La guerra de Tacfarinas (17-24 d. C.): Balance historiográfico y nuevas perspectivas sobre las causas de su estallido

Abstract

This paper reviews the war of Tacfarinas in the North of Africa during the government of the emperor Tiberius (17-24 AC), in order to understand his causes and consequences for Roman policy. Although a lot of papers have been done about the testimony of Tacitus in Annales, new theories and methods can allow us to argue about new ideas. In addition, we consider the fact that Tacitus is the only author that pays attention to the conflict between Rome and Tacfarinas.
