“…60). Archaeological evidence supports this view (Quesada 1997c;1997d), recently reinforced with minor nuances by García Jiménez (2012, and agreed with by most Spanish-, French-and Englishspeaking scholars (Quesada 1997c; 1997d followed by e.g. Connolly 1997, 56;Stiebel 2004, 230;Cadiou 2008, 244;Poux 2008, 316;Pernet 2010, 54-62;Canestrelli 2021, 61).…”

“…This sword derives from the Gallic model of La Tène I and lasted much longer in Iberia than in Gaul, where the blades evolved into longer and blunter forms. Its sheath, in contrast, is typically Iberian and Mediterranean in character (Quesada 1997c;García Jiménez 2012, 134-46), with the completely metal Celtic scabbard and suspension loop being replaced in most of Iberia, except the north-east (Rapin 1987). This type of sword, originating in the 4th century, now became widespread and starts appearing in iconography and burials in the Iberian interior, Lusitania and along the Mediterranean.…”

Integration and connectivity c. 150-70 BC", published by Oxbow Books, with ISBN number 9781789257175. Military Connectivity between Romans and Non-Romans in the WestFernando Quesada Sanz were rare and mainly a status symbol. Defensive armament was based on a 50-70 cm diameter circular shield, caetra, with only an occasional, but effective, disc-cuirass and helmet (Quesada 1997a; Lorrio 2016). Such combinations were typical for 'line infantry' (often misnamed 'heavy infantry ', see Quesada 2006a, 246). A few tombs have examples of a lighter panoply (javelins, shield and perhaps some form of short sword), which the literary evidence associates with light infantry (Quesada 1998, 192-3 and fig. 6). Projectile weapons (slings and bows) hardly ever appear in the many tombs containing weapons or in iconography. ShieldsSignificant changes in warriors' panoply occurred around the turn of the 3rd and 2nd centuries. These were first seen just before and in the early period of Roman presence in the main Iberian regions where there was significant Carthaginian influence preceding the Roman (Quesada 2002-3;2011b). The main innovations comprised strengthening defensive armament (Quesada 2002-3;2011b). The oval shield (thureos/scutum) was the first example of change. Since the work by Cabré (1939-40) and Stary (1982), the previous emphasis on a Celtic-based origin for this type of shield being in the Iberian peninsula has moved to acknowledging that an oval form and variants spread throughout the Mediterranean, continental Europe and North Africa from the 3rd century. A north Italian origin for the basic form is now generally accepted. From there, it extended into Europe north of the Alps at the beginning of the 4th century (Eichberg 1987, 183-4, 217-8) or even earlier (Stary 1981, 294), eventually reaching Latium and Rome. During the Iron Age, a flat form of the oval shield definitely became the most characteristic type amongst people generally regarded as 'Celtic'. A flat type was also common among many Italian peoples, such as the flat ver-sion from Etruria (Eichberg type C; 1987, Beilage 1). There was also a later curved, tile-shaped form, which protected the combatant more efficiently, according to Livy (38.21.4). This type seems to have been introduced in Rome during the Second Punic War (Eichberg 1987, 190-1). Thus, the oval shield was not just Celtic, but also Etruscan, Italian and even, in a new form, also Roman. Additionally, other forms of the oval shield were also in widespread use from at least the beginning of the 3rd century among the Greeks, who perhaps adopted them from the Galatians when these had been invaded, or from long before, as such shields could have been used by the Achaeans in the Peloponnese quite independently (Anderson 1970, 14; Paus. 8.50.1; Plut. Vit. Phil. 9).Al...

“…7 Torremorana destaca por su situación al oeste de la línea imaginaria que traza F. Quesada en la dispersión del armamento ibérico, (QUESADA, 2001) muy cercana a la zona fronteriza de los dos ámbitos culturales en que suele dividirse la cuenca del Guadalquivir (F. PEREIRA, 1988 y 1989) y por sus materiales, que avanzamos, netamente ibéricos (QUESADA, 1999). 8 Destacan en este sentido los análisis de los materiales procedentes de las excavaciones de la necrópolis de La Serreta ( MIRO, REIG, 1997) (PRATS, ROVIRA, MIRO, 1996) y de la necrópolis de la Hoya (ALONSO, CERDAN, FILLOY, 1999).Esclarecedora es la recensión de F. Quesada a esta última obra (QUESADA, 2000) que recoge ésta y otra bibliografía puntera en este tipo de análisis.…”

“…Pese a que el material que estudiamos tiene un carácter de hallazgo fortuito 15 , por tanto descontextualizado arqueológicamente, entendemos que supone una interesante aportación al registro de armas de la II Edad de Hierro, halladas al oeste de la línea Andújar-Almedinilla ya señalada por F. Quesada (QUESADA 2001: 101 y QUESADA, 1992.Este mismo autor publicó recientemente un ajuar procedente igualmente del yacimiento de Torremorana que siguiendo la línea interpretativa que él plantea, consideramos hay que valorar los materiales que aquí presentamos en un ambiente funerario, es decir que formarían parte de ajuares de tumbas, y aparecerían asociados a una serie de restos cerámicos-cerámica ibérica pintada-también documentados en el yacimiento 16 .…”

This paper presents a group of Iberian Iron Age weapons from a cemetery at Torremorana (Baena, Córdoba). These were donated to the local Archaeological Museums at Baena and Almedinilla, where they are kept. The series consists of a falcate sword, a frontón sword, soliferrea, spearheads and a shield handgrip. All these objects are consistent with a date of circa 420-350 BC. Este artículo da a conocer una serie de armas de época ibérica procedentes de una necrópolis en Torremorana (Baena, Córdoba).

Este trabajo presenta las espadas de hierro procedentes de la necrópolis de Son Pellisser (Calviá–Mallorca). Aunque el número de materiales recuperados es elevado y continúan en fase de estudio ofrecemos un avance preliminar sobre tres espadas de importación, localizadas entre los ajuares, así como su posible origen y vía de introducción en la isla. Estas armas constituirían la primera evidencia arqueológica de la participación de mercenarios baleáricos en las Guerras de Sicilia, entre cartagineses y griegos, desde el siglo V a. n. e.
