Abstract

The necessity of Defense is the fundamental reason that animates the nasrid kings to build or fortify their cities. To evaluate the functional sense of military architecture of the Kingdom of Granada, it is essential to analyze the strategic enclaves and borders that it contains. This study focuses on the city of Archidona where the following special aspects will be treated: historiographical analysis of the city; historical approach of the zone from a geographical, fisical and evolutionary perspective; and the acknowledgment of the site’s difensive structure of the mentioned Villa.
