Moron (ancient city)

Moron was an ancient city mentioned by Strabo.

Several hypotheses exist related to its location, but a location in Lusitania, near Scallabis (modern day Santarém) is strongly considered.

[1][2] Strabo mentions that Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus made camp on an island near the city[3][2][4] possibly identified as modern Almourol on the river Tagus.
