Abstract

The Roman archaeologccal site of Sant Gregori is located 100 meters from the coast, in the town of Burriana (Castellón).The archaeological works have revealed a set of interesting architectural structures. Due to the ¡nterest of this site, it was chosen for archaeological excavation within the research programs at Universitat Jaume I, our main purpose was twofold: to deepen our understanding about Romanization in the area of Castellón de la Plana and to create a training site for undergraduate students at university. The villa has been dated between the change of era and the IV c. A.D., although some materials have been dated in the Roman Republíc and Iberic time. These recent findings have to be related with the Iberian sites and the beginning of the Roman occupation while the republican period.
