Abstract

In this article we present the study of Islamic fortifications in a rural context through the case of Colomera Castle, which lies in the western mountains of the province of Granada. In this study we will deal with exposing different documentary and material evidence, which suggests a constructive historical evolution of the castle during medieval times. This will present some suggestive hypotheses for understanding the role and function attributed to societies that generated such changes in its configuration.
