Se trata de una lápida funeraria cuyo texto fue elaborado a partir del epígrafe perdido CIL II 2 /7, 99 (Porcuna), transmitido por tradición manuscrita a partir de los manuscritos de Juan Fernández Franco. La similitud de fábrica con la de otro falso denunciado anteriormente por los autores (Carbonell y Gimeno 2011) sugiere la existencia de algún taller de reproducciones que podría haber estado en activo en algún lugar de la Andalucía Oriental en las primeras décadas del siglo XX. PALABRAS CLAVE: falsos epigráficos; Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum; Bética; tradición manuscrita; Juan Fernández Franco. CIL II 2 /7, 99 (PORCUNA) A MODEL FOR A FAKE OF PROVINCIA BAETICA SCULPTED IN MARBLE

ABSTRACT The article analyses a fake Roman stela auctioned in 2012. It is a funerary tombstone whose text was made from the lost epigraph CIL II 2 / 7, 99 (Porcuna) transmitted by handwritten tradition from the manuscripts of Juan Fernández Franco. The similarity between his making-of and that of another fake one previously denounced by the authors (Carbonell y Gimeno 2011) suggests the existence of a reproduction workshop that could have been active somewhere in Eastern Andalusia in the first decades of the 20th century.

The recent publication (2016) of

provides us a final argument to the question
of the eventual transfer of CIL II 963 from Aroche
to Moura.

We do it by means of a detailed study of its manuscript tradition from the late fifteenth century, and also of the historical context that concerned the Spanish-Portuguese border from Visigothic times until the sixteenth century. We conclude that the inscription was originally put in Moura, and not moved from Aroche. The study allows us to increase the Roman epigraphic material of Moura with two lost inscriptions, hitherto attributed to Santiago de Compostela (CIL II, 2548 & 2549).

From a graphite found in a funerary area in Olmedilla de Alarcón (Cuenca) we review again the texts engravings in three ceramic objects already known, also coming from a funerary context.

BnF LAT. 11919. They contain epigraphic texts of Rome, Italy and Spain, from the collectanea of Bernard de Montfaucon. The identification has been possible from the study of Antonio’s calligraphy and his travel and stay in Rome. Also has been traced the itinerary of sheets before reaching the hands of the French scholar.

Also a new parallel philological analysis helps us to interpret some abstruse aspects of the text it contains.

Coincidences of the text of these inscriptions and the loss of two of them have led researchers to consider different hypotheses about their relationship. This article integrates the study of the handwritten transmission of each one of them (as well as of the historiography referred to their finding) with a special epigraphical analysis of CIL II 5941 done in situ, with the aim of sheding more light on its origin and character.

The dissemination of epigraphic corpora manuscripts and printed books that included inscriptions played a fundamental role in this process, placing it on a fine line between truth and historical lies

Under the protection of the Crown, several projects began but could not be completed. The effort however was not in vain: without this work, neither the two volumes of the Corpus Inscriptionum Hispaniae Latinae published by the Prussian Academy (1869, 1890), nor the Inscriptiones Hispaniae Christianae (1871) and the Monumenta Linguae Ibericae (1893) would have had at their disposal the materials which the learned men and the Spanish institution’s generosity provided for.

the so called “epigraphic fakes” – either handwritten or material ones – as
documents with social, cultural and political values that go beyond the
information transmitted by the text. This article analyzes and comments
thoroughly on a set of five false inscriptions related to the war between the
Romans and Viriathus, which were circulated between 1513 and 1516 by
Agostino Nettucci (a poorly known humanist). This episode gives us an
insight into the modus operandi employed by sixteenth – and seventeenthcentury
forgers and the eventual motives for carrying out these forgeries.

about the Romanization and survival of the social organization of indigenous communities
of the areas around the Alto Tajo and Tajuña rivers. Another stele which has been hitherto
included in the Segobriga corpus also comes from Trillo, a place located on the Segontia-
Segobriga Roman road, on the border between the regions of the Alto Tajo and La Alcarria.
