Popis: This paper is focused on the characterization on roman mural paintings from the archaeological site of Cercadilla (Córdoba, Spain). The mural paintings were located in a thermal complex that belonged to a Roman palace complex from tetrarchy era. White mural paintings with red vertical and horizontal edges decorations were studied. Several tecniques were used to study the mural paintings: such as colorimetry, macrophotography, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, micro X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence. The results allowed us to determine the composition of materials. In addition, the conservation condition of the mural paintings and the weathering forms were studied.
