Popis: This paper deals with the diachronic evolution of the northern suburbium of Segobriga between the middle of the 1st century BC and the 8th century AD. This is possible today due to the results of a campaign of geophysical prospection in the year 2015, the data of recent archaeological works and the documentation coming from excavations in the 18th century. Therefore we can speak now of a transformation of the necropolis (that was linked to the via leading to Carthago Nova) from imperial times into a set of buildings of religious character as a consequence of the christianization of that suburbium from the first middle of the 5th century.
