Extract

The excavations carried out between 1917 and 1921 at Baelo Claudia (Bolonia, Tarifa, province of Cádiz)1 were led by P. Paris and his team2 working with the Anglo-French archaeologist G. Bonsor3 and with A. Laumonier and R. Ricard, as well as with Cayetano de Mergelina4 in 1918-19. Work focused on the N part of the forum where three temples were exposed.5 A minor intervention was carried out in the theatre together with more extensive excavations in the area of the fish-salting factory that included two domus, and in the E necropolis. The outcome was two publications, one on the city,6 the other on the necropolis,7 that are outstanding for those days.
