This fourth volume (Proceedings 4) presents the results of an international conference held at the Museo de los Origenes (Casa de San Isidro) in December 2008. The work is divided into three parts: Four studies on general aspects of the 'rock world' in the Iberian Peninsula, the chronology of the caves artificially created, the 'troglodyte' in the Greco-Roman tradition, and the chronology of rock-cut tombs. The second part looks at eleven studies of various regions and 'rock complexes' in the Iberian Peninsula ('San Vitor', in San Lorenzo da Barxacova, Parada del Sil, Ourense; 'El Bierzo'; the upper valley of the Ebro; 'San Martin de Albelda', in 'La Rioja'; the middle valley of the Cidacos river; the high valley of the Arlanza river; 'San Frutos del Duraton', Segovia; the suburbium and territory of Ercavica in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages; the territory of Sierra Magina; and finally, the Almagruz caves, in Purullena, Granada. The third part examines parallels in other Mediterranean regions, such as the 'rock city' of Matera (Italy), the valley of the Euphrates (northern Syria); the churches built on the rock of Lalibela (Ethiopia), and the 'rock world' in the provinces of 'Arabia' and Palestina Tertia in Jordan."

This volume collects the results of the archaeological excavations made in the so-called domus tancinus, in Conimbriga (Condeixa-a-Velha, Portugal). The work in part is based the 'Spanish Archaeological Mission' interdisciplinary research project funded by the Spanish Ministry of Culture, in Portugal between 2004 and 2008. Over 5 years a Spanish and Portuguese team worked in an intramural sector of the ancient city to understand the evolution and transformation of a Roman domus during Late Antiquity and beyond. The archaeological excavations show a very different picture of Conimbriga in post-Roman times and presents further information on the so-called 'Christian basilica' built in the domus tancinus.

Fifteen papers from a conference held in Madrid in 2005 on the subject of Gaul and Spain from the 5th to 7th century AD, looking especially at evidence for the migration and influence of various cultural groups across Europe. The contributors examine the problems within this subject, especially interpreting the material culture evidence, and go on to look in more detail at funerary assemblages in both Gaul and Spain for evidence of the presence and influence of other cultures at the time of the disintegration of the Roman Empire. Text in Spanish, French and German.
