This work puts forward the idea of the arrival to Hispania of precedents of the so-called ‘Syrian pediment’ –at least in iconography– during the Antonine period from the analysis of two gravestones from Clunia Sulpicia that represent the deceased into a distyle aedicula and a tetrastyle frontispiece, both topped by arched pediment. As a result, these reliefs demonstrate the arrival of the arched pediment long before the ‘Missorium’ of Theodosius I and could be taken as an important datum in the Hispanic architectural iconosphere.
