Abstract
Entre los espacios públicos con los que contó Segobriga se encuentra una plaza de exclusivo carácter religioso, edificada al noreste del forum en época de Tiberio. En la ladera norte del cerro sobre la que se construyó la ciudad existía inicialmente un lugar de culto indígena con un templo de triple cella, que fue transformado en un santuario a Minerva en aquella fecha. Una porticus triplex, elevada sobre criptopórticos, creó una plaza en torno al nuevo altar consagrado a esta divinidad. La monumentalización de esta area sacra siguió un modelo que se repitió por Italia y las provincias occidentales a partir de las últimas décadas del siglo I a. C. para delimitar el recinto sacro de un santuario o de un forum.
Abstract Among the public spaces that Segobriga enjoyed was a square of an entirely religious nature, built to the northeast of the forum in the time of Tiberius. On the northern slope of the hill on which the city was built, there was initially a place of indigenous worship with a triple-cella temple, which at that time was transformed into a shrine to Minerva. A porticus triplex, raised on cryptoporticos, created a square around the new altar consecrated to this divinity. The monumentalisation of this sacred area followed a model, spread throughout Italy and the western provinces from the last decades of the 1st century BC, designed to delimit the sacred enclosure of a sanctuary or a forum.
