This paper relates the Ciceronian sources and the Latin inscriptions where Minerva is mentioned as custos urbis of Rome with the bas-relief of the goddess in one of the towers in the walls of Tarraco. In the same tower was also found an inscription to Minerva. As an exponent of Roman civilization, Minerva armifera operated as a protecting divinity of Tarraco, the first Roman foundation out of Italy in the context of the Hannibalic war.
