Abstract
This paper suggests that the indigenous town of Salduie/Salduvia could be founded at the end of the second century BC, maybe by grouping populations of the surrounding area. This hypothesis is based on the total absence of Salduie/Salduvia in the ancient sources (with the exception of a text in Pliny), its mention in Latin inscriptions of the first century BC (Ascoli Bronze and tabula Contrebiensis), as well as the coinage of coins in the town around 100 BC.
Highlights
De acuerdo con Plinio, la colonia romana de Caesar Augusta fue fundada junto al río Ebro, en el solar de lo que antes era la ciudad de Salduvia, perteneciente al pueblo indígena de los sedetanos. 1 Plinio no proporciona ninguna otra información sobre esa población
