We briefly review the theory of general relativity in superspace and show how the theory may be interpreted from the view of a superfiber bundle. It is shown that this superfiber, however, does not possess, as its structural group, the fourteen-parameter group of global supersymmetry, the super Poincaré group. Starting from an ansatz which is suggested by superspace general relativity, a second superfiber bundle theory is constructed which does possess the super Poincaré group as its structural group.
