Abstract


The study of Roman gold mines of Las Cavenes gives new data on the development of Roman mining in this Lusitanian part of Hispania so little studied until now. We consider the role that mining could have played in the new territorial planning and occupation, that provoked the provincial reorganisation of the beginning of the Empire; and at a regional level, the one documented in Salmantica, Bletisama and Mirobriga. The work carried out by our team has gathered archaeological evidence for the study of mining activities and for their incidence on the starting and the revaluation of farming resources in the region.
