*The combination of Latin and Spanish in the title of the song causes my mind to find a connection in the Iberian Peninsula where, in tracing the applicability of the thought I find that with respect to Bell Beaker culture "Gordon Childe interpreted the presence of its characteristic artefact as the intrusion of "missionaries" expanding from Iberia along the Atlantic coast, spreading knowledge of copper metallurgy. Stephen Shennan interpreted the artefacts as belonging to a mobile cultural elite imposing itself over the indigenous substrate populations."[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Beaker_culture#Origins] Portugal has also been identified as one of the early centers from which agriculture and European Megalith culture spread. This is all prior to the end of the Chalcolithic age, the first step in the copper-bronze-iron progression which saw the dawn writing, of large (and bloody) empires, and eventually laid the groundwork for mathematics and astronomy.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronze_Age] The Peninsula was also the site of extended conflicts between Rome and other cultures, quite notably the second Punic War, and was eventually conquered and renamed Hispania.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_conquest_of_the_Iberian_Peninsula] | *The combination of Latin and Spanish in the title of the song causes my mind to find a connection in the Iberian Peninsula where, in tracing the applicability of the thought I find that with respect to Bell Beaker culture "Gordon Childe interpreted the presence of its characteristic artefact as the intrusion of "missionaries" expanding from Iberia along the Atlantic coast, spreading knowledge of copper metallurgy.
