Keywords: Immigration, Mobility, Alieni, Augusta Emerita, Hispania, Epigraphy

Abstract

This work offers a general overview on immigration of extrapeninsular origin domiciled in Augusta Emerita from the analysis of the colony’s epigraphic documentation. We will study aspects such as the regions and cities of origin of these immigrants, their professional occupations, the causes that determined their mobility and the activity they developed in Augusta Emerita after their arrival. Chronologically, our contribution covers the period between the foundation of the colony in 25 B.C. and the promulgation of the Constitutio Antoniniana in the early 3rd century AD.
