nicolau com a Rua dos Douradores (RSN3), em plena Baixa lisboeta. A relação destes elementos com as entidades arqueológicas da envolvência, em particular uma zona de acumulação detrítica e vestígios de uma construção (RSN4), permitem articular a informação e postular a existência de um espaço funerário datável da Antiguidade Tardia, presença cujo significado urbanístico se analisa aqui.
During a rescue archaeological excavation, carried out in 1997 by the Archaeology Service of the City Museum (Lisbon), three infant burials were identified in the NE corner of the intersection of Rua de São Nicolau to Rua dos Douradores (Sond.2) in Downtown Lisbon. The relation of these elements with the surroundings archaeological entities, particularly a detritic accumulation (Sond.3) and construction zone (Sond.4) allow to articulate the information and postulate the existence of a late antique funerary space, presence whose urbanistic significance is analyzed here.
