    Abstract:
    The object of this thesis is to present a study of the port of Tarraco during Late Republican and Early Roman Empire times from a diachronic and interdisciplinary perspective that enables the evolution of the Roman port to be observed and its use, physiognomy and activities to be understood. Our research into this enclave has been limited by several factors. On the one hand, studies of the Roman port are fragmentary and have been carried out from different perspectives, without taking into account other disciplines that allow data to be combined. On the other hand, no remains of the main structures of the Roman port, such as its harbour wall, have been preserved. For this reason, our monographic approach will enable us to focus the study on the specific area of the port in order to analyse it in detail. In spite of the fact that many works have already delved into this subject from different fields of study, what still remains outstanding is an overall updating of all of this information. Because of this, we have focused on the study of classical sources, historiography and archaeology.
