Francisco Marfil Vázquez

The changes produced in the Roman State model from its foundation to its expansion throughout the Mediterranean brought with it the evolution of the civic centers in which power was represented. The arrival and subsequent domination of the Iberian Peninsula by Rome led to a decisive change in the configuration of the fora located in these provinciae, marked by the evolution from a Republican model to an imperial one, individual and unidirectional. These changes were reflected the evolution of fora archetypes developed at this stage and imported from the Urbs to the provincial capitals which acted as centres of their diffusion.
