Abstract
Archaeological excavations carried out in urban burial areas from Early Imperial age show that practically the only funeral rite was incineration. The cremated bone remains were deposited inside an urn buried in a small pit or resting directly on the ground. Domestic ceramic pots were commonly used and, less frequently, glass vessels, due to its higher cost. This paper analyses the typology of the sixty-five cinerary containers found in Segobriga in order to establish their evolution and chronological assignment.
