Abstract
En las excavaciones realizadas en el foro de Los Bañales de Uncastillo fue localizado un importante programa escultórico localizado en la zona sur del conjunto en una unidad de amortización. El presente trabajo estudia unos fragmentos escultóricos pertenecientes a una representación de tamaño colosal que se ubicó en el forum de la ciudad. El tamaño de la escultura contrasta con el exiguo tamaño del foro de Los Bañales, lo que no im-pidió exhibir una estatua de estas dimensiones. Este nuevo ejemplo de escultura colosal en comunidades de tamaño medio y pequeño nos muestra que estas representaciones no fueron exclusivas de las grandes ciudades hispanas.
During the excavations at the forum of Los Bañales de Uncastillo, an important sculptural program was discovered in the southern area of the complex. This paper studies some sculptural fragments belonging to a colossal representation that was located in the city’s forum. The size of the sculpture contrasts with the small size of the forum at Los Bañales, which did not prevent the display of a statue of these dimensions. This new example of colossal sculpture in medium and small-sized communities shows us that these representations were not exclusive to the large cities in Hispania.
