Resumen: En los últimos años, ha habido un incremento en la calidad de los datos sobre cerámica romana, en relación con una clasifi-cación y cuantificación más precisas. Esto sig-nifica que los investigadores pueden combinar datos cerámicos de amplios territorios para observar tendencias generales en comercio, transporte y consumo. El presente estu...
Las redes de transporte ofrecen un conjunto de información que ayuda a comprender la realidad de nuestro pasado a partir de aspectos vinculados a la economía, la política o la sociedad. En este artículo se aborda cómo, a través del uso del Análisis de redes, es posible obtener información nueva acerca de aspectos tan fundamentales como el transport...
The entry provides an overview of the evidence for the development and variety of roads from prehistory to the Medieval period, with special attention to the Ancient Near East and the Roman world. Research methodologies related to the identification and study of the physical remains of roads are discussed, as well as spatial and network analyses an...
The use of formal modelling and computational simulation in studies of the Roman economy has become more common over the last decade. But detailed critical evaluations of this innovative approach are still missing and much needed. What kinds of insights about the Roman economy can it lead to that could not have been obtained through more establishe...

En los últimos años, ha existido un creciente interés en los conventus iuridici de la Hispania romana
como una división provincial original. El presente artículo pretende ampliar la discusión sobre la
forma de los conventus y la gira judicial de los gobernadores y sus asistentes (iuridici), de acuerdo
con la demografía y la accesibilidad al transpo...
One important part of ancient urbanism studies has been focused on analysing the typology and evolution of ‘private’ house. Part of these particular buildings with both public and private functions evolved over time, showing the different necessities of the society in each period. The Tetrastylon project aims to solve a surprising issue related to...
This article provides a short history of the methods and tools developed by the Pelagios initiative: a series of seven projects dedicated to linking digital historical resources based on the geographic places to which they relate and refer. The first section of the article situates the work within the wider field of semantic and geospatial technolo...
This article, which forms the second part of a two-part article in this volume, reflects on what we argue to be the most crucial element of any Linked Data enterprise: its community. The first section discusses a variety of funded and unfunded activities conducted under the aegis of Pelagios, and specifically two ‘small grant’ programmes that drama...
In 2019, the Viator-e project began with the aim of collecting, digitising, analysing and disseminating, via an online platform, data on the Roman roads of the western territories of the Roman Empire. This article has been designed to briefly present the Viator-e project, its objectives and the motivations behind its design and implementation. The...
Transport routes are basic elements that are inextricably linked to diverse political, economic, and social factors. Transport networks may be the cause or result of complex historical conjunctions that reflect to some extent a structural conception of the political systems that govern each territory. It is for this reason that analyzing the evolut...
This paper attempts to analyse the land transport in Roman times in mountainous areas, taking into account the most feasible location for the road infrastructures as well as the conditions for different means of transport. With the use of different GIS applications such as LCP (Low Cost Paths) and Network analysis, the study aims to recognise the t...
The analysis of Roman infrastructures, which helps to understand the transport costs, the commercial routes and the territorial configuration, is an indispensable way to know the benefits and shortcomings of the transportation system created in Roman times. It is well known that the Roman Empire built the first big transport network in Western Euro...

The paper shows the research on urban pattern of regio IV of Complutum Roman city: a geophysical survey accompanied by the study of some archaeological remains recently excavated, and the documentation from 19th century excavations. So, it has been possible to generate a regio IV urban design new pattern, and identify different archaeological build...
Recogito 2 is an open source annotation tool currently under development by Pelagios, an international initiative aimed at facilitating better linkages between online resources documenting the past. With Recogito 2, we aim to provide an environment for efficient semantic annotation—i.e., the task of enriching content with references to controlled v...
Les darreres excavacions en la ciutat romana de Iulia Lybica (Llívia) des del 2013 al 2015 van proporcionar noves dades sobre el forum de la ciutat. La major part de les excavacacions recents combinades amb la geofísica defineixen quasi completament la distribució del fòrum excepte en la part sud. A més a més, aquestes excavacions han subministrat...
This paper discusses an emerging cloud of Linked Open Data in the humanities sometimes referred to as the Graph of Ancient World Data (GAWD). It provides historical background to the domain, before gong on to describe the open and decentralised characteristics which have partially characterised its development. This is done principally through the...
Los denominados como Recintos‐Torre de La Serena comprenden diversos tipos de asentamientos fortificados, tanto en llano como en altura, que se han relacionado tradicionalmente con la romanización de esta zona del suroeste peninsular. Dado su pequeño tamaño, lo reducido de los espacios prospectables y la poca accesibilidad de estos sitios arqueológ...
In the last years, the use of geographical information systems has been common in many historical and geographical studies. Perhaps one of the least known applications is network analysis, a series of functions related to hydrology and mobility. Since 1994, researchers have used network analyses to understand costs and time expenditure in transport...
In this paper we describe the process of capture and analysis of low altitude aerial images of the site of Contributa Iulia. Specific conditions when these images were taken has led to obtaining a significant amount of data (mainly crop-marks) on the shape and internal structure of the layout of the Roman city and its surroundings. We will explain...
In this paper we have two main objectives. The first is the presentation of fieldwork and geophysics assisted with GPS, GIS and other Spatial Technologies applied to archaeological research. The advantage of this approach is the scarce aggression to soils and environment and the request of smaller economic and temporary resources than other archaeo...
LXX, julio-diciembre; 131-149] RESUMEN: Este trabajo tiene un doble propósito. Por una parte, se presentan métodos de prospección superficial, geofísica y sondeos que han estado asistidos con tecnologías geoespaciales aplicadas a la Arqueo-logía. Este tipo de intervención destaca por su escasa agresión al subsuelo y al entorno y el requerimiento de...
RESUMEN: En el presente artículo se pretende mostrar cómo, a través del estudio de la red de infraestructuras, se puede analizar y valorar la importancia de los distintos territorios del mundo romano. Además también se ofrece una hipótesis cuantitativa de los costes del transporte que pueden ayudar a justificar las distribuciones de material, en lo...
La movilidad es uno de los factores claves a la hora de entender el grado de complementariedad y cohesión de cualquier Estado. Las políticas de infraestructuras de transporte modelan junto con las con las condiciones geográficas esta movilidad. Este artículo trata de analizar la movilidad en la Península Ibérica a lo largo del tiempo, desde época r...
