Abstract

The Archaeological works developed in the Roman villa of Puente de la Olmilla have revealed interesting characteristics of the architectural configuration of the aristocratic residence and its ornamental program. We have also recorded information related to the distribution of pottery products, the monetary circulation, and some other aspects related with the ideology of the owner. The last issue can be approached through the use of different kinds of material culture as mythological mosaic decorations, a little sculpture of Minerva, and a figured terracotta. Most of the archaeological materials in this site and its mural paintings and mosaics are from 4th century, but some ceramic shards and five coins confirm that there was a stage of previous occupation (1st and 2nd century A.D.).
