Way and beyond ideological mandates that have at any moment in time distinguished legal differences between the area falling within or without the city walls, history shows that ever since it was founded, Cordoba has surpassed the strict limits imposed by its walls to make up a functional unit in which it is impossible to understand the city sensu stricto without its extra moenia area, its suburbia: an ever changing reality whose first sign of transition centers on the network of roads. This in turn becomes a guarantee for access to a second outlying strip (lacking in urban functions but easily accessible and the area favoured by its inhabitants for their daily activities), and finally to the land on which the city’s economy, political power and prestige depended. The suburbs served as a mirror for the city.Key words: Corduba, Baetica, Hispania, Roman Archaeology, Urbanism, Architecture, Suburbs. Más allá de los imperativos ideológicos que en cada momento han definido las diferencias jurídicas entre el espacio intramuros y el extramuros, la historia evidencia que Córdoba ha trascendido desde su fundación los límites estrictos impuestos por sus murallas para configurar una unidad funcional en la que no es posible entender a la ciudad sensu stricto sin su espacio extra moenia, sus suburbia: realidad cambiante que establece un primer ámbito de transición vertebrado por la red viaria. Ésta se erige a su vez en garantía de acceso a una segunda franja de carácter periurbano (carente de funciones urbanas, pero fácilmente accesible y marco preferente para la actividad cotidiana de sus habitantes), y, por fin, al territorio dependiente, en el que se cimentaba la base económica, el poder político y el prestigio de la urbe. Los suburbios funcionaron así, para bien y para mal, como espejos de la misma.Palabras clave: Corduba, Baetica, Hispania, Arqueología romana, Urbanismo, Arquitectura, Suburbios Universidad de Cuenca 2016-11-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://publicaciones.ucuenca.edu.ec/ojs/index.php/estoa/article/view/1021 10.18537/est.v005.n009.04 Estoa.
