Superar la frontera: Mecanismos de integración territorial entre el cea y el pisuerga en el siglo X

Abstract

The different territorial structures that developed in the region between the Cea and the Pisuerga rivers during the 10th century were the outcome of particular processes in the production of space. The study of their formalization within the astur-leonese institutional framework will help us to analyze the political resources and mechanisms employed by both the monarchy and the main regional elites in order to strengthen their power. Ultimately, it will help us to get a better understanding of the processes of territorial integration that took place as the astur-leonese kingdom expanded over the Duero plateau during the Early Middle Ages.
