  • Structural Assessment of a Roman Aqueduct “Pont Del Diable” in Tarragona by F.E.M
    Structural assessment of a roman aqueduct “Pont del Diable” in Tarragona by F.E.M. Jaume FABREGAT1, Anna ROYO1, Agustí COSTA 2, Gerard FORTUNY3, Josep LLUÍS4. (1)Architecture Student, ETSAR, University Rovira i Virgili, Reus, Spain. [email protected], [email protected]. (2) Pd.D., Student, ETSAR, University Rovira i Virgili, Reus, Spain. (3) Pd.D., Informatics Engineering and Mathematics Department, ETSAR, University Rovira i Virgili, Reus, Spain. (4) Pd.D., Construction Department, ETSAR, University Rovira i Virgili, Reus, Spain. Abstract The object of study is a roman aqueduct which construction was ordered by Emperor Augustus the first century b.C. in Tarraco, a city in the north of Spain, today known as Tarragona. The city was declared Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2000, some restoration works were planed since then and those concerned the aqueduct as well. The restoration work consisted of a landscape performance and a physical and mechanical review of the aqueduct state in order to reinforce it if it was required. The landscape performance had the responsibility to rehabilitate a green area. Its direct relation with the River Francolí makes it a performance of great interest for the city, since it is its most important green corridor. The study analyzes the entire structure of the bridge considering several load cases. The purpose is to obtain data about the structure physical and mechanical behavior. With this information we will reach several conclusions concerning deformation and stress parameters. Hypothesis of load cases will take into account weathering effects since these would have changed stone properties through the years.

  • Recent Archaeological Research at Asturica Augusta
    Proceedings of the British Academy, 86, 371-394 Recent Archaeological Research at Asturica Augusta VICTORINO GARCfA MARCOS & JULIO M. VIDAL ENCINAS Iunguntur iis Asturum XXII populi divisi in Augustanos et Transmontanos, Asturica urbe magnifica (..) (Pliny NH 3.28). OVERTHE LAST 10 YEARS, as the result of the delegation of the management of cultural affairs to the Autonomous Community of Castilla y Le6n, uninterrupted rescue excavations have taken place in the town of Astorga, Roman Asturica Augusta (Vidal 1986a and 1986b; Garcia and Vidal1990; Vidal et al. 1990, 259-63; Garcla and Vidal 1993; Tab. Imp. Rom. 1991, 27-9; Vidal 1993, 309-12; Fernhndez 1993, 227-31; Garcia 1994). At the same time, rescue excavations have also taken place at Le6n, although on a smaller scale, the camp of the Legio VI1 Gemina (Vidal 1986c; Miguel and Garcia 1993). A total of more than 50 building sites have been subject to archaeological investigation, ranging from simple watching briefs to more-frequent open-area excavations. In some cases the excavated remains have been preserved beneath newly constructed buildings and incorpor- ated into public spaces' (Figure 1). From all of this somewhat frenetic activity an enormous body of histori- cal information has been derived, which has still to be studied in depth? Nevertheless it allows a new picture to be presented of one of the least well-known of the towns of Roman Spain? Literary sources Asturica Augusta is mentioned in classical literature on a number of occasions. The earliest reference, cited at the beginning of this paper, is by Pliny the Elder (AD 23-79), procurator of the province of Hispania Citerior Tarraconensis at around AD 73, during the reign of the Emperor Vespasian.

  • Demography Roman Spain
    CARRERAS MONFORT C. A new perspective for the demographic study of Roman Spain. Revista de Historia da Arte e Arqueologia n.2, 1995-1996; pp. 59-82. A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR THE DEMOGRAPHIC STUDY OF ROMAN SPAIN César Carreras Monfort* * Universitat Oberta de Catalunya e-mail: [email protected] In the last years, there has been an increase in the number of demographic studies of ancient societies, with the main aim to recognize the internal organization of the populations and, to some extent, how the resources of a territory determined patterns of distribution [Gallo, 1984; Parkin, 1992]. Actually, within the limits of the Roman society, these studies allowed us to revise again basic concepts such as the relationship between the urban and rural world [López Paz, 1994], or even, to discuss about the degree of urbanism that supposedly it is accepted for the Graeco-Roman world. The demographic analyses on the Roman period were recently favoured by a better knowledge now, of the urban perimeters of ancient Roman cities, and the patterns of rural distribution; thanks to the contribution of either the urban archaeology and the rural field-surveys [Barker, 1991] and cadastres studies [Chouquer and Favory, 1991]. Furthermore, the important contribution of papyrology also stands out, since they supply information on demography, which despite being basically about Roman Egypt, it can be extrapolated to other provinces [Hombert and Preaux, 1952; Bagnall and Frier, 1994]. These new documental evidences allow us to carry out a new estimate, from another viewpoint, of the population in a very particular province such as Roman Spain, and also they become a headway in the detailed study of population patterns.

