Aims: <\/strong>Building on the studies previously carried out by Jes\u00fas Garc\u00eda S\u00e1nchez in the area (leading to his doctoral thesis) as well as the contributions of other researchers, we have been developing a series of archaeological interventions sin 2017 with the aim of deepening our knowledge of the archaeological landscapes of the Sasam\u00f3n region in the transition between the end of the Iron Age and the Roman period. In addition to other interesting sites, the Turmogian oppidum<\/em> at Cerro de Castarre\u00f1o, the Roman city of Segisamo<\/em> and a series of structures identified as Roman camps have been detected in the area. The work carried out to date includes 1) archaeological, metal-detection, aerial and magnetometric surveys of the camps (2017 and 2019); 2) geo-radar and magnetometric surveys, as well as the excavation of the ditch that delimits the northern spur of Cerro de Castarre\u00f1o (2017-19); 3) aerial and geophysical surveying of the urban fabric of Segisamo<\/em>; 4) cataloguing and study of the archaeological materials deposited in the church of Santa Mar\u00eda de Sasam\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

Results:\u00a0 <\/strong>The archaeological interventions have made it possible to characterise the Carrecastro site as a Roman camp, as well as the collection of material that could be ascribed to the Roman army. Something similar seems to happen with the enclosures of La Veguilla and Santa Eulalia. The excavations in the oppidum<\/em> of Cerro de Castarre\u00f1o have allowed us to document a defensive system that dates from the transition from Early to Late Iron Age until the 1st c. BC. From this moment on, the site was abandoned and, according to some material evidences that are still being studied, the Roman military presence would have caused this. Progress has also been made in understanding the urban layout of the Roman city, as well as the suburban network (roads, production centres, infrastructure, etc.).<\/p>\n
