Also known as ''Enchanted Moura'', was a Portuguese Fable/Myth, perhaps several thousands of years in age. ''She'' was a Shapeshifter, who was ''Beauty incarnate''. But a Sorcerer placed a Hex on Her (and Her supposed ''Race''), confusing Her to Her ''true purpose''. This was to teach Man how to build with stone. Because of Her curse, Man was not given this skill, and had to learn it on His own (much slower). Moura was very strong, and could quarry many tons of stone brick for Her ''works''. Her ''Race'' lived underwater. ''Moura's Structures''  were often seen by Ancient Man as ''Homes of The Gods''. Her Cult had many variations over the Centuries.
