The rugged, parched landscape and fierce inhabitants of the Iberian
Peninsula resisted Rome's best generals for two centuries. Roman
Spain tells the story of this conquest, making use of the latest
archaeological evidence to explore the social, religious, political
and economic implications of the transition from a tribal community
accustomed to grisly human sacrifices to a civilised,
Latin-speaking provincial society. From the fabled kingdom of
Tartesos to the triumph of Christianity, Professor Curchin traces
the evolution of Hispano-Roman cults, the integration of Spain into
the Roman economy, cultural 'resistance' to Romanisation, and
surveys the chief cities of the Roman administration as well as
conditions in the countryside. Special emphasis is placed on social
relationships: soldier and civilian, the emperor and the
provincials, patrons and clients, the upper and lower classes,
women and the family.
