Se han aislado las diversas fluctuaciones econ¨®micas registradas en los ajuares de las tumbas, desde la ¨¦poca de Augusto hasta la primera mitad del siglo II de nuestra era, confirmando lo que ya apuntaban las fuentes literarias y arrojando m¨¢s luz sobre la naturaleza de tales cambios. Tambi¨¦n se han detectado crisis tan relevantes como la de tiempos de Tiberio y oscilaciones monetarias. Todo ello viene a probar la extraordinaria importancia de esta metodolog¨ªa para ampliar nuestro conocimiento objetivo de la sociedad romana y de muchas otras civilizaciones y pueblos de la antig¨¹edad. ENGLISH: The application of a contextual appraisal method to the analysis of funerary expense in early imperial Roman Ampurias, has shown the enormous utility of this tool for the economic and social reconstruction of the history of this city. Various economic fluctuations have been documented in the record of grave goods, from the time of Augustus to the first half of the second century AD, confirming information already indicated by literary sources and shedding more light on the nature of these changes. Economic crises were identified, including some as significant as those experienced during the Tiberius period, as well as currency fluctuations. This serves to demonstrate the extraordinary importance of the contextual approach to expand not only our knowledge of Roman society, but also of many other civilizations and peoples of antiquity. %K arqueologia funeraria | gasto funerario | fluctuaciones economicas | ampurias romana | roma alto-imperial | antiguedad clasica | funerary expense | archaeology of death | economic fluctuations | roman ampurias | early imperial rome | classical antiquity %U http://www.laiesken.net/arqueologia/archivo/2010/07/1.html
