LGV in Sigüenza 2010. San Vicente Martir Celebrations.
¡AVE!
LGV has participated on the celebrations of San Vicente Martir that were organized by AES - Association of Businessman of Sigüenza. The celebrations took place in Sigüenza on days 22, 23 and 24 of jarnuary.
We were vey lucky, because the weather treated us well. This could make possible to enjoy the celebrations without any problems.
On saturday morning we were in Arab's Camp that was ubicated on the castle's fields.
The castle is now a National Parador.
That morning we did a Combat Exhibition with sword and shield, half-hand swords and sword and shield against spears on the Plaza Mayor.
The Sigüenza's Plaza Mayor (Principal Square) is a very remarkable place for doing this kinds of events, because you can see the Cathedral on one side, and the Council Town with its arcades on the other side. It is a place with a very special atmosfere.
In the evening, arounf 7pm hours. It was recreated the battle for the freedom of Sigüenza from the Arab's hands.
After the battle we did another Exhibition Combat.
At that time the square was full of people and you could felt a great sense of enjoyment.
At 10pm in the night, in San Vicente's Square a very big bonfire was made, and those braves that dare jumped over the fire.
We fight with the light of the bonfire.
On Sunday the Arab Camp didn't exist any more and we became a Cristhian Knigts.
We have the pleasure that we could assist with our knigts clothes to the Sunday mass in San Vicente's Church that was celebrated in latin.
During the mass the musicians were playing their medieval instruments. That gave a very special atmosfere to the celebration and we think that everybody that was there felt the celebration in a special way.
Many thanks to the priet for its amability.
Just before lunch time we did another Combat Exhibition and that was the end of the
celebrations.
Here are the photos that we maked and we want to encourage you to visit Sigüenza.

I Conference about Segovia's Historical Recovery and Tourist. (2)
¡AVE!
Like we have talked to you, the last 18th of December we attend to the I Conference about Segovia's Historical Recovery and Tourist.
First of all, we visit the new Exhibition Place dedicated to the Jewish quarter of Segovia.
This Exhibition Place is located in the ancient house of the Jew ABRAHAM SENNEOR, who was Chancellor of the Exchequer for the Catholics Kings of Spain (Isabel y Fernando).
We highly recommend this visit. So if you go to Segovia and you have left some time after visiting the Acueducto and the Alcazar, we encouage you to go there.
The Exhibition Place dedicated to the Jewish quarter of Segovia has been thought in a way to be didactic, interesting and amused. All of this is possible, because all the new tecnologie that they allow us to use in order to learn many things about the Jewish culture and heritage, tactile screens, virtual books and many others cool things. The vitual synagogue is really curious and allow you to learn about the Shabat Celebration.
After that, we went to the Academy of History of Segovia, that is located in the ancient church of San Quirce. There we could attend to three interesting conferences.
The first conference was “Segovia and the Aqueduct” and was imparted by D. Aurelio Ramírez – Dr. Ingeniero de Canales.
The second conference was “Aqueducts and Roman Hydraulic" and was imparted by Inmaculada Teixell - Arqueóloga del Excmo. Ayuntamiento de Ayuntamiento de Tarragona.
The third conference was about the Roman Village discovered in Valladolid and the museum that has been created around it and eas imparted by Margarita Sánchez Simón - Arqueóloga del Museo de las Villas Romanas de Almenara de Adaja-Puras. Diputación de Valladolid.
It was a shame that we couldn't stay there for the afternoon's conferences, but the weather was very bad, and we choose to went to Segovia by train using the AVE's and this limited us our time in Segovia.
Thank you to everybody.

Visit to the Archaeological Site of Vega Baja in Toledo (Spain)
¡AVE!
In the 17th of October we were in the Second Opening Day of the Archaeological Site of Vega Baja in Toledo (Spain).
It was a really interesting experience, because the archaeologists that are working in the site are the ones that show you the site too. The explanation took one hour but in any moment was boring of to difficulty to understand, even for people like us that we don't have too much knowledge for the arqueological tecniques.
The site is quite big, an there is too much work to do for many years, but even in this moment you can appreciate its importance, because the "Códices" talk us that Toledo was the capital of visigodos reing, but until now, no one could discover any important visigodos traces in Toledo. For this reason this site will provide the confirmation.
From Ludus Gladiatorium Vulcanum, we encourage you to continue with this job, an many other that we know are being doing out of Toledo's walls. An we are sure, just in some time, this site will be a new point of interest for the people that every day visit Toledo.

GLADIATOR'S VIDEOGAMES
¡AVE!
Today we are going to speak about some videogames related to the gladitor's world and that we like them.
In this mini-game, from BBC's web, you have to equip three differents types of gladiators for their arena's fights. Only if the equipment is completely correct for that kind of gladiator, he will achieve the total victory.

In this other mini-game from Playmovil's web, is quite easy, but is worthy to wait the time for loading just to see the prologue film of the game, is really nice and funny.

This game has been released this year and is based in a several didactic books about history, that are well know over the world.
The video is really curious, because using really funny's mini-games, you learn a lot of silly little facts about the roman world.

At last, we remmember you this videogame, even when is some years old, and been played and finished meny times, is still one of our most favourites games. Is not a historis game, but is very amused. Its has a lot of details, like the diversity of equipment, types of gladiators, many differents arenas, and its has a very well achivement of balance of power betwen the differents types of gladiators.
