Olivia Reyes reveals the
secrets of the Roman villas of Segovia
The IE University professor publishes a
study about the Late Antiquity rural homesteadsy
EL NORTE DE CASTILLA:
10/05/2022
PhD Olivia Reyes Hernando, professor at the IE
University Archeology Unit, has just published the first
comparative study of the Roman villas in Segovia
province. This recent innovative research, which comes
to light, provides new keys to understanding the Roman
presence in this area of the Iberian Peninsula during
Late Antiquity.
According to Prof. Reyes, these IVth century BCE huge
residential properties share common elements that
distinguished them from other Castilia and Leon Roman
villas, even from Hispania, as the prevalence of triple
apses in some of their halls or other particular
decorative elements come from the East part of the
Empire.
