摘要：Defining the roots of Iberian sculpture has always been a controversial topic. In addition to the local circumstances and social needs, a crucial importance has been given to the Greek trade, that would have supplied local societies with specific techniques and styles. However, Phoenician influence is seen today as a major impulse, not only because stone sculptures were also employed on the colonial context of the Iberian Peninsula, but also because Phoenician colonization changed significantly the organization of local societies. Recent excavations have shown-precisely the importance of the Phoenician presence at the Iberian Mediterranean coast. Some sculptures representing bulls coming from Sagunto to the lower Segura river are studied here under this perspective. They are considered as the first evidences of Iberian sculpture at this area, and their dependence from oriental ideologies is proposed.
