We present in this paper a new reconstruction proposal for the attic of the portico that in the Flavian period surrounded the cult precinct dedicated to Divus Augustus, located on the acropolis at Tarragona. This hypothesis is based on two arguments: on the one hand, the evidence provided by the rear wall of the portico and the precise measuring of the architectural elements corresponding to the colonnade and the attic; and, on the other hand, the existence of parallels in some cities of the Galia, such as Arles, Nyon and Avenches. Although it has been traditionally proposed that the origin of the motifs decorating the attic was in the attic of the portico at the Forum of Augustus, divergences between one and the other suggest thinking about another prototype. In this sense, two options can be proposed: the first, that the model stands at Rome. In that case, by virtue of the Flavian dating of the architectural elements, the portico of the Templum Pacis also endowed with an attic could be considered, even if no similar architectural elements are known up to date that can be attributed to it; or, the second, that the portico at Tarragona was a prototype in itself, so that the Gallian precincts with similar iconography and dating would be directly derived from it
