Map 25 Hispania Tarraconensis Compiled by S.J. Keay (Spain), R.W. Mathisen, H.S. Sivan, 1997 Introduction Spain The area of north-east Hispania spanned here encompasses a wide range of geographical differences which, in turn, embrace distinct cultural regions. One of the notable difficulties in mapping them remains the long history of piecemeal coverage of native and Roman sites by local archaeologists. Until recently, there had been few attempts to systematize the resulting data. The abortive series Carta Arqueológica de España listed archaeological sites of all periods, but covered only two of the modern Spanish provinces–Soria (CAE Soria) and Barcelona (CAE Barcelona)– which make up this region. Subsequently, archaeological authorities in the provinces of Burgos, Cantabria, Guipúzcoa, Guadalajara, Huesca, Navarra, Soria, Teruel, Valladolid and Vizcaya have produced catalogs of varying quality in the same tradition. More such catalogs undoubtedly exist in the archaeological services of other Spanish provinces (Jimeno Martínez 1993), although they remain unpublished for the most part. Roman settlement in the province of Girona has been the subject of a monograph (Nolla 1984), as has the hinterland of ancient Tarraco (Carreté 1995). Otherwise, since the 1950s many small regional surveys of very varying quality have been published in journals or monographs with very limited distribution, giving details of occasional discoveries of villas, inscriptions and material finds throughout the region. All this has perforce resulted in great inequality of coverage. Consequently, in this regard and many others, the publication of TIR Caesaraugusta and TIR Tarraco represents a great step forward for much of the area covered here. Every attempt has been made to mark those sites mentioned in the ancient sources whose location is known beyond reasonable doubt, together with a representative range of sites known from archaeology alone. Even so, the selection can only be an individual one. In central Iberia, where native settlement patterns continue into the Republican and early Imperial periods, a full range of native castros or (to the east) hilltop sites has been included. Certain villas are also marked, selected because they are well known or offer an important stratigraphic sequence. Similarly, most mausolea and important church sites are shown. Systematic survey data are not reflected, however, so that the visible density of settlement in any area is not necessarily an accurate reflection of the situation in antiquity. This said, there are some areas, such as within the province of Huesca (around ancient Osca), where settlement does indeed appear to have been scarce. Milestones have recently been synthesized for the province of Hispania Tarraconensis (Lostal Pros 1992), and comprise one of the main sources for marking roads, difficult though it is to do this with precision on many stretches. Areas of centuriation have frequently been claimed for this part of Iberia (note Ariño Gil 1986). At best, however, centuriation is hard to define here. Moreover, despite arguments to the contrary, its identification in the archaeological record remains fraught with interpretative problems. Consequently, none is shown. Many environmental changes have undoubtedly occurred since antiquity. This is most evident in the damming of streams and rivers, and has been taken into account where possible. There is also little question that the physiognomy of the mouth of the R. Ebro (ancient H(I)berus) has changed, but to what extent is unclear; the coastline here has at least been rendered approximate. France See Map 14.
