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.
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 desde un principio prometía aportar importantes novedades que contribuirían a completar las informaciones que sobre la cerámica nazarí se tenía hasta el momento.Los resultados de los primeros análisis de este conjunto cerámico aportaron resultados tan interesantes como se esperaba; se trataba de un ajuar cerámico muy homogéneo, fechable en un momento situado entre finales del siglo XIII y principios del siglo XIV, es decir, una cerámica que se consideró como “prototipos de piezas nasríes tardías”(CRESSIER, RIERA, RO-SELLÓ,1992: p.8.).
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; they played a key role in connecting diverse trading areas (including Seville, Granada, and Valencia), thanks to their complex trading network. They controlled a wide range of production activities in key places, playing an important role in the transmission of technical know-how, and thereby promoting the reorganization of production activities. This complex process is exemplified by the production of high-quality pottery (regarded as a luxury item).
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 sequence spanning Nasrid repertoires and Early Modern Castilian productions, including instances of both continuity and rupture. The article advances a new statistical methodology to analyze the degree of standardization of these productions, the coefficient of variation.
