Materials and technological choices in ceramic production of Medieval Almería (al-Andalus)
This article presents the archaeometric characterisation of a collection of medieval pottery (11th–12th centuries) from two documented pottery workshops in the city of Almería. The study focuses on common pottery used for cooking, tableware, water storage, as well as pottery associated with production processes. This type of material is widely represented in the archaeological record, but is rarely characterised from a technological and compositi…
Alhamat
The Nasrid emirate of southern Iberia emanated power through architecture; this project aims to better understand how this was made possible, via an interdisciplinary exploration of the Alhambra monument and other Al-Andalus constructions. Initial results of archaeological campaigns, structure chronologies and communication plans undertaken in 2021 and 2022 are presented
Comparative analysis of responses to Covid-19 in Unesco Landscapes and World Heritage sites from Southern Europe and America
Purpose Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, UNESCO Landscapes and World Heritage sites have faced unstable situations. Both at the sites themselves and in the research centres, universities and even the homes of the people involved, they have acted and responded to the best of their ability. In this context, the aim of the comparative analysis of different cases carried out here is to understand the main effects of the pandemic in the short term…
Ceramic Production and Social Change in the South east of the Iberian Peninsula between the Islamic and Christian Periods
The major social and political shifts undergone by the south eastern Iberian Peninsula, and specifically Granada, Spain, between the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries brought about clear changes in the ceramic repertoire. This work analyzes these changes through the comparative analysis of three archaeological sites: the Castle of Moclín, the Palace of the Abencerrajes, and the Fortress of Lanjarón. These sites present a clear transitional seq…

Mercado, Redes Comerciales, Poder Y Producción Cerámica en El Sureste De La Península Ibérica Durante La Edad Media. Una Visión Panorámica
En el presente trabajo trazaremos una visión panorámica de la evolución de la producción cerámica medieval en el sureste de la Península Ibérica prestando atención a los hitos evolutivos identificados que conllevaron la introducción de nuevas tecnologías así como los factores que podrían explicarlos

Genoese trade networks in the southern Iberian peninsula
lt;p>This paper presents the results of a research project undertaken at the University of Granada, and in collaboration with several European research groups. We aim to investigate the process of interaction and integration between different economic areas in the western Mediterranean during the late Middle Ages. The southeast of the Iberian Peninsula has been analysed as a case study. Genoese merchants were particularly active within this area;…
A propósito de “Una necesaria revisión de las cerámicas andalusíes halladas en Italia”
El presente trabajo surge como respuesta a algunos estudios previos de Rafael Azuar que ponían en tela de juicio las dataciones aportadas por los denominados bacini, piezas cerámicas utilizadas en la decoración de algunos edificios, generalmente religiosos, en Italia, y en concreto las referidas a materiales procedentes de al-Andalus. Los autores comienzan explicando los argumentos que permiten sostener la veracidad de estas cronologías, ypasan r…
Un aspecto de la producción azucarera marroquí
La presentación y estudio del conjunto cerámico exhumado durante las antiguas excavaciones realizadas en Chichaoua (Marruecos) por Paul Berthier, brinda laoportunidad de facilitar nuevos datos acerca de los procesos tecnológicos ligados a la producción de azúcar en época medieval e inicios de la moderna. Es, además, una nueva aportación al conocimiento de un grupo cerámico, el de la cerámica del azúcar, poco difundido y muy necesitado de informac…
Cerámica nazarí tardía y cristiana de "El Castillejo" (Los Guájares, Granada)
El presente artículo tiene como objeto el estudio de un lote cerámico procedente del yacimiento medieval de El Castillejo, término municipal de Los Guájares, Granada. El citado yacimiento se encuentra sobre una escarpadaroca caliza en la margen derecha del río de la Toba. A lo largo de cuatro campañas (1985, 1986, 1987 y 1989) se exhumó la mayor parte de las estructuras que lo componen y se extrajo una importante cantidad de material cerámico que…
