Summary/Abstract: This article presents the historiographic evolution of the "dioceses" of Hispania citerior in the High Roman Empire. From their creation by Mommsen to their total disappearance in the 1980s, they are mentioned very often in the bibliography of the Roman administration of that province. This is the first time that the development of this historiographic construction is presented.
