Diego Romero Vera

I obtained a degree in History from the University of Sevilla in 2010 (average mark of 9’15 out of 10). Subsequently, I continued my training at the University of Cordoba, where I attended an official Master's Degree in Archaeology and Heritage. In 2012, I obtained a pre-doctoral scholarship granted by the Spanish Government (University Teacher Training Program). I got my PhD in 2016 with the thesis “La ciudad hispanorromana en el siglo II D.C. Consolidación y transformación de un modelo urbano” (summa cum laude). My main line of research is the analysis of the Hispano-Roman cities during the Antonine period based on the archeological and epigraphical records. Others of my lines of research are the unbuilt spaces or gaps in the Roman city and the patrimonium Caesaris in Hispania. I have tried whenever possible to participate in scientific congresses, meetings and conferences. Up until now, I have participated in 26 congresses, most of them of an international character. Also, I have conducted research stays in Italy (University of Firenze, German Archaeological Institute of Rome), Portugal (Institute of Archaeology at the University of Coimbra) and United Kingdom (University of Oxford). In 2017, I got a contract for young Ph.D. post-graduates at the University of Córdoba. In September of the same year, I joined as a postdoctoral researcher at the project PATRIMONIVM funded by the European Research Council and hosted by the Ausonius Institute at the Bordeaux Montaigne University. In September 2018, and thanks to a Juan de la Cierva contract, I entered the Department of Prehistory and Archeology at University of Sevilla. Currently, I take part in three research projects. Specifically, one national project: Colonia Aelia Augusta Italica. Arqueología del Sector NE de la Vetus Urbs de Italica. (Univ. Sevilla). And also two European-International projects: ADOPIA, Atlas Digital Onomastique de la Péninsule Ibérique Antique (Univ. York, Canada) y PATRIMONIVM (ERC-StG 716375), Geography and Economy of the Imperial Properties in the Roman World (Univ. Bordeaux-Montaigne), in which I am project responsible for the Iberian Peninsula. With regard to teaching, I was in charge of several subjects at the History Degree and the Master's Degree in Archaeology at the University of Sevilla. In this respect, I have participated in diferents courses and congresses about university teaching. Furthermore, I have published nine academic works related to teaching innovation. Finally, I am certified as Associate Professor by ANECA and I hold the position of secretary of Spal. According to Scopus, recently this scientific journal has been declared the journal of History with the highest impact factor at national level.
