Abstract

Twenty-six persons show the family name Sertorius in the epigraphical sources of roman Spain. They constitute a residual gens coming from the clientelae of the proconsul Quintus Sertorius and his actions in the civil wars of the Late Roman Republic. Some of his followers, due to individual circumstances difficult to precise, managed to keep the roman citizenship and expressed this one by the defeated proconsul’s family name. This work studies the geographical and chronological distribution of the Sertorii and their contribution to the socioeconomic and administrative structures of Roman Spain.
