    (Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2021-01-21) Moreno Díaz del Campo, Francisco; Fernández Izquierdo, Francisco; Gómez Vozmediano, Miguel; Mejías Moreno, Miguel
    [EN] In the centre of Spain, Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park has been a protected natural area since 1973. During the pre-industrial era this reserve was known as the Real Dehesa de Zacatena and was enclosed by the Order of Calatrava and later managed by the Crown. Hispanic Monarchy. Due to its economic potential, the conservation of the Dehesa was one of the main concerns of its owners. Thanks to this, the historical documentation inform us about the protection measures in Zacatena since the XVIth century. The joint study of all these sources allows us to reconstruct in a very reliable way the natural landscape of the Dehesa, its extension and evolution. Visits, ordinances, descriptions complaints, and lawsuits allow us to understand one of the main pillars of the enclave: its natural patrimony, which in turn is the basis of the rich cultural and architectural heritage also preserved in the area.

    (Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2021-01-21) Moreno Díaz del Campo, Francisco; Fernández Izquierdo, Francisco; Gómez Vozmediano, Miguel
    [EN] During the Early Modern Times, Zacatena Medow (nowadays Las Tablas de Daimiel National Park) provided a lot of income to the Hispanic Monarchy, its owner since the early 16th century. The area had a very rich flora and fauna used by locals to collect firewood or to hunt and fish. In fact, Zacatena existed for centuries thanks to its pastures, but the Medow had another peculiarity: water. Due to this, in its area of influence, architectural infrastructures were built and located that were used to take advantage of the water resources of the Guadiana and Cigüela rivers. Among those constructions (many of which date back to the Muslim era) water mills were especially important. Historical documentation allows us to follow the evolution of these buildings. The authors intend to show the relevance of the written sources as a complement to the field work in order to reconstruct and know the architectural heritage of the place.
