“…Reccopolis is conveniently situated between the Tagus (at the foot of the hill where the city is built) and the Madre Vieja, which was diverted to feed the aqueduct (Henning et al 2019;Martínez Jiménez 2015). These two water courses are constant throughout the year and flow in abundance, making them the ideal candidates from which water for construction was obtained.…”

“…Despite this the list of sites investigated by non‐invasive methods has increased substantially in recent years, in particular with regard to ‘central places’ belonging to Iron Age, Roman period and Late Mediaeval Ages (e.g., Álvarez Martínez et al, 2016; Carreras Monfort, 2016; Fernández‐Álvarez et al, 2017; García‐García et al, 2017; Novo et al, 2016; Ruiz Zapatero et al, 2012; Soto Cañamares, 2016; Torres‐Martínez et al, 2016). However, very few multiperiod sites potentially involving mediaeval occupations have been studied in this way (but see Fernández‐Álvarez et al, 2017; Henning et al, 2019) and there are as yet no examples of similar diagnostic work and analyses having been carried out on single‐period early mediaeval or later‐prehistoric sites, both characterized by weak structural and material evidence.…”

“…325-339. DOI: 10.21138/pgP.2023 Igualmente, muy cerca se encuentran las ruinas de la antigua ciudad regia visigoda de Recópolis, lugar histórico y yacimiento arqueológico relevantes que evidencian que nuestros antepasados detectaron allí un emplazamiento estratégico (Henning et al, 2019). Este valor cultural añadido se reconoce hoy en día al ser transitado el paraje por el Camino Natural del Tajo (etapas 14 y 15), en el seno de la red de caminos naturales que gestiona el Ministerio de Agricultura, Pesca y Alimentación (2020).…”
