Abstract

Archaeology, which does not understand short times and specific events, offers us no detectable changes that can be ascribed to the events that happened around 1212. Al-Andalus continued its internal development regardless of what happened in Las Navas de Tolosa and only with the Castilian conquest was the process interrupted. In the lands of the south-eastern Iberian Peninsula, we should speak – from an archaeological perspective – of maximum intensity in the slow construction of a violent path of no return, rather than of a major turning point: the conquest and the end of al-Andalus, the imposition of one society on another and the creation of a new world.
