其他摘要:Our work brings an approach to the landscape of Corduba’s funerary areas during the High Imperial Period, subjected to the vicissitudes of a living city which alternated moments of expansion and contraction. This landscape probably was also object of strong speculation, given the sacrifice involved in dedicating suburban land of enormous economic potential for funerary purposes, and the consequent high price of loci. At this respect, we believe to have detected clear examples of well-planned divisions of the terrain into lots in the form of enclosures, occasionally reinforced by mensurae sepulcri. All this is analyzed through two especially significant sepulcreta recently excavated.
