Portus Cale
Portus Cale ( Latinised version for "Port of Cale", original Celtic name ''Callaici'', ''Cale'') was an ancient town and port in present-day northern Portugal, in the area of today's Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. The name of the town eventually influenced the name of the subsequent country Portugal. Early history Cale was an early settlement located at the mouth of the Douro River, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean in the north of what is now Portugal. The Roman general Decimus Junius Brutus Callaicus conquered the region and founded the Roman city ''Portus Cale'' in around 136 BC. At the end of Brutus's campaigns, Rome controlled the territory between the Douro and Minho rivers plus probable extensions along the coast and in the interior. It was only under Augustus, however, at the end of the 1st century BC, that present north Portugal and Galicia were fully pacified and under Roman control. During the Roman occupation, the city developed as an important commercial port, primar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Odacidae
The Odacidae are a small family of ray-finned fishes formerly classified within the order Perciformes, commonly known as cales, and weed whitings. They are related to the much larger families of the wrasses and parrotfish. More recent workers have classified this family within the order Labriformes, alongside the wrasses and parrotfishes, within the clade Percomorpha. Odacids are found in coastal waters off Southern Australia and New Zealand. They include species that feed on small invertebrates, as well as herbivorous grazers, some of which are able to feed on chemically unpleasant varieties of kelp otherwise unpalatable to fish. Genera The following genera are classified in the family Odacidae: *'' Haletta'' Whitley, 1947 *'' Heteroscarus'' Castelnau, 1872 *'' Neoodax'' Castelnau, 1875 *'' Odax'' Valenciennes, 1840 *'' Parodax'' Scott, 1976 (synonymous with ''Siphonognathus'' according to Fishbase *'' Olisthops'' Richardson, 1850 *'' Sheardichthys'' Whitley, 1947 (synonymo ...

Cales
Cales was an ancient city of Campania, in today's ''comune'' of Calvi Risorta in southern Italy, belonging originally to the Aurunci/Ausoni, on the Via Latina. The Romans captured it in 335 BC and established a colony with Latin rights of 2,500 citizens. Cales was initially the centre of the Roman dominion in Campania. To the period after 335 belong numerous silver and bronze coins with the inscription ''Caleno''. It was an important base in the war against Hannibal, and at last refused further contributions for the war. Before 184 BC more settlers were sent there. After the Social War it became a ''municipium''. The fertility of its territory and its manufacture of black glazed pottery, which was even exported to Etruria, made it prosperous. At the end of the 3rd century BC it appears as a colony, and in the 5th century (AD) it became an episcopal see, which (jointly with Tano since 1818) it still is, though it is now a mere village. The cathedral, of the 12th century, has a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Calé
The Romani in Spain, generally known by the exonym () or the endonym ''Calé'', belong to the Romani people#Population and subgroups, Iberian Cale Romani subgroup, with smaller populations in Portugal (known as ) and in Southern France. Their sense of identity and cohesion stems from their shared value system, expressed among the as the ('Gypsy laws'). Traditionally, they maintain their social circles strictly within their Endogamy, patrigroups, as interaction between patrigroups increases the risk of feuding, which may result in fatalities. The emergence of Pentecostalism has impacted this practice, as the lifestyle of Pentecostal ''gitanos'' involves frequent contact with ''gitanos'' from outside their own patrigroups during church services and meetings. Data on ethnicity are not collected in Spain, although the public pollster Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas, CIS estimated in 2007 that the number of ''gitanos'' present in Spain is probably around one million.

Cale, Indiana
Cale is an unincorporated community in Mitcheltree Township, Martin County, in the U.S. state of Indiana. History The community was originally named New Cale, and was located approximately one mile north of its present-day location. When John Walsh built a railroad through the area in the 1870s, some people moved from the original settlement to the new location to be closer to the railway. The two settlements became known as New Cale and Old Cale. By the mid-1880s the population had increased considerably and the new location became known simply as Cale by 1889. A post office called Cale was established in 1884, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1908. The name Cale likely takes its name from a former school, Kale School, which in turn was named for a local resident.
