Valea Viilor (colloquially Vorumloc; German: Wurmloch; Hungarian: Nagybaromlak) is a commune located in Sibiu County, Transylvania, Romania. It has a population of 1,873 (as of 2011), and is composed of two villages, Motiș (Mortesdorf; Martontelke) and Valea Viilor. Each of these has a fortified church, Motiș fortified church and Valea Viilor fortified church. Both places were established and long inhabited by Transylvanian Saxons.

Motiș

Motiș village was previously known in Romanian as Motișdorf and Motișul. Alternate German names include Märtesdorf and Mertesdorf. In Latin records, it is called Villa Morteni.

It was first mentioned in 1319 as the property of Saxon counts Niklaus and Johann von Talmisch. In 1415, Mortesdorf was first called by its sole German name "Gemeinde Martin". Serfdom was abolished in 1848. Saxons made up the majority of the village population for centuries until the 1980s. The community emigrated en masse, chiefly to Germany; at that point, Romanians and Roma became dominant. By 2006, just one Transylvanian Saxon resided in the village.[2]

Busto di un flamine Il flamine marziale (latino Flamen Martialis) era il sacerdote dell'antica Roma preposto al culto di Marte.

Ocean regions with little phytoplankton High-nutrient, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) regions are regions of the ocean where the abundance of phytoplankton is low and fairly constant despite the availability of macronutrients. Phytoplankton rely on a suite of nutrients for cellular function. Macronutrients (e.g., nitrate, phosphate, silicic acid) are generally available in higher quantities in surface ocean waters, and are the typical components of common garden fertilizers.
