Abstract
Se presenta en este trabajo una nueva inscripción
romana procedente, probablemente, del entorno
del yacimiento de Arucci (San Mamés, Aroche,
Huelva). Dicha inscripción se ha localizado en el
contexto del castillo reutilizada como material de
acarreo en las fases de remodelación de la fortaleza
a inicios del s. XIX, momento al que pertenece
una de sus últimas fases constructivas a gran escala
producto de la construcción de la plaza de toros.
El hallazgo de esta pieza supone un testimonio
epigráfico más del rico ambiente aruccitano así
como del proceso que históricamente ha sufrido
el yacimiento, convertido en cantera de materiales
tras su desaparición en la Antigüedad Tardía hasta
prácticamente el periodo contemporáneo.
In this work, a new Roman inscription is presented, probably coming from the area around the Arucci site (San Mamés, Aroche, Huelva). This inscription has been located in the context of the castle, reused as carrying material in the remodeling phases of the fortress at the beginning of the 19th century, a time to which one of its last large-scale construction phases belongs, resulting from the construction of the bullring. The discovery of this piece represents further epigraphic testimony of the rich Aruccian environment as well as the process that the site has historically undergone, converted into a material quarry after its disappearance in Late Antiquity until practically the contemporary period.
