Sumario:The Episcopal Sees of Arcavica, Segobriga and Valeria are documented in the councils of Toledo from the end of the 6th century and throughout the 7th one. However, the archaeological record of this period is uneven: in Segobriga, the excavations have recognised the spaces of reference for the organisation of the diocese, such as a funeral basilica in the suburbium and a plausible episcopium in the city, while in Arcavica and Valeria the data are still weak. Nevertheless, evidence of minor churches, baptisteries in private settings, rocky hermitages and rural necropolises reveal the intense Christianisation of the southern territory of ancient Celtiberia.
