In the sequence of TabMir I (2016-2021), this project aims to take a stratigraphic approach to a type of urban sector that is frankly poorly known in our country and particularly in Roman Lusitania. In this sense, it is not intended to be just a study per se of urban commercial architectural realities (and their evolution), with one city, Mirobriga, as a case study, but rather a holistic integrated study, with particular emphasis on the material culture embedded in this type of space and studying it in a comparative methodology with the site's private and public spaces. It is thus a project that, like the project that preceded it (TabMir I: 2016-2021), aims to obtain a monographic analysis of the city, promoting ceramological, stratigraphic, architectural or urbanistic studies that explain the evolution of Mirobriga over the course of around six centuries in synchronic and diachronic terms.
