Etruscan, Greek, Latin, and Celtiberian tesserae hospitales 2020 Hospitality can be considered a key institution in the social relationships in the ancient Mediterranean. To identify the people involved in a hospitality agreement, in certain contexts small objects were used in a similar way to a password, which the Greeks called symbolon and the Romans tessera hospitalis. We know how the latter were used thanks to Plautus'' Poenulus. At least 64 pieces are currently known which may be identified as tesserae hospitales. All come from the Western Mediterranean. The majority contain brief inscriptions, written in Etruscan, Latin, Greek, or Celtiberian. They share a series of common features, which impart a clear family resemblance beyond geographic, cultural, or linguistic borders Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 0.152 2020 History 2020 Q1 Classics 2020 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Diaz Ariño, Borja Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-9099-5811 Jordan Colera, Carlos Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-2986-1344 Simon Cornago, Ignacio 3000 445 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
