Abstract
En esta comunicación tratamos el caso de una falsificación epigráfica, realizada en torno
al siglo XVI, en la localidad desaparecida de Talavera la Vieja
(Cáceres), la antigua Augustobriga
romano-vetona. La supuesta identifi
cación de este lugar con la Elbora de la Passio de los Santos
Mártires Vicente, Sabina y Cristeta, su ciudad natal, llevó a a
lgún erudito o eclesiástico a crear
una falsa reliquia que hiciera irrebatible dicha hipótesis; tod
o ello en medio de una polémica
que duró varios siglos entre los
partidarios de asignar a esta
Talavera dicho privilegio, y los que
preferían identifi
carla con la Évora de Portugal
y los que opinaban
que se trata
ba de Talavera de
la Reina (Toledo). Para ello se utilizó un ara de época romana
en la que se grabó una inscripción
relativa a los santos. La falsa autenticidad de la pieza ya fue
puesta de manifi
esto por estudiosos
como Ponz y Hübner
In this paper we present the case of an epigraphic fake, from a round the 16th century, in the today disappeared town of Talavera la Vieja (Cáceres), t he ancient Roman-Vetton Augustobriga. The identifi cation of this place with the Elbora, hometown of the Holy Mar tyrs Vicente, Sabina and Cristeta Passio, led to some scholar or cle ric to create a false relic that would make irrefutable that hypothesis, all this in the midst of a co ntroversy that lasted several centuries between the supporters of assigning this privilege to this Tala vera and those who preferred to identify it with the Evora in Portugal and those who thought th ey were dealing with Talavera de la Reina (Toledo). For this, they used a Roman altar in which a n inscription of the Saints above mentioned was engraved. The false authenticity of the piece has already been highlighted by scholars as Ponz and Hübner.
