The frontier landscape between al-Andalus and the military order of Santiago
A study of the archaeological structures preserved in this conflict borderland
This text covers the study of a set of military structures preserved in what was a unique border area between Christians and Muslims in south-west Europe during the XIIth and XIIIth centuries. They are situated in a wide mountainous and wooded territory located in Segura de la Sierra valley, in the south-east of the Iberian peninsula, in Andalusia. This area formed the frontier for 280 years between the Christian kingdom of Castile, and the last territories of al-Andalus after the collapse of the Almohad military power, due to their defeat in 1212 in the Navas de Tolosa battle.
