Hispania Tarraconensis

Roman province on the Iberian Peninsula (27 BC-460 AD)

Caesaraugusta or Caesar Augusta was the name of the Roman city of Zaragoza, founded as a Colonia Inmune from Rome in 14 BC, possibly on December 23, on the intensely Romanized Iberian city of Salduie. Its foundation occurred in the context of the reorganization of the provinces of Hispania by Caesar Augustus after his victory in the Astur-Cantabrian wars. thumb|Caesaraugusta on modern plan of the city 1.- Decumano (present-day Calle Mayor, Calle Espoz y Mina and Calle Manifestación). 2.- Cardo (present-day Calle Don Jaime I) 3.- Forum of Caesaraugusta 4.- Fluvial port 5.- Public baths 6.- The
