Circa 1910
Location
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries
An Iberian settlement preceded Roman Segobriga. Following the final conquest of Iberia in 19 BCE Romanization proceeded rapidly, and during Augustus' reign the city of Segobriga became a Roman municipality. (Note that the name Segobriga refers to more than one site in Spain; it translates in Celtiberian to "victory city".)
