Adamastor was an unprotected cruiser of the Portuguese Navy commissioned in 1897. Adamastor undertook numerous overseas deployments to Portuguese colonies in Africa and Asia. She made goodwill and training cruises, including visits to Brazil and the Far East, reflecting Portugal’s global maritime connections. Her most politically significant moment occurred during the Republican revolution of 5 October 1910. The ship’s crew sided with the revolutionaries and Adamastor participated in the bombardment of the royal palace at Necessidades. Adamastor was decommissioned in 1933 and subsequently scrapped.

Beautifully decorated bronze cannon recovered on the east coast of Africa from the wreck of a Portuguese warship. I am told by the position of the thumb in the fist-shaped cascable is a “fig” and has a rude meaning in the Portuguese-speaking world.
