In this paper we talk about the honorific pedestals of the Provincial Priesthood from Segobriga. This is the second city of Hispania citerior with more testimonies, since only Tarraco has a greater number. We consider economic, social, political and cultural conditions of Segobriga, as well as his close relationship with Imperial power and his juridical promotion connected with emperor Augustus. Moreover, the analysis of the geographical and social origin of the set of flamines allow us to think of this priesthood as a way of social promotion and visibility in the province.
