Una aproximación a la arquitectura doméstica en la ciudad romana de Lesera (Forcall, Castellón). La domus I
2022
In this article we study the remains of a first domus excavated in the Augustan municipium of Lesera (Forcall, Castellón). In the excavations, three construction phases could be distinguished that can be dated between the end of the 1st century BC and the Flavian period. Of these, the first and third are the best known and represent different moments in the process of cultural change of its inhabitants. The first house had an east-facing porch, it was divided into six rooms and was destroyed by fire around 30-40 AD. The third was built around 70-90 AD and presents properly Roman architectural and ornamental elements. It is a corridor house divided into four rooms: a kitchen equipped with a …
Estela antropomorfa con inscripción ibérica del Mas de Barberán (Nogueruelas, Teruel)
1998
The subject of this paper is a little known Iberian gravestele from Nogueruelas (Teruel). The find-spot, the Mas de Barberán, is close to the boundary with Cortes de Arenoso (Castellón). The piece is one of a class of stele charactised by figurative decoration and an inscription. The discussion focusses on the anthropomorphic shape of the piece, its iconography —the disk-cuirass—, and the inscription.
Analysis of Sagunto Ibero-Roman votive bronze statuettes by portable X-ray fluorescence
2019
Abstract The main objective of this work was the study of chemical composition of an important collection of Ibero-Roman votive bronze statuettes exposed in the Archaeological Museum of Sagunto (Spain). Precision and accuracy of the measurements were obtained developing a proper analytical method, also avoiding any possible damage to the studied objects using a portable energy dispersive X- ray fluorescence system. Principal Components Analysis (PCA) to discriminate between groups based on ratios Fe/Cu, Pb/Cu, Sn/Cu, Ag/Cu, Ni/Cu and Impurities/Cu were employed to observe differences between the used smelting, manufacturing processes and raw materials. The characterisation of bronze statuet…
Stèles funéraires d'époque ibérique
2003
We wish to present in this paper a general study of the funereal stelas in Iberian culture. We begin with the analysis of the Peninsular tradition preceding the development of the Iberian world in order to consider this type of funereal monument within the landscape of cemeteries which seem to be more and more complex and varied. We will assess the different groups of stelas (5th-1st centuries B.C.) on the basis of their morphology, iconography and, in some cases, epigraphs. We present some examples from the provinces of Castellón and Teruel which have been subjected to recent studies.
La fase del Ibérico final en el asentamiento del Torrelló del Boverot (Almazora, Castellón): dos piezas cerámicas singulares
2000
Since the end of 1988, when excavation was resumed at the Torrelló del Boverot site in Almazora (Castellón), large amounts of material —mostly ceramics— have been recovered, dating from the end of the Iberian period, which, chronologically, marked the end of the village's life. This paper discusses two unusual ceramic pieces from this late period, documented during the excavations that took place in 1995, undertaken in the central area of the site. The records obtained in this work matches that of a batch of materials donated to the Museum of Almazora by the amateurs who excavated this village in the mid-1970s.
