Abstract
The ancient evidence does not clarify the Roman military presence in Asturias during the period of the Asturian-Cantabrian wars. Somenthing similar happens to the archaeological remains. Therefore we think the military actions could be developed in the Cantabrian mountain range (into the territory of the Asturian people) and in the littoral strip (the participation of the Roman fleet). The hinterland could have been controlled afterwards through communication routes. The design of these routes was done after the end of the wars and was consolidated in times of Augustus’ successors.

La anexión del territorio habitado por las poblaciones septentrionales hispanas durante las guerras astur-cántabras se halla en la base de su integración en los parámetros de vida romanos; este proceso de conquista, dirigido y encabezado por el propio Augusto, solo se comprende en el marco general de la política militar del Estado romano, cuyos objetivos se centraban en la implantación sobre la Península Ibérica (y el Occidente europeo en general) de una organización administrativa estable y uniforme. 1
