Abstract

In this paper we study iconographically, functionally and chronologically a terracotta made in Hispanic Terra Sigillata. It was found in a funerary context in Augusta Emerita. This is a figure in round that appears mutilated and which has the peculiarity of being painted, something uncommon in the ceramic repertoire at that time in the Iberian Peninsula. Also we took the opportunity to raise a new interpretative hypothesis on this finding as an oriental deity and to analyze similar examples produced in the other figlinae in the Iberian Peninsula.
