- Abstract
This paper presents a new altar dedicated to Ataecina. The object, located actually in Oña (Burgos), it was probably moved from the West part of Lusitania where most of the dedications to this deity have been found. The name of the goddess, in this case, is followed by the epithets Turebriga Proserpina as well as the name of the devotee and possibly the votive formula. According to the material used as support and the typology of the altar its origin seems could have been manufactured in the area of Mérida, but circumstances and chronology of the displacement are unknown. We think that due to small size and reduced weight of the altar, it could have arrived during the Roman period as part of the luggage of an immigrant; but it could also have been moved in modern times by an antiques dealer or a particular.
