    Resumen:
    This work focuses on the characterization of geological materials from the city of Toledo and its territorium as well as the possible location of quarries that supplied materials to Toledo in Roman and Late Antiquity. Emphasises this study its multidisciplinary nature, relying heavily on geological, historical, and archaeological. It has made an inventory of attested uses (epigraphy, sculpture and architectural decoration) of each of treated materials and properly characterized by petrological analysis. These tests were carried out to both quarry and archaeological samples, highlighting the study made in the circus and aqueduct of Toledo. The comparative analysis of all samples has meant, among other results, confirmation of: Roman and Visigoth quarries, the presence of quarries in the same city, and new approaches to the topography of the city.
