Abstract
In this article we study the first Roman Age open air shepherd evidences in Sierra of Aralar: two huts. We additionally compare them with other contemporary and similar evidences of the surrounding areas of the Basque Country, often considered as margin settlements in caves during conflict times. We think that, even if these exceptional situations can occur, most of them are short seasonal shepherd settlements, like the ones happened in Bronze Age, Medieval Ages and also in more modern times.
