Description
Summary:This study examines the copper-based artefacts found in the excavations of the dumping site found in the fortress of La Estrella in Montiel (Ciudad Real), located in the eastern area of the castle’s gateway called el Hierro, along with a stratigraphy linked to the last moments of the fortress’ activity in the Late Middle Ages. We focus, in particular, on the set of pieces related to the clothing, jaeces (horse embellishments) and ornamentation. The exceptional nature of the find in an archaeological context allows us to contribute to the knowledge of medieval material culture –specifically metallic culture– in the Iberian Peninsula.
