“…One of the first questions to be resolved is the choice of an appropriate scale. Taking into account the scalar variability in the natural and agro-rural component of landscapes, this study assumes that scales of heritage landscapes, also in agreement with the considerations of UNESCO, are the intermediate ones (Mata et al, 2012;Mata, 2015). On the other hand, there is the delimitation of the study area.…”

A change in the attitude of society towards nature and landscape (first established in the intellectual sphere and later adopted by institutions and other agents) operates in the evolution of the notion of heritage so that a territorial dimension of this concept emerges. Its consolidation is slow, both in the generalization of actions and in the conceptualization: it finds pioneering manifestations in the second half of the 19th century and is considered to be widespread since UNESCO’s Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Heritage, held in Paris in 1972. The later addition of the cultural landscape figure in the actions by this organization (1992) and the possibility of including mountain areas as World Heritage in a mixed natural-cultural type have stimulated the elaboration of this study. The purpose is to provide keys for the characterization and qualification of a mountain area already considered as a possible candidate in the UNESCO tentative list (Somiedo, NW of Spain) in order to highlight its potential as Word Heritage. Research in this sector is also presented as a test for the development of a model that could serve as a complement for candidacies in other mountain regions with profiles or categories related to the one analyzed here: transhumance and/or trasterminance landscape in Atlantic mountains. The adequacy of Somiedo, particularly Saliencia Valley and Royal Way of La Mesa (somedan strecht) as a linked centennial itinerary, is justified by the diversity of UNESCO criteria that can be met, reflecting the diversity of outstanding features associated with natural and cultural elements and phenomena. The result could be the starting point for a further task: the formulation of concrete measures for the preservation of fundamental material and immaterial elements and the conception of an integral management program.

“…La identificación inicial del patrimonio con bienes monumentales, junto a la propia dificultad -aún no resuelta-de cómo y qué preservar en ámbitos territoriales complejos como los paisajes, explican esa tardía valoración patrimonial (Gómez Mendoza, 2013;Martínez de Pisón, 1983;Mata Olmo, 2008y 2010Mata Olmo et al 2012). Las comunidades locales crean y recrean sus paisajes, pero ello no necesariamente los convierte en paisajes patrimoniales para aquellos que no los habitan y, mucho menos, en paisajes patrimoniales de reconocimiento internacional.…”

Recibido: 1 de marzo del 2015 Enviado a evaluar: 3 de marzo del 2015 Aceptado: 14 de septiembre del 2015 RESUMENLa dehesa española y su homónimo portugués (el montado) son sistemas agrosilvopastoriles mediterrá-neos que proyectan un paisaje excepcional y de elevados valores patrimoniales. Sobre ellos se ciernen nuevas o renovadas amenazas que comprometen su futuro, en un momento (el actual) de creciente revalorización socio-institucional de sus paisajes. Su declaración como paisaje cultural de Unesco puede constituir un potente instrumento para atajar dichas amenazas, pero requiere de la clarificación de ciertos interrogantes relacionados con las escalas. Este artículo se adentra en el valor universal excepcional de la dehesa y propone algunas claves para sustentar su posible incorporación a la Lista de Patrimonio Mundial de Unesco. El análisis se acomete a nivel de tipos de paisaje, pero se avanzan algunos criterios para la selección de ámbitos concretos y representativos susceptibles de integrar una candidatura como "bien en serie".

“…It is important to note that both (a) infrastructural elements and (b) the scenic features of the corridor are generally studied in areas that have undergone little transformation. Most of these studies (Aplin ; Mata and Fernández ; Mata, Meer and de Puente ) focus on more traditional environments where aspects of heritage are more discernible.…”
