Abstract
We present a small group of 10 tombs located in the vicinity of Almenara de Adaja-Puras villa. This cemetery area corresponds to a human group related to the last phase of the activity in this Roman villa, when around the urban pars was arranged a series of constructions of rustic type that were in use until advanced the second half of the 5th century ad. Several aspects of this necropolis are analyzed, among them the buried population and the characterization of the funerary deposit and/or the ritual. The internal organization and its despoilment are also emphasized, which has made it possible to recognize different moments of use in the Late Antiquity. The most outstanding features of these burials in graves are the lack of trousseaux and containers for the funeral feast, the use of coffins and the presence of ritual footwear deposited on one side of the feet.
