Abstract
This paper studies diachronically the evolution of the territory around the city· of Jaén from the end of the Roman age until the Christian conquest and repopulation. Thanks to this long-time approach and the use of archaeological data as the main source of information, the transformations that happened in the Jaen's district during that period could be analysed and connected with the changes in the social system. The implementation of the Christian network of settlements was the result of the creation of new conditions linked to the feudalization and it was shaped over the strata of previous patterns which were abandoned.