    Historia de Cataluña History of Catalonia 1.1. Los orígenes de Cataluña El territorio de la actual Comunidad Autónoma de Cataluña ha estado ocupado desde tiem- pos Paleolíticos, aproximadamente 450.000 años. Durante el Neolítico se desarrolló la agricul- tura y la ganadería y con la llegada de las civilizaciones griega y fenicia en el s. IV a.C. se fue configurando la cultura Íbera. Cuatro siglos más tarde, se fundaron las ciudades de Tarraco- Tarragona y Barcino- Barcelona. Anteriores a estas fundaciones, en el s. III a.C., ya son enclaves importantes Emporión (Ampu- ries, Girona) y Rhodes (Rosas, Girona). 1.1. Origins of Catalonia. Humans have inhabited the land currently known as Catalonia ever since the Lower Paleolithic period, 450.000 years ago. The spread of agriculture and husbandry, beginning in the Neolithic period, changed the shape of the land. Later on, the arrival of Greek and Phoenician societies in the 7th century B.C. led into the development of Iberian culture. In the 1st century B.C, Tarraco-Tarragona and Barcino-Barcelona were founded after the arrival of the Roman Army to Emporion (Gerona) in the 3rd century. 4 1.2. El mundo medieval en Cataluña (S.IX-XVI) Frente a la expansión de Al- Andalus, hacia el año 710, se forman los primeros condados catalanes localizados en la actual provincia de Gerona y que pertenecían a la llamada Marca Hispánica. En el siglo X los Condados Catalanes alcanzan la suficiente importancia económica para independizarse del Imperio y se unen bajo la hegemonía de la Casa de Barcelona.

  • A Propósito Del Conventus Emeritensis: Consideraciones Geográficas, Arqueológicas Y Culturales
    A PROPÓSITO DEL CONVENTUS EMERITENSIS: CONSIDERACIONES GEOGRÁFICAS, ARQUEOLÓGICAS Y CULTURALES UPON THE CONVENTUS EMERITENSIS: GEOGRAPHIC, ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS Saúl MARTÍN GONZÁLEZ 1 Universidad Complutense RESUMEN: En el siguiente trabajo intentamos arrojar luz sobre el significado del conventus Emeritensis como entidad propia dentro del contexto de la Lusitania y aún, de la totalidad de la Hispania romana. Creada durante las reformas administrativas augústeas, sorprende la configuración de un vasto espacio sin aparente personalidad propia, que aglutina múltiples espacios geográficamente diferentes del Centro-Occidente peninsular. El hecho de que en el Bajo Imperio su capital, Augusta Emerita, fuese designada como centro de la Diocesis Hispaniarum en detrimento de otras urbes importantes como Tarraco o Cartago Nova , no hace sino aumentar el aparente enigma. PALABRAS CLAVE: Conventus Emeritensis , Lusitania , Augusta Emerita , Vettonia , periodo orientalizante , Romanización ABSTRACT: In this paper we try to bring some light upon the conventus Emeritensis as entity in the Lusitanian and, widely, also the own Roman Spain contexts. Created by the Augustan reformation, this astonishing huge extension unifies several geographically different territories without any apparent pattern. In fact, at the Dominate the capital city of this territory, Augusta Emerita, was designed as the core of the Diocesis Hispaniarum above main centers as Tarraco or Cartago Nova; thus this enigma is encouraged. KEYWORDS: Conventus Emeritensis , Lusitania , Augusta Emerita , Vettonia , Orientalizing period , Romanization The Hispania Ulterior Lusitania, the most Western province in the Roman Empire, was the main innovation within the administrative reformations ordered by Octavius Augustus, possibly at the 13 B.C. 2, by his second coming to Iberia.

Universidad de Barcelona RESUMEN: El presente artículo aborda la problemática de la posición de la ciudad de Tarraco (Tarragona) duran- te el enfrentamiento entre cesarianos y pompeyanos (49-44 a.C.), que finalizaría en la conversión de la población en una colonia romana. Análisis de los datos anteriormente conocidos (citas de las fuentes literarias y epígrafes en honor a Pompeyo Magno y Mucio Escévola), así como los nuevos estudios obtenidos a partir de la publicación de nuevos epígrafes. ABSTRACT.This article approaches the problem of the position of the city of Tarraco (Tarragona) during the con- frontation between Caesareans and Pompeians (49-44 BC), ending in the conversion of the city in a Roman colo- ny. Analysis of previously known information (quotes from literary sources and inscriptions in honor of Pompey the Great and Mucius Scaevola), as well as new studies obtained after publication of new inscriptions. Tarraco, Scipionum opus sicut Carthago phoenorum (Plin. HN 3, 21), fue la principal base romana en Hispania en tiempos de la conquista. Se encontraba tan solo a cinco días de navegación de Roma1 y, por el valle del Francolí, se accedía valle del Ebro. Tarraco era junto a Carthago Nova, a finales de la Re- pública, una de las ciudades de Hispania más destacadas desde un punto de vista económico, político y administrativo2; quizás esta población fuese la capital de la provincia de la Hispania Citerior a partir del año 197 a.C.3, como mostraría 1 Blázquez, 1975, 93 niega que Tarraco tuviera mal puerto, como afirma Estrabón (Str.
