Funde, die seit 2006 an verschiedenen archäologischen Fundstätten geborgen wurden, erlauben es, unsere Kenntnisse zu Römern und Karthagern im Nordosten der Iberischen Halbinsel zu erweitern. Chronologisch sind die Funde drei Zeitabschnitten zuzuweisen: dem Zweiten Punischen Krieg, dem Sertoriusaufstand und dem Bürgerkrieg zwischen Caesar und Pompeius. Das Fundmaterial setzt sich aus clavii caligae, glandae, Amphoren und Münzen zusammen.

The following paper is an overview of the results of the research projects conducted in the north-eastern Iberian Peninsula1. At the beginning, the project focused on the Roman camps on the lower reaches of the River Ebro dated to the Second Punic War. The results obtained showed up the necessity to broaden both our chronological and geographical frame. For this reason, during recent years we have extended the analysis to any evidence for conflict and war in all north-eastern Spain from the end of the 3rd to mid-1st century BC. The projects, from a methodological point, should be framed within the theoretical movement known as Conflict Archaeology2. This approach to military archaeology was put into practise for the first time during work conducted around the site of the Battle of the Little Big Horn3. One of the most relevant traits of this discipline is the extensive use of metal detectors, a tool commonly criticized by most researchers, but recently defended by several archaeologists4. The methodological issues faced during our research have already been addressed in a previous paper5, so here we will focus on the results.
