Nekazaritza-paisaien geoarkeologia: Erdi Aroko eta Aro Modernoko terraza-sistema bat Ziga herrian (Baztan, Nafarroa) [Geoarchaeology of agricultural landscapes: a medieval and modern terraced system in the town of Ziga (Baztan, Navarre)]
Abstract
The geoarchaeological research project underway in the Baztan Valley has allowed us to study the construction and development of a terraced agricultural system. This system was built in the Early Middle Ages (5th-6th centuries) and was a key element in shaping Ziga as a stable rural community, as it established a model for relating to local environmental factors. These results pave the way for further research into the agricultural landscapes of Navarre, which should allow for a broader comparative perspective in the future.
