AELAW Booklet / 3 Iberian Language / Writing / Epigraphy Noemí Moncunill Martí Javier Velaza Frías INTRODUCTION* The Iberian language is principally documented by more than 2000 inscriptions dated between the fifth century BCE and first century CE, drawn from a region of the Mediterranean belt that stretches from the Hérault river in French Languedoc to Almeria. It is currently an undeciphered language. We are able to read its texts fairly reliably and even analyse the briefest and most formulaic of them with some competence, but nonetheless are unable to understand its meaning. From a typological perspective, it is almost certainly an agglutinative language which may present ergative features. Its hypothetical relationships with other languages, ancient or modern, are, however, still unproven: although a relationship with Aquitanian or ancient Basque is not impossible, it is unclear whether this would be genetic or through contact. The study of the Iberian language, like that of the other Palaeohispanic languages, goes back to the works of the numismatists, from Antonio Agustín and Velázquez to Delgado and Zóbel de Zangróniz. They are responsible for identifying the script and deciphering the first signs. When Emil Hübner published the first corpus of pre-Roman Hispanian inscriptions at the end of the nineteenth century, however, the system of transcription was still very deficient and did not even serve to reveal that these inscriptions were in fact evidence of various languages that are very different to one another.

  • 'Gaulish' DEKANTEM
    Palaeohispanica 6, (2006), pp. 45-58 FROM LIGURY TO SPAIN: UNACCENTED *YO > (Y)E IN NARBONENSIC VOTIVES (‘GAULISH’ DEKANTEM), HISPANIC COINS (‘IBERIAN’ -(SK)EN) AND SOME THEONYMS1 Patrizia de Bernardo Stempel 0. A PRELIMINARY THEORETICAL REMARK. The number of varieties documented for a certain language is inversely proportional to the fixedness of a literary code within the the same linguistic tradition. In particular, the richness of diatopic varieties documented in the ancient Gaulish territories was emphasized by Whatmough in the middle of the past century, and the coexistence of various dialects of an ancient type of Celtic2 could also be proved for the Iberian Peninsula.3 Although much more work is to be done in order to identify all individual isoglosses and study their dispersion, we offer here some evidence regarding a specific one. 1. *yo > ye IN LIGURIAN ONOMASTICS. Already Giacomo Devoto and after him Michel Lejeune recognized the phonetic change *yo > ye as a recurrent isogloss in the Ligurian onomastic material,4 calling attention to - iugo Blustiemelo - fontem Lebriemelum, both in the Sententia Minuciorum. By applying the rule discovered by Devoto and Lejeune it has further been possible to understand more of the ethnics and place-names documented for ancient Ligury,5 such as: ———— 1 This is the revised version of the second part of a paper titled ‘Beyond the Italian Keltiké’ which was presented in Munich (30th of July 2004) on the occasion of the Symposium ‘Linguistic Frontiers of the Ancient Celts’ (= 4th workshop of the Aberystwyth project ‘Towards an Atlas of Celtic Place Names’).

Sólo para unos pocos no nos consta: intentamos buscar una explicación a este hecho aparentemente anómalo. Destacan entre los últimos contestani, lacetani y cerretani. Abstract AH the populi or gentes amongst the iberi, whose names we know thanks to classic texts, have an eponym capital with only a very few not on record.

Populi. El testimonio de los textos clásicos y de la numismática Es ya admitido de forma pácticamente unánime que desde los siglos V/IV a.C., la ciudad, -la ciuitas-, es la organización política que priva entre los llamados pueblos ibéricos y, por fechas no muy lejanas, también entre sus vecinos más o menos inmediatos de tierra adentro Uacetanos y vascones por ej emplo).

  • Aspects of Fides in Roman Diplomatic Relations During the Conquest of Iberia
    Fides Romana: Aspects of fides in Roman diplomatic relations during the conquest of Iberia. Sara Perley A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Master of Arts, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand. January 2012. ABSTRACT This thesis examines the ideology and reality of fides in Roman international relations, using the conquest of Iberia as a case study. It seeks to show that despite the ideology, the self-belief in Rome’s cultural superiority and the competitive nature of the Roman state resulted in the disregard for the precepts of fides in martial diplomacy. The first chapter looks at the role of fides in domestic and international society and examines how the ethical principle of fides developed into a nationalistic ideology. The second chapter investigates Roman conduct during the conquest of Iberia from the second Punic war until Tiberius Gracchus established a treaty with the Celtiberi in 178 BCE in light of this ideology. The final chapter reviews the reality of fides in Roman action in both Hispania Citerior and Hispania Ulterior during the Celtiberi and Lusitanian wars and the Roman quest for control. This discussion ultimately seeks to provide an analysis of fides in international diplomatic affairs and a justification of Rome’s choice of action in the conquest of the Iberian Peninsula. It emerges that fides was a principle appealed to only when it served the ultimate goal of commanders and the Senate. However, when faced with the realities of war, fides was sacrificed for success and dominion. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge and thank all those people who have provided me with inspiration, support, and encouragement over the last 18 months.

  • Map 27 Hispania Carthaginiensis Compiled by P.O
    Map 27 Hispania Carthaginiensis Compiled by P.O. Spann, 1996 Introduction For most of the named ancient settlements in the region covered by the map, the essential reference works are Tovar (1974; l989) and Sillières (l990). The preponderance of settlement was south of the Sierra Morena (ancient Marianus Mons) and along the east coast. Iron Age Iberian settlements of no known ancient name are too numerous here to be fully represented at this scale. Since they are largely unexcavated and their status (as oppidum or vicus) can therefore only be conjectured, most have been omitted. Further coverage of them is offered by Almagro-Gorbea (l987), Blanquez Perez (l992), and Ruiz Rodríguez (l987; l993). Likewise the Talayotic culture and Punic settlement of the Balearic Islands (Guerrero Ayuso l985; Harrison l988) cannot be adequately indicated at this scale. The archaeological sites with no known ancient name that are marked thus represent only a small portion of the settlements which existed throughout the region; they are primarily those which relate to the road system in Roman times. In general, Galsterer (l97l) is the authority for towns with titled or municipal status. Many, however, cannot be marked because their conjectured locations are too insecure. Sillières (l990) provides the most recent and reliable account of the ancient road system in the southern part of the map. Corzo Sánchez (l992) can differ from Sillières and should also be consulted for roads in Andalucía. Roldán Hervás (l975) presents a very general discussion of the road system north of the Sierra Morena, and Palomero Plaza (l987) provides a comprehensive account of roads through the province of Cuenca.

  • 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.
