This paper presents the preliminary results of a methodology for the classification and interpretation of geospatial data ac-quired at a discovered urban Roman site from the imperial period in 2021. The site is located in the pre-Pyrenean mountain range near the small town of Artieda (Zaragoza), known as El Forau de la Tuta. The systematic multisca...
Unraveling the short‐term behavior of the Earth's past geomagnetic field at regional scales is crucial for understanding its global behavior and, thus, the dynamics of the deep Earth. In this context, obtaining accurate full‐vector geomagnetic field records from regions where archeomagnetic data are absent becomes essential. Here, we present the fi...
The archaeological site of Ancient Termez is located in southern Uzbekistan. Despite the arid environment, the city benefited from its strategic position near two rivers, the Amu Darya and the Surkhan Darya. Its significance was mainly related to the expansion of trade routes connecting Eurasia. The city comprises several enclosures that attest lon...
The use of different data from satellite platforms for archaeological prospecting and remote sensing has been applied since the end of the 20th century. Although the current use of drones with different visible and multispectral sensors for small areas has partially replaced in some cases the use of this type of satellite information due to its hig...
Brimeda is a village in the municipality of Villaobispo de Otero, located about 3.5 km north of Astorga(León). A document from the year 878 describes Brimeda as a repopulation town, with a founding actin the year 854. The document precisely details the tasks of constitution of the new population, whichincluded not only the construction of an urban...
This paper presents the most recent comprehensive archaeological investigation at ancient Termez, a large site located in southern Uzbekistan along the Amu Darya river. The Joint Uzbek-Spanish team has worked there since 2006. After a first phase of investigation up to 2012, the campaigns restarted in 2018. The paper concentrates on
the pottery man...
Recent paleomagnetic studies have shown that important short‐lived intensity fluctuations occurred during the first millennium BCE. However, the knowledge of the spatial and temporal extension of these features is still limited by the scarce availability of robust data. In this study we focus on the study of the intensity decrease that took place i...
This paper presents a preliminary use of satellite imagery from the CORONA program in the reconstruction of thearchaeological landscape of two different sites: Ancient Termez (southern border of Uzbekistan) and Khatm Al Melaha(eastern coast of United Arab Emirates in Kalba area). This analysis constitutes the first step of the work carried out in t...
This paper presents an archaeological and archaeometric study of a range of Islamic ceramics (9th-17th centuries) from Termez (south Uzbekistan), a city which has been proven to be both a production centre and a trading post. Pottery was manufactured in a number of workshops located in the lower city (shahristan) and its suburbs (rabad) and is cons...
This paper presents the preliminary results obtained during the 3D recording campaign carried out in 2018 by the Spanish-Uzbek
IPAEB mission in the archaeological site of Termez (southern border of Uzbekistan). Ancient Termez is an important historical city
within the Silk Road located in the ancient Bactria region. The archaeological work performe...
El presente trabajo tiene como finalidad presentar el contexto arqueológico en el que apareció el conjunto de pizarras inscritas estudiado en este mismo volumen por P.C. Díaz e I. Martín-Viso. Dada la singularidad y entidad del conjunto para el conocimiento de la epigrafía sobre pizarra de época visigoda, su contextualización arqueológica ad-quiere...
Fecha de aceptación de la versión definitiva: 26-06-01 BIBLID [0514-7336 (2002) 55; 283-309] RESUMEN: En un trabajo anterior presentamos los resultados de una prospección intensiva en la comar-ca de La Armuña. En este nuevo estudio se procede a una interpretación detallada de los datos. Tras el tra-bajo de campo se observa que no existen indicios d...
Al analizar el panorama del mundo rural en el Bajo Imperio, especialmen te el siglo IV, se ha afrontado su estudio como si se tratase de un "canto de cisne" dentro de un proceso imparable de decadencia. Se han querido ver los antecedentes de este colapso en factores tales como las destrucciones provo cadas por los acontecimientos del siglo III, l...
En el territorio de la ciudad de Salduie/Caesar Augusta (Zaragoza) se han encontrado dos importantes bronces jurídicos que recogen sendos pleitos por la gestión de agua de riego: el Bronce de Contrebia o Tabula Contrebiensis, del año 87 a.C. y el Bronce de Agón o Lex Riui Hiberiensis, de época de Adriano. Estos epígrafes ponen de manifiesto la impo...
RESUMEN Las prospecciones y excavaciones realizadas en el territo-rio de Salmantica (Salamanca, España) permiten formular la hi-pótesis de una desaparición de la villa como residencia aristocrática hacia finales del siglo IV o principios del siglo V. En el periodo visigodo, el solar de la villa se destina a estructu-ras efímeras de vivienda, zonas...
We present the archaeological contextualization and the archaeometric characterization of slipped and nonslipped tableware and common wares from Termez in south Uzbekistan. The aims are, first, to evaluate the manufacture of pottery in the city and region (ancient Bactria) after the conquest of Alexander the Great in the late 4th century B.C. so as...
El trabajo que presentamos aborda el estudio de un epigrafe de fácil lectura pero de problemática interpretación procedente de Villamiel (Cáceres). El carácter rústico del documento no impide apreciar que en su labra se ha intentado acomodar el soporte a la forma de un termius. Esto, unido a la indiscutible presencia de abreviaturas en las tres pri...
