Personal and family promotion through onomastics (II): the Quirina tribus in the Conventus Cluniensis

Abstract

This paper is a second part of another in which we studied the onomastics in inscriptions that mentioned the Galeria tribus from the Conventus Cluniensis of Hispania. In this present work we apply the same methodology with the Quirina tribus.  The objective of this analysis is to draw conclusions about the transformations and permanences in anthroponyms within family groups that had members who had obtained the Roman citizenship and mentioned their belonging to a tribus. Therefore, we are going to focus on those families that had access to the Roman citizenship as a consequence of the municipalization of the Flavian period.
