• The numerical superiority they enjoyed with their new mercenaries; • The superior quality of their legions, probably the finest in the Roman army; and, • Overconfidence bred from seven years of campaigning without a serious defeat. Had the Scipios actually faced only 35,000 Carthaginians with over 50,000 legionnaires and mercenaries as they believed, their chances for success would have been good. But Hasdrubal Barca had two additional detachments: 3,000 Numidian cavalry under Masinissa and 7,500 warriors under Indibilis. And Hasdrubal Barca also were unable to obtain more troops from had a trick up his sleeve that was to Historical Background Italy, due to the threat there from throw the entire balance over in the Following the defeat of Hasdrubal Barca Hannibal.

Developing Identities Within Roman Iberia: Hybridity, Urbanism, and Economics in Southern Iberia in the Second and First Centuries Bc
DEVELOPING IDENTITIES WITHIN ROMAN IBERIA: HYBRIDITY, URBANISM, AND ECONOMICS IN SOUTHERN IBERIA IN THE SECOND AND FIRST CENTURIES BC BY PHILLIP JAMES MYERS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Classics, Ancient History, and Archaeology School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham June 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the development of identities within Iberia during the Roman conquest of the peninsula through the lens of cultural hybridism, urbanism and economic changes. The aim is to explore how local Iberian communities evolved culturally through centuries of pre-Roman contact, and how these interactions fuelled later adaptations to Roman rule. Iberian communities, within this context, did not simply ‘become Roman’ but many acculturation theories have struggled to create alternatives to the ‘Romanization’ model successfully. While ‘Romanization’ is clearly problematic, this thesis will challenge and adapt several acculturation models to explore the visibility of cultural hybridity within ‘Roman’ and Iberian communities, and alternatively suggest the emergence of a pan-Mediterranean cultural background. -
Iberians' Andalusia
Iberians’ Andalusia etween the VII and I centuries BC, in the area of southern Spain corresponding to the current provinces of Jaén, Cordoba and Granada, the Iberians left an extraordinary archaeological heritage, witness of a culture - partly still unknown - which lost its identity, customs, language and writing with the Roman conquest. This widespread heritage is the fil rouge of the Iberians’ Andalusia Smart Way, divided into three thematic tourist itineraries. Jaén – A journey to the time of the Iberians at the beginning of the IV century BC and consists of nine places in the province of Jaén, oriented to the east, towards the sunrise. including the fortified cities of Cástulo in During the spring equinox and the fall equinox, Linares, Puente Tablas in Jaén and Giribaile in that is, between March 20th and 25th and Vilches, the sanctuary of the Cueva de la Lobera between September 20th and 25th, the first in Castellar, the princely tombs of Toya and rays of dawn illuminates the figure of the Hornos in Peal de Becerro and the sculptural female divinity to whom a sanctuary near the sets Cerrillo Blanco de Porcuna and El Pajarillo door is dedicated. Next to it there is also a de Huelma. The latter is visible in the museums shrine built on terraces, where several caves of Jaén: the ideal starting point of the proposed stand out and that most likely were part of an itinerary.

Romanization Ofspain; Socio-Political Aspect~)
Romanization ofSpain; socio-political aspect~) J. B. TSIRKIN SUMMARY.— Spain on tIte eve of tIte Rornanization process was far from a uniforrn whole. Phoenician and Greek colonies were srnall but very significant celis of a developed slaveowning society. In Southem Spain Tartessis existed for quite a long period and afier its desintegration on its remainder sprang up sorne petty kingdoms. Apart frorn these, in tIte South and Soutbeast of tbe Iberian Pe- ninsula and, as an exeption, in tIte East in one case, emerged primitive «forne sta- tes’>. city-states cosisting of a city centre plus an agricultural area. Besides there were also several communities that still retained a clan society. Sorne of these so- cieties were about change into states, each in its own specific way. Sorne Iberian tribes such as tIte Ilergetes and tIte Edetani ewere tunning into monarchies on a tribal baasis, whereas tIte Celtiberians were envolving as an aristocratic republie. Other clan and tribal arnalgamations in tbe Indo-Furopean and non-Indo- European zones of tIte Peninsula as weB were more retarded and backward, cadi to a dofferent extent. Ihe further evolution was to a great extent interrupted by tIte Roman conquest. PART 1 Romanization is a cornplex and manifoid process including four ma- jor aspects. The first is economic Romanization. j.c. tIte integration of a provincial economy into an imperial nne. Secondly. it is social Romaniza- tion. j.c. the spreading in tIte provinces of tIte social relations of antique slave-owning society in its Roman variety including classical slavery. TIte third aspect of Romanization is political. -

Mints of the Iberian peninsula during the 6th to 1st centuries BC Geography and ethnics The Iberian Peninsula was inhabited by a remarkable variety of cultures with very different levels of social, political and economic development, depending on whether they were located on the coast, where contacts with traders and sailors allowed many advances and innovations to take place, or inland, where access was more difficult. Of the products which the first seafarers sought in Iberia, silver was one of the most in demand. Silver was soon integrated into the commercial life of the most important populations of the Spanish Mediterranean coast, becoming a form of currency. 1 Universitat de València. This paper is the lecture which I delivered to the RNS in London on 20 December 2016 at the time of receiving the Society’s Medal. 2 PERE PAU RIPOLLÈS Greek style coinages The first coinages of the Iberian Peninsula were minted at the Phocaean colony of Emporion, towards the late 6th century BC, following a model of minting similar to the one developed in Massalia, another Phocaean colony in southern France. The weight standard is Phocaean. At the beginning, Emporion struck heavy denominations (pl. 1, 1), but then, during the 5th and 4th centuries BC, its coinage was characterised by a reduced weight, most of the coins weighing less than 1g, and by a great diversity of types (pl. -

Nature and Impact of the Roman War Effort in Spain, 218/217–197 Bce
WAR IN OUTER SPACE: NATURE AND IMPACT OF THE ROMAN WAR EFFORT IN SPAIN, 218/217–197 BCE Frederik J. Vervaet and Tony Ñaco Del Hoyo Introduction In 219 bce, a Roman senatorial commission was sent to Carthage to hand over a threatening complaint about the recent conquest of Sagunt, Rome’s most faithful ally on the Iberian Peninsula.1 In consequence of the Carthaginian Senate’s decision to back Hannibal’s policy of aggression, a powerful consular army was sent to North-eastern Spain in 218, as a strategic response to thwart Hannibal’s march on Italy in what was rapidly evolving into a ‘global war’ all across the Western Mediterranean, comprising Italy, Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica, Illyria, Africa and, last but not least, the Iberian Peninsula. At the outbreak of the Second Punic War, large tracts of Spain already were an integral and important part of Carthage’s sphere of power, as the Barcids had \ rmly established Carthaginian control of the Southern part of the peninsula. From the Roman geopolitical point of view, however, the war against the Carthaginians and their sundry allies in Spain really was a kind of ‘war in outer space’. This paper will indeed argue that both the geographical conditions and the extent of the Spanish theatre of war would deeply affect the nature and impact of the Roman presence in Spain, and this not only during the Second Punic War and its immedi- ate aftermath, but also for the following two centuries. Both the tremendous strain the war in Italy and Sicily put on Rome’s limited number of regular of\ cials cum imperio and the importance of the ‘Spanish front’ impelled the Senate to have the People create a remark- able series of proconsulatus extraordinarii.
