Öz

Corpus of the Roman Mosaics of the Conuentus Bracaraugustanus (Coordinated by Fátima Abraços), 276 pages, 143 colour and black and white figures, with illustrative descriptions, a synoptic chart, 4 maps, bibliography, Lisbon: Centre for Historical Studies - Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, 2019, ISBN 978-989-5430413. The text published here largely follows the presentation that I did when the book was launched on 26th June 2019, in the Auditorium of the National Library of Portugal. It was with great honour and pleasure that I accepted the task of presenting the book Corpus of the Roman Mosaics of the Conuentus Bracaraugustanus, with the coordination and authorship of Fátima Abraços. The preparation of the book also had the helpful collaboration of António Manuel de Carvalho Lima, Cátia Mourão, Filomena Limão, Licínia Wrench, Marcelo Mendes Pinto, Paulo Dórdio Gomes and Rui Lopes. I began by reading the Preface written by Professor Manuel Justino Maciel, pages 9 and 10 of this Corpus: “Whether or not mosaics are very significant in the lands of north-western Atlantic Hispania, whether or not there are more mosaics in the cities or in the uillae, the book, now published, will mark a step forward in addressing this interesting question.
