Abstract
In recent times, archaeology has undergone a process of methodological renewal related to the incorporation of many digital tools and resources. The increasing use of Geographic Information Technologies (GIT), the open-access to geospatial datasets (aerial photography, satellite imagery, LiDAR), the popularisation of new technical equipment –such as UAVs–, or the remarkable progress experienced by the archaeological sciences –geophysics, palaeoenvironmental sampling, absolute dating methods, etc.– have forever changed the discipline. The Romanarmy.eu collective has experienced these changes firsthand, developing a modular methodology to understand better the impact of the extension of the Roman state on the diverse archaeological landscapes of north-western Iberia. The voluminous archaeological information gathered facilitates the overcoming of traditional historical readings of this process, while new approaches allow for new interpretative models that also value the role played by indigenous communities in this process of change.
