THE LOST BOXES



[EN] Stories told from time immemorial tell that when the great fire in one of the secret houses of the Society burned down, the archive of boxes in which symbols and relics of the Dead Warriors accumulated over the centuries were deposited also burned down. 

From time to time some of these boxes have appeared with obvious fire marks, a "LOST BOX" stencil and a skull, one of the symbols of the Society, are painted on the lid. It is suspected that DWS members continue to recover boxes from the ruins of the archive.

We also know that there have been reported finds of some at locations near gravesites studied by the Dead Warriors Society.

If you find any of the "Lost Boxes" you can report your findings in the comments so that we can continue mapping the boxes.

Send photos of the "Lost Box" for us to authenticate and identify it to:  Google Drive/ Lost Boxes.


 [PT] Histórias contadas desde tempos imemoriais narram que, quando se deu o grande incêndio de uma das casas secretas da Sociedade, ardeu também o arquivo das caixas onde eram depositados símbolos e relíquias dos Guerreiros Mortos  acumulados ao longo dos séculos. 

De tempos a tempos têm aparecido algumas dessas caixas com evidentes marcas de fogo, um stencil "LOST BOX" com um crânio, um dos símbolos da Sociedade, estão pintados na tampa. Suspeita-se que membros da DWS continuem a recuperar caixas das ruínas do arquivo.

Sabemos ainda que têm sido reportados achados de algumas em locais próximos de túmulos estudados pela Dead Warriors Society.

Se encontrar alguma das "Lost Boxes" pode reportar nos comentários o seu achado de modo a que possamos continuar o mapeamento das caixas.

GUERREIRO DWS#57 WARRIOR

  Mateus da  Cunha 1530 [EN] At present Pombeiro da Beira is a village lost in the landscape of the Serra do Açor. It was once a village and the seat of a municipality with enough economic importance to establish a manor given to the noble family of the Cunhas. In armour in the manner of the first quarter of the 16th century, the 7th Lord of Pombeiro, Mateus da Cunha, lies in prayer on a tomb that, we suspect, was not made for the space it occupies today. [PT] No presente Pombeiro da Beira é uma aldeia perdida na paisagem das faldas da Serra do Açor. Foi outrora vila e sede de um concelho com importância económica suficiente para nela ser estabelecido um senhorio entregue à nobre família dos Cunhas. Armadurado à maneira do primeiro quarto do século XVI o 7º Senhor de Pombeiro, Mateus da Cunha, jaz deitado em oração sobre uma arca tumular que, suspeitamos, não foi feita para o espaço que hoje ocupa.

Dead Warriors Society

[EN] It is an author project that emerged in 2009. That was a year of many trips around the country. The systematic collection of documentation and visits to medieval tombs where offensive and defensive weaponry is depicted, began to accumulate dozens of copies of these memorials and fill many notebooks. As research went on, we realized that there were no studies in the perspective of figurative weaponry or even of its relation to the various classes of warriors in medieval Portugal. In fact there are some epigraphic studies and others of art history. Others are published in monographs of patrimonial assemblages, without study, and their existence is only mentioned in a kind of accessory cartography. Some swords figuring in motions with tomb effigy have now begun to be published, though in a very generic way, usually based on earlier art history texts, adding a few lines about the weapon represented.    Our differentiated proposal aims at the detailed study and p...
