The paper explores the migration patterns of Hispanic individuals within the Roman Empire, particularly focusing on their presence in Italy, Gaul, and Britannia. The study is based on epigraphic evidence, primarily funerary inscriptions, which provide insights into the origins, destinations, and social statuses of these immigrants. The study analyzes 204 inscriptions of potential Hispanic immigrants, categorizing them based on references to their origins, names, and professions. The primary focus is on individuals with clear indications of their Hispanic origins, excluding those with ambiguous references. The research raises questions about the motivations behind immigrants' identification with their origins and the role of host communities in this process.
