La ocupación del entorno de las ciudades en época omeya. Marroquíes Bajos. Jaén

Abstract

The basic objective of this study was to combine the abundant archeological documentation that existed on the Archaeological Zone of Marroquíes Bajos, Jaén, in order to clarify some of the many gaps that exist about its organization and its evolution during the Umayyad period. The work has been based mainly on archaeological methodology, although other disciplines have also been used, such as documentary sources and toponymy, which have been applied to the study of roads, territory, dwellings and industrial and commercial establishments, as well as to the area of religious buildings and necropolis. The research on these aspects allows presenting an overall picture of the area between the 8th and 11th centuries as well as its evolutionary process.
