Abstract

This paper is part of the studies of the Research Project “Riparia. Conceptualization, management, exploitation and function of Wetlands and the lacustrine spaces in the Roman Baetica”. Through analysis of the diverse documentary sources, particularly from the epigraphic and legal ones, it tries the conceptual definition of lacustrine and wetland spaces and its reflection in those who integrate the riverside areas of the Roman Baetica. This Roman region was a space that counted on diversity of wetlands and lacustrine areas, as much in the coast as in the interior, and had to be organized, to be regularized and to be used by the Roman power from its inception in the territory after the creation in 197 BC of the Ulterior Baetica province, to the object of its correct exploitation and economic advantage taking into account the resources that it provided.
