Abstract
La reorganización administrativa del territorio (delimitación de
alfoces a las ciudades) y la reestructuración del secano murciano con el reparto de
los rahales andalusíes encontrados por los conquistadores castellanos proyectaron
la colonización del campo tras su integración en la Corona de Castilla a mediados
del siglo XIII; proyecto que no fue posible. El estudio se centra en comprender
a través del conocimiento histórico e historiográfico y de la toponimia-antroponimia la naturaleza económica y social de los rahales andalusíes como espacios
agrarios en poder de las élites aristocráticas y “burguesas” urbanas, así como su
localización cartografiada en sus correspondientes distritos catastrales, lo que fa
cilita su ubicación aproximada. La comparativa colonizadora efectuada sobre el
campo andalusí y castellano permite, pese a las incertidumbres, obtener una serie
de posibilidades cualitativas y cuantitativas acerca del poblamiento y el aprovechamiento del vasto territorio de secano y, en concreto, de las propiedades privadas denominadas rahales que lo articulaban. Finalmente, el impacto que sobre elterritorio causó la efectiva soberanía castellana en la segunda mitad del siglo XIII
se traduciría a la postre en un nuevo paisaje cultural: tierras deshabitadas e incultas, de tránsito y estancia estacionales favorables al flujo y reflujo de la ganadería ovina trashumante.
The administrative reorganization of the territory (delimitation of alfoces to the cities) and the restructuring of the Murcian dry land with the distribution of the Andalusian rahales found by the Castilian conquerors projected the colonization of the countryside after its integration in the Crown of Castile in the middle of the 13th century; project that was not possible. The study focuses on understanding through historical knowledge and the anthroponymy toponymy the economic and social nature of Andalusian rahales as agrarian spaces held by urban aristocratic and “bourgeois” elites, as well as their location mapped in their corresponding districts cadastral, which facilitates its approximate location. The colonizing comparative carried out on the Andalusian and Castilian countryside allows, despite the uncertainties, to obtain a series of qualitative and quantitative possibilities about the settlement and the use of the vast dry land territory and, in particular, of the private properties called rahales that articulated it. Finally, the impact on the territory caused the effective Castilian sovereignty in the second half of the thirteenth century would eventually translate into a new cultural landscape: uninhabited and uncultivated lands, seasonal transit and stay favorable to the ebb and flow of sheep farming migratory.
