| Sumario: | The recent edition of an early medieval manuscript, the Ars Gromatica Gisemundi (Ripoll, 106), has offered new information about the literature of the Roman land surveyors. In this manuscript are preserved some unpublished texts on provincial land surveying, most of them connected with a discriptio of the Hispaniae provinciae, focused specially in the Cartaginensis region. The study of this document has allowed us to identify the use of the ager per extremitatem mensura comprehensus system to delimitate the provincial boundaries until the Late Antique period in Roman Spain. We have also pointed out the existence of a provincial agrimensorial documentation, collected by provincial agrimensores, who preserved the information of the main territorial transformations, as the construction of a network of roman roads during Constantinean times, or the modifcation of the provincial boundaries. This new information could be also related with some epigraphical documents preserved in the North West of the Iberian Peninsula, showing the effective Roman practice of boundary delimitation and landmark. |
