When did the Christians first enter Spain?

Christians probably began to enter Spain in small numbers from the first century CE. In the fifth century, Visigoths allied with Rome to keep other barbarians away from the Roman border, and received Roman Hispania (the Iberian Peninsula) and Southern Gaul as a payment for their loyalty. The Visigoths at this stage were Unitarian Christians (Arians), while the Roman Empire followed Trinitarian Catholicism.