We present the first full archaeometrical study of Kushan-Sassanian pottery from the Buddhist monastic complexes at Kara Tepe (Termez, Uzbekistan), recovered both in the pottery workshop and in the monastery, using a combination of analytical methods (XRF, XRD, SEM–EDS and OM). The study allowed the identification of the reference group, the corres...
La prospección arqueológica se ha revelado como una técnica fundamental para la obtención de datos en los estudios científicos a la vez que se ha convertido en una herramienta usada por las distintas administraciones al servicio del registro y protección del patrimonio arqueológico. La metodología de la prospección ha experimentado un considerable...
El Cuquero es un yacimiento de época visigoda, localizado en la parte noroccidental de la península Ibérica, cuya cronología ha sido establecida en torno al siglo VI. El asentamiento ha proporcionado un pequeño aunque homogéneo conjunto cerámico compuesto mayoritariamente por cerámica común y común de cocina, si bien a partir del examen macroscópic...
Salamanca lies on the right bank of the river Tormes, a tributary of the Douro, on the northern sub-plateau of the Iberian peninsula (fig. 1). Although hardly mentioned in Roman historical sources, it is a reference point for work on Roman territory because the surveyor Frontinus (
De Agrorum Qualitate
[ed. Thulin 1971] 1–2) used
Salmantica
(in Lus...
Termez was one of the great Buddhist religious centers in northern Bactria in the Kushan period, as evidenced by the notable monastic complexes sited in the city. The stratigraphic excavations and 14C analysis recently conducted at Tchingiz Tepe, in a monastic cell (sector RC) and in a space for worship (sector RA), provide new data on the complete...
The walled enclosure of Tchingiz Tepe is part of the urban complex of Ancient Termez in South Uzbekistan. Situated on a hill to the north-west of the city, the archaeological remains consists of an adobe wall, a monumental building located in the centre of the enclosure, various dwellings attached to the wall, and at least one pottery kiln. The stu...
El avance de los estudios de la economía agraria de la Hispania romana en los últimos treinta años viene marcado, especialmente, por el desarrollo de la arqueología en este período y, junto a ello, por la renovación conceptual y metodológica a la hora de abordar el tema. La enorme cantidad de excavaciones llevadas a cabo (tanto en el ámbito de los...
This work analyses the different patterns of rural settlements in the province of Salamanca from the Roman colonization (1st century C.E.) to the time of the Christian repopulation in the Middle Ages (10th to 12th centuries). The information was obtained from both intensive and extensive survey, as well as from the archaeological excavations carrie...
This paper studies a group of Roman remains comprised of a dam, a bridge and a nymphaeum, situated on the banks of the river Alhama and on the outskirts of the Roman city Graccurris (Alfaro, La Roja). Although the constructions have been considerably damaged by the destructive action of the river, the conservation of the nymphaeum is striking. It c...
In this paper we present the result of an intensive survey in the region of La Armuña (Salamanca). We define the Roman and Visigothic settlement in the land surveyed, especifying all the criteria which point to a cultural attribution and a typological classification. The analysis of the archaelogical materials in its context and the usefulness of t...
La actuel province de La Rioja est traversée par le voie que assurait la relation entre Tarraco (Tarragona), capital de la province romaine, et les régions moins romanisées du nord-ouest de la Péninsule Ibérique. Cette voie est décrite par l'Itinéraire d'Antonin en direction Est-Ouest avec la dénomination De Italia in Hispanias, mais aussi en sens...
This study makes known a hitherto unpublished funeral epigraph. The inscription was found in a place known as Las Abejas, within the town limits of Peñacaballera (Salamanca, Spain). The epigraph, in the form of a stele, was not cleaved from the block of natural granite in which it was carved. The inscription is located at the foot of the Roman road...
This study presents a hitherto unheard of milestone belonging to the XXIV roman road of Itinerary of Antoninus (Vía de la Plata). The inscription was found in the place know as the Peñas de Santa Cruz (Navagallega, Membribe de la Sierra, Salamanca). A reading of it leads us to suggest the identification of the Emperor Maximian as the most likely, a...
A study is made of Román remains located beside the Alhama River near the city of Gracurris (Alfaro, La Rioja). The site had already been plundered in ancient times so it was incomplete when uncovered, and a large number of the architectural materials had been moved from their original positions. The remains that are in the best state of preservati...
Si en el estudio de los catastros y el territorio de las ciudades romanas una de las principales dificultades viene impuesta por la falta de fuentes escritas que aporten datos al respecto, no es éste, ciertamente, el caso de la capital de la Lusitania. Augusta Ementa cuenta con una documentación excepcional, en contraste con la que es la tónica gen...
The study of ancient field systems engages the attention of present archaeological analysis. Most of these field systems are integrated in present-day landscape, and in some cases these structures are still in use, though some changes could have taken place in some of them. The analysis of rural cadastres often focuses almost exclusively on those a...
Al norte de Salamanca la Vía de la Plata atraviesa La Armuña, una comarca plana, con suaves ondulaciones en torno a los 8oo m. de altitud. La ausencia de restos de vía, unido al hecho de que no se haya podido localizar Sabaria, la mansio situada inmediatamente al norte de Salmantica, plantea serias incertidumbres sobre el trazado exacto de la calza...
