- Resum: This doctoral thesis was carried out within the framework of a cultural heritage study programme. Medieval and landscape archaeology methodologies were followed. The aim was the study of Andalusi landscapes on the southern face of Sierra Calderona, the point of contact between the mountainous region and the plains above the horta of Valencia. This local analysis is taken from a European and Mediterranean perspective, along the lines set out by Barceló, Guichard, Kirchner, Guinot, Malpica and others for the analysis of Andalusi rural society and its landscape management. In this regard, the study and cataloguing of Andalusi rural spaces, mostly dedicated to irrigation, but also including dry land agriculture, is intended. This will be achieved through the analysis of the long term evolution of medieval landscapes and the agricultural infrastructures built by medieval societies, assessing their relationship with the settlement pattern. This will involve the examination of the typically Andalusi tribal colonisation and the processes triggered by the feudal conquest. In addition, the study is also oriented towards the development of tools for the preservation of this important item of cultural heritage, its valorisation as a sustainable economic resource and the activation of cultural resources.
