Abstract
Se ha observado que hay sistemas de recogida, transporte y distribución de agua de acuíferos no muy profundos respecto a la superficie en zonas áridas y semiáridas del SE de la Península Ibérica. Estos consisten en pozos horizontales (galerías de drenaje), que se conocen con el nombre «galerías con lumbreras» en Murcia y «qanat-s», «fogara-s» y «viaje-s de agua» /»water-trips» en otros lugares. Tras describir y analizar esos sistemas, describimos las condiciones ecotopológicas del área así explotada, subrayando la importancia de tales sistemas como fuentes de agua en el sureste de la Península Ibérica, construidos en una zonsa de isoyetas de 400 milímetros, en la que las galerías con lumbreras son parte de los sistemas de recogida, transporte y distribución de agua. Este sistema permite afrontar y resolver la potencial evapotranspiración y consiguiente pérdida del agua disponible.
It has been observed that there are systems to collect, carry and distribute water from aquifers near the surface in arid and semi-arid environment of the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. These consist of horizontal wells (draining galleries), which are called «galleries with embrasures» in Murcia and «qanat-s», «fogarra-s» and «viaje-s de agua» («water trips») elsewhere. After fi nding and analysing these systems, we shall relate the ecotopological conditions of the area with its exploi-tation, thus emphasising the importance of these systems as water sources.In the South-east of the Iberian Peninsula, framed by the isoyeta of 400 millimeters the galleries with embrasures are a part of the systems to collect, carry and distribute water. That make it possible to face the potential evapotranspiration and the shortage of own resources of water.
