Products, such as garum, were exported to the whole Roman Empire.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the barbarian invasions and during the Arab occupation, and with the fall of the Empire, the primitive habitation area was slowly abandoned and the town turned into a fisherman-only inhabited place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the other hand, Muslims preferred to settle on strategic sites such as Palmela or Alc\u00e1cer do Sal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was only after conquering Palmela back from the Moors during the early 13th century, and the establishment of the Military Order of Santiago headquarters, that Set\u00fabal began to be repopulated, starting with Santa Maria hill and progressively in the downtown area all the way through to the present Troino Neighbourhood. In 1249, Dom Paio Peres Correia, master of the Order of Santiago granted a charter to the town of Set\u00fabal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In view of the difficulties of the residents regarding the entrance and sale of products from Palmela, Sesimbra and Alc\u00e1cer do Sal, and in accordance with a decision made by King Afonso IV in 1343, the term of Set\u00fabal was defined by Dom Garcia Peres, master of the Order of Santiago, after building the first walls of the village.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.18.7&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0|0px|0|0px|false|false&#8221; prev_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; next_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243;][et_pb_row custom_padding=&#8221;27px|0px|58px|0px|false|false&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.48&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.18.7&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;14px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.5em&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_3_font_size_tablet=&#8221;35px&#8221; header_3_font_size_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; header_3_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_3_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_5_text_color=&#8221;#939599&#8243; header_5_font_size=&#8221;12px&#8221; header_5_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Times New Roman&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Throughout the 15th century there took place a great development in economic activities, especially with the fees charged for entering the port.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1487, King John II ordered the building of an aqueduct to supply the village with water.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1489, Justa Rodrigues Pereira, King Manuel\u2019s mistress, obtained papal authorization to establish the Monastery of Jesus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On September 5th, 1494 King John II ratified the Treaty of Tordesillas in Set\u00fabal.

(Current Casa Bocage and Photographic Archive of Am\u00e9rico Ribeiro).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Throughout his life Bocage, sometimes controversial, sometimes brilliant, went through countless adventures due to his bohemian lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The poet, a military man, ran into troubles with justice and even went through financial difficulties.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He died on December 21st, 1805, in Lisbon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1871, a statue was inaugurated in his honour in the centre of Pra\u00e7a de Bocage (the City\u2019s Town Square).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The monument incorporates a statue of the poet by Pedro Carlos Reis (1819-1893).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Day of Bocage and the City is the Set\u00fabal municipal holiday, celebrated on the 15th of September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Two years after the poet&#8217;s death in December 1807, and during the French invasions, one of the headquarters was established in Set\u00fabal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For about a month, the city became the capital of the principality of Godoy, including the Alentejo and the Algarve.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The stationed troops, under General Solano, were included in Junot&#8217;s army.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The permanence of the invaders caused several violations. The Senhora dos Anjos Chapel was desecrated and used as stables. The Nossa Senhora da Consola\u00e7\u00e3o da Ordem de S\u00e3o Paulo Convent was occupied by the French Troops.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On April 14th, 1813, the people of Set\u00fabal enthusiastically welcomed Marshal Beresford&#8217;s troops.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Set\u00fabal was made city in 1860. The inauguration of the railroad between Set\u00fabal and Barreiro took place in 1861, and gas lighting began in 1863.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Around this time, Avenida Lu\u00edsa Tody was born (former Rua da Praia) resulting from the landfill made on the River Sado.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1926, Set\u00fabal was made district capital, and in 1975, made Diocese Headquarters.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221;
