Abstract

The Early Medieval period inheritance and the repopulation of the Southern Duero area, which took place from the late 11th century over an underpopulate and strategical-pressure-subjected territory,  contributed to the development of a specific rural landscape within this space.The vegetation cover consisted of a natural countryside before the Repopulation. In the following centuries it went through several changes and the strengthening of both particular spaces and uses of the land.
