About Monte Areo

Historic, Archaeology, Interesting Places, Other Archaeological Sites

El monte Areo, o monte de San Pablo , es un monte que se encuentra entre los concejos asturianos de Gijón y Carreño (España). Tiene unos 7 km de longitud y su máxima cota se sitúa en los 264 metros.

La denominación de monte de San Pablo es debida a que existía una capilla en su cima dedicada al apóstol, hoy desaparecida.^[1] Este lugar fue emplazamiento de las Aras Sextianas, monumento en honor a César Augusto emperador de Roma, erigido hacia el año 19 d. C. como honor por el triunfo de las tropas romanas ante las tribus astures que poblaban la zona.

Etimológicamente la palabra Areo podría provenir de monte de Iroba o monte de las Aras.^[2]
