“…However, along with these Hispanic marbles a large variety of stones from other quarries located in the Empire can be found in southern Hispania (Beltrán, 2012b), although they are mainly elements easy to transport, as opus sectile veneers and revetments (Becerra, 2016; Becerra & Vargas, 2018; Gutiérrez‐Deza, 2007; Pérez Olmedo, 1996). Luni ‐Carrara marble was notably used in western areas of the Roman Empire for imperial building projects (Antonelli & Lazzarini, 2015; Attanasio, 2003; Blanc et al, 2020; Cramer et al, 2010; Gutiérrez García‐Moreno & Rodà, 2012; Lapuente & Royo, 2016; Pensabene, 2012a, 2012b), as seen in various Baetican towns, for example, in Astigi (Ordóñez Agulla et al, 2018), Hispalis (Taylor et al, 2018), and Italica (Becerra, 2017; Rodà, 1997; Rodríguez Gutiérrez, 2004, 2008); its use even extending to North Africa (Antonelli et al, 2009b, 2014). The use of ornamental rocks from southern Hispania combined with other stones from distant places of the Empire stand out in urban contexts, above all, in public buildings (Becerra, 2019; Mayer & Rodà, 1998; Rodríguez Gutiérrez, 2004, 2008), as the Traianeum of Italica .…”
