SUMMARY:

Situated within studies dedicated to Roman religion in antiquity, more specifically to the religious practices devoted to the Isiac deities in the Iberian Peninsula, this dissertation aims to present the cult of Isis and her divine family in the cities of Augusta Emerita, Italica, and Baelo Claudia between the 1st and 3rd centuries CE. This analysis is based on practices associated with terracotta lamps, along with sculptures and epigraphic sources. To achieve this, we characterize the different uses of these sources by worshippers of Nilotic deities, delineating their conceptions and attributes through the analysis of material culture. We discuss the forms assumed by the cult of Isis, narrating transformations and continuities in worship practices within the same urban context and throughout the Roman Empire. Furthermore, we describe the lived space of the Isis cult in the analyzed cities. Methodologically, we have compiled a documentary corpus in which sources are categorized into typological tables, allowing for the comparison and systematization of data concerning attributes, uses, and recurrent practices across the three centuries under study. Theoretically, this research is grounded in Jörg Rüpke’s (2015, 2018) considerations on religion as communication; Richard Hingley’s (2005) work on the local identity of worshippers of Isis in southern Iberia; and the concept of "glocalization" applied to religious communication through material culture in the Roman Empire, as discussed by David C. D. Van Alten (2017). Lastly, to address the context of lived space, I draw upon Henri Lefebvre’s (2006) concept as interpreted by Jörg Rüpke in his work Urban Religion (2021).
